DEAR PRUDENCE
(Lennon-McCartney)
1968


Written by John for Prudence Farrow, the younger sister of Mia Farrow.  Both 
sisters were in Rishikesh at the same time as the Beatles.  Prudence, 
against the advice of the Maharishi, would spend unduly long periods in 
meditation, so much so that she was assigned a full time nurse.  English 
post punk band Siouxsie and the Banshees took the song into the Top 10 in 
1983.



Dear Prudence won't you come out to play
Dear Prudence greet the brand new day
The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful and so are you
Dear Prudence won't you come out to play


Dear Prudence open up your eyes
Dear Prudence see the sunny skies
      The wind is low, the birds will sing that you are part of everything
(Ah)
Dear Prudence won't you open up your eyes
(Ah)


Look around, round
     (Round, round, round, round, round)
(Round, round, round, round, round)
Look around, round, round
     (Round, round, round, round, round)
(Round, round, round, round, round)
Look around
     (Ah)


Dear Prudence let me see you smile
Dear Prudence like a little child
      The clouds will be a daisy chain, so let me see you smile again
(Ah)
Dear Prudence won't you let me see you smile
Dear Prudence won't you come out to play
Dear Prudence to greet the brand new day
      The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful and so are you
(Ah)
Dear Prudence won't you come out to play
