Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band Lyrics
Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band
It was twenty years ago today,
Sergeant pepper taught the band to play,
They've been going in and out of style,
But they're guaranteed to raise a smile,
So may I introduce to you
The act you've known for all these years
Sergeant pepper's lonely hearts club band
We're sergeant pepper's lonely hearts club band,
We hope you will enjoy the show,
Sergeant pepper's lonely hearts club band,
Sit back and let the evening go,
Sergeant pepper's lonely, sergeant pepper's lonely,
Sergeant pepper's lonely hearts club band
It's wonderful to be here it's certainly a thrill,
You're such a lovely audience,
We'd like to take you home with us we'd love to take you home,
I don't really want to stop the show,
But I thought that you might like to know,
That the singer's going to sing a song,
And he wants you all to sing along,
So let me introduce to you,
The one and only billy shears,
And sergeant pepper's lonely hearts club band
With A Little Help From My Friends
Billy shears,
What would you think if I sang out of tune,
Would you stand up and walk out on me,
Lend me your ears and i'll sing you a song,
And i'll try not to sing out of key,
Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends,
Mmm, I get high with a little help from my friends,
Mmm, i'm gonna try with a little help from my friends
What do I do when my love is away,
Does it worry you to be alone
How do I feel by the end of the day,
Are you sad because you're on your own
No, I get by with a little help from my friends,
Mmm, get high with a little help from my friends,
Mmm, gonna to try with a little help from my friends
Do you need, anybody, I need somebody to love,
Could it be, anybody, I want somebody to love,
Would you believe in a love at first sight,
Yes i'm certain that it happens all the time,
What do you see when you turn out the light,
I can't tell you but I know, it's mine,
Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends,
Mmm, get high with a little help from my friends,
Oh, i'm gonna try with a little help from my friends
Do you need, anybody, I need somebody to love,
Could it be, anybody, I want somebody to love,
Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends,
Mmm, gonna try with a little help from my friends,
Ohh, I get high with a little help from my friends,
Yes I get by with a little help from my friends,
With a little help from my frieeends
Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds
Picture yourself in a boat on a river,
With tangerine trees, and marmalade skies,
Somebody calls you, you answer quite slowly,
A girl with kaleidoscope eyes
Cellophane flowers of yellow and green,
Towering over your head,
Look for the girl with the sun in her eyes,
And she's gone
Lucy in the sky with diamonds,
Lucy in the sky with diamonds,
Lucy in the sky with diamonds, ahhhh
Follow her down to a bridge, by a fountain,
Where rocking horse people, eat marshmallow pies,
Everyone smiles as you drift past the flowers,
That grow so incredibly high
Newspaper taxis appear on the shore,
Waiting to take you away,
Climb in the back with your head in the clouds,
And you're gone
Lucy in the sky with diamonds,
Lucy in the sky with diamonds,
Lucy in the sky with diamonds, ahhhh
Picture yourself on a train in a station,
With plasticine porters, with looking glass ties,
Suddenly someone is there at, the turnstile,
The girl with kaleidoscope eyes
Lucy in the sky with diamonds, lucy in the sky with diamonds,
Lucy in the sky with diamonds, ahhhh,
Lucy in the sky with diamonds, lucy in the sky with diamonds,
Lucy in the sky with diamonds, ahhhh,
Lucy in the sky with diamonds, lucy in the sky with diamonds,
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Getting Better
It's getting better all the time,
I used to get mad at my school, (No I can't complain)
The teachers who taught me weren't cool, (No I can't complain)
You're holding me down, (Ohh)
Turning me round, (Ohh)
Filling me up with your rules, (Ooh)
I've got to admit it's getting better, (Better)
A little better, all the time, (It can't get no worse)
I have to admit, it's getting better, (Better)
It's getting better, since you've, been mine
Me used to be a angry young man,
Me hiding me head in the sand,
You gave me the word, I finally heard,
I'm doing the best that I can
I've got to admit it's getting better, (Better)
A little better, all the time, (It can't get no worse)
I have to admit, it's getting better, (Better)
It's getting better, since you've, been mine,
Getting so much better all the time,
It's getting better all the time,
Better, better, better,
It's getting better all the time,
Better, better, better
I used to be cruel to my woman
I beat her and kept, her apart from the things that she loved,
Man I was mean but i'm changing my scene
And i'm doing the best that I can (Ooh)
I admit it's getting better,
A little better, all the time, (It can't get no worse)
Yes, I admit it's getting better, it's getting better,
Since you've, been mine,
Getting so much better all the time,
It's getting better all the time,
Better, better, better,
It's getting better all the time,
Better, better, better,
Getting so much better all the time
Fixing A Hole
I'm fixing a hole, where the rain gets in,
And stops my mind from wandering, where it will go
I'm filling the cracks, that ran through the door,
And kept my mind from wandering, where it will go
And it really doesn't matter, if i'm wrong i'm right
Where I belong i'm right where I belong,
See the people standing there, who disagree, and never win,
And wonder why they don't get in my door,
I'm painting the room, in a colourful way,
And when my mind is wandering,
There I will go, (Ooh ah) hey, hey, hey
(Oooh..)
And it really doesn't matter, if i'm wrong i'm right,
Where I belong i'm right, where I belong,
(Do, do, do..)
Silly people run around, they worry me,
And never ask me why they don't get past my door,
(Oooh..)
I'm taking the time, for a number of things,
That weren't important, yesterday, and I still go,
I'm fixing a hole where the rain gets in,
Stops my mind from wandering,
Where it will go, where it will go,
I'm fixing a hole where the rain gets in,
Stops my mind from wandering, where it will go
She's Leaving Home
Wednesday morning at five, o'clock as the day begins,
Silently closing her bedroom door,
Leaving the note that she hoped would say more
She goes, downstairs to the kitchen, clutching her handkerchief,
Quietly turning the backdoor key,
Stepping outside she is free
She, (We gave her most of our lives)
Is leaving, (Sacrificed most of our lives)
Home, (We gave her everything money could buy)
She's leaving home after living alone for so many years
Father snores as his wife, gets into her dressing gown,
Picks up the letter that's lying there,
Standing alone at the top of the stairs
She breaks down, and cries to her husband daddy, our baby's gone,
Why would she treat us so thoughtlessly,
How could she do this to me
She, (We never thought of ourselves)
Is leaving, (Never a thought for ourselves)
Home, (We struggled hard all our lives to get by)
She's leaving home after living alone for so many years
Friday morning at nine, o'clock she is far away,
Waiting to keep the appointment she made,
Meeting a man from the motor trade
She, (What did we do that was wrong)
Is having, (We didn't know it was wrong)
Fun, (Fun is the one thing that money can't buy)
Something inside that was always denied for so many years,
She's, leaving home, byebye
Being For The Benefit Of Mr. Kite!
For the benefit of mr. kite,
There will be a show tonight on trampoline,
The hendersons will all be there
Late of pablo-fanques is there what a scene,
Over men and horses hoops and garters
Lastly through a hogshead, of real fire,
In this way mr. k will challenge the world
The celebrated mr. k,
Performs his feat on saturday, at bishopsgate,
The hendersons will dance and sing
As mr. kite flies through the ring don't be late,
Mrs. k assures the public
Their production will be second to none,
And of course henry the horse dances the waltz
The band begins at ten to six
When mr. k performs his tricks without a sound,
And mr. h will demonstrate
Ten somersets he'll undertake, on solid ground,
Having been some days in preparation
A splendid time is guaranteed for all,
And tonight mr. kite is topping the bill
Within You Without You
We were talking, about the space between us all,
And the people, who hide themselves behind a wall, of illusion,
Never glimpse the truth, then it's far too late, when they pass away-a-a,
We were talking, about the love we all could share, when we find it,
To try our best to hold it there, with our love,
With our love, we could save the world, if they only knew-ew-ew
Try to realize it's all within yourself
No one else can make you change,
And to see you're really only very small
And life flows on within you, and without you
We were talking, about the love that's gone so cold, and the people,
Who gain the world and, lose their soul,
They don't know, they can't see-e, are you one of them
When you've seen beyond yourself then you may find
Peace of mind is waiting there,
And the time will come when you see
We're all one and life flows on within you, and without you
When I'm Sixty-Four
When I get older losing my hair,
Many years from now,
Will you still be sending me a valentine,
Birthday greetings bottle of wine,
If i'd been out till quarter to three,
Would you lock the door,
Will you still need me, will you still feed me,
When i'm sixty-four
(Ooooh)
You'll be older too, (Ahhhh)
And if you say the word,
I could stay with, you
I could be handy mending a fuse,
When your lights have gone,
You can knit a sweater by the fireside,
Sunday mornings go for a ride,
Doing the garden digging the weeds,
Who could ask for more,
Will you still need me, will you still feed me,
When i'm sixty-four
Every summer we can rent a cottage,
In the isle of wight, if it's not too dear,
We shall scrimp and save, (Scrimp and save)
Grandchildren on, your knee,
Vera, chuck, and dave
Send me a postcard, drop me a line,
Stating point of view,
Indicate precisely what you mean to say,
Yours sincerely wasting away,
Give me your answer, fill in a form,
Mine forevermore,
Will you still need me, will you still feed me,
When i'm sixty-four, who!
Lovely Rita
Ahhh, lovely rita meter maid,Lovely rita meter maid, lovely rita, meter maid,
Nothing can come between us,
When it gets dark I tow your heart away
Standing by, a parking meter,
When I caught, a glimpse of rita,
Filling in a ticket in her little white book,
In a cap, she looked much older,
And the bag, across her shoulder,
Made her look a little like a military man
(Lovely rita..)
Lovely rita meter maid,
May I inquire discreetly,
When are you free to take some tea with me
Rita
Took her out, and tried to win her,
Had a laugh, and over dinner,
Told her I would really like to see her again,
Got the bill, and rita paid it,
Took her home, I nearly made it,
Sitting on the sofa with a sister or two
Ohh, lovely rita meter maid,
Where would I be without you,
Give us a wink and make me think of you
Lovely rita (Lovely meter maid) meter maid,
(Rita meter maid) lovely rita, meter maid,
Lovely (Oh, lovely rita, meter, meter, maid) rita, meter maid,
Lovely (A-dah, dah, dah) rita, meter maid
(Haa....oh, haa....)
A-dah, dah, dah, a-dah, dah, dah, dah, dah,
Dah, dah, dah, dah, dah, dah,
A-dah, dah, a-dah, dah, dah, woo, woo, oh,
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah (Ohhhh) ah, ah, ah, ah, ah,
Never believe it
Good Morning Good Morning
Good morning, good morning, good morning, good morning,
Good morning-a,
Nothing to do to save his life call his wife in,
Nothing say but what a day how's your boy been,
Nothing to do, it's up to you,
I've got noting to say but it's ok
Good morning, good morning, good morning-a
Going to work don't want to go feeling low down
Heading for home you start to roam then you're in town,
Everybody knows there's nothing doing
Everything is closed it's like a ruin
Everyone you see is half asleep
And you're on your own you're in the street
After a while you start to smile now you feel cool,
Then you decide to take a walk by the old school,
Nothing has changed it's still the same,
I've got nothing to say but it's ok,
Good morning, good morning, good morning-a
People running round it's five o'clock
Everywhere in town it's getting dark
Everyone you see is full of life
It's time for tea and meet the wife
Somebody needs to know the time glad that i'm here,
Watching the skirts you start to flirt no you're in gear,
Go to a show you hope she goes,
I've got nothing to say but it's ok
Good morning, good morning, good,
Good morning, good morning, good,
Good morning, good morning, good,
Good morning, good morning, good,
Guten morgen, guten morgen, gut,
Guten morgen, guten morgen, gut,
Guten morgen, guten morgen, gut,
Guten morgen, guten morgen, gut, ja ja, Guten morgen, guten morgen, gut

A Day In The Life
I read the news today oh boy,
About a lucky man who made the grave,
And though the news was rather sad,
Well I just had to laugh,
I saw the photograph,
He blew his mind out in a car,
He didn't notice that the lights had changed,
A crowd of people stood and stared,
They'd seen his face before,
Nobody was really sure if he was from the house of lords
I saw a film today oh boy,
The english army had just won the war,
A crowd of people turned away,
But I just had to look,
Having read the book,
I'd love to turn, you, on
Woke up, fell out of bed,
Dragged a comb, across my head,
Found my way downstairs and drank a cup,
And looking up, I noticed I was late,
Found my coat, and grabbed my hat,
Made the bus, in seconds flat,
Found my way upstairs and had a smoke,
And somebody spoke and I went into a dream,
Ahhhh..
I read the news today oh boy,
Four thousand holes in blackburn lancashire,
And though the holes were rather small,
They had to count them all,
Now they know how many holes it takes to fill the halbert hall,
I'd love to turn, you, on
(Never could see any other way..)
