Beatles - A Day In The Life (2) Lyrics
============================================================= Beatles - A Day In The Life (takes 1, 2 and take 6 overdub) ============================================================= (John Lennon, Paul McCartney) Lead Vocals: John Lennon and Paul McCartney (take 1) [Not the micro of the piano's quite low, is it? Just keep like the maracas. You know all those pianos. OK, you're on.] [Sugar plum fairy, sugar plum fairy.] (take 2) I read the news today oh boy About a lucky man who made the grade 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 [4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24] (take 6 overdub) 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 Everybody spoke and I went into a dream [Oh shit!] (take 2) 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 Albert Hall I'd love to turn you... (crossfade into orchestral crescendos) [Really, I... See, the worst thing about doing this about that we're doing tonight, like this is, I think, at first people, sort of, a bit suspicious, you know, come on, what you are up to?] (fade out)
