The Beatles Lyrics (Take 2)

[The Beatles]

Blue Jay Way

here's a fog upon L.A.

And my friends have lost their way

We'll be over soon they said

Now they've lost themselves instead

Please don't be long please don't you be very long

Please don't be long for I may be asleep

Well it only goes to show

And I told them where to go

Ask a policeman on the street

There's so many there to meet

Please don't be long please don't you be very long

Please don't be long for I may be asleep

Now it's past my bed I know

And I'd really like to go

Soon will be the breath of day

Sitting here in Blue Jay Way

Please don't be long please don't you be very long

Please don't be long for I may be asleep

Please don't be long please don't you be very long

Please don't be long

Please don't be long please don't you be very long

Please don't be long

Please don't be long please don't you be very long

Please don't be long

Don't be long, don't be long, don't be long

Don't be long, don't be long, don't be long

[The Beatles]

I Forgot To Remember To Forget (live at the BBC)

forgot to remember to forget her

I can't seem to get her off my mind

I thought I'd never miss her

But I've found out somehow

I think about her almost all the time



Well the day she went away

I made myself a promise

That I'd soon forget we'd ever met

But something sure is wrong

Cos I'm so blue and lonely

I forgot to remember to forget



Well the day she went away

I made myself a promise

That I'd soon forget we'd ever met

But something sure is wrong

Cos I'm so blue and lonely

I forgot to remember to forget

[The Beatles]

I Feel Fine (live at the BBC)

aby's good to me, you know

She's happy as can be, you know

She said so

I'm in love with her and I feel fine



Baby says she's mine, you know

She tells me all the time, you know

She said so

I'm in love with her and I feel fine



I'm so glad that she's my little girl

She's so glad, she's telling all the world

That her baby buys her things, you know

He buys her diamond rings, you know

She said so

She's in love with me and I feel fine, mmm



Baby says she's mine, you know

She tells me all the time, you know

She said so

I'm in love with her and I feel fine



I'm so glad that she's my little girl

She's so glad, she's telling all the world

That her baby buys her things, you know

He buys her diamond rings, you know

She said so

She's in love with me and I feel fine

She's in love with me and I feel fine, mmm, mmm

[The Beatles]

Too Much Monkey Business (live at the BBC)

unning to and fro, hard

Working at the mail

Never fail

Get the mail

Yeah, some rotten deal

Ow!



Too much monkey business

Too much monkey business

Too much monkey business for me to invite them again



Say me

Talking to me

Tryin' to run me up a creek

She used to buy one

Try to pay me again next week

Ow!



Too much monkey business

Too much monkey business

Too much monkey business for me to invite them again



Long-haired, good-looking

Trying to get me hooked

Or me to marry

Settle down

Get the horn by the bull

Ow!



Too much monkey business

Too much monkey business

Too much monkey business for me to invite them again



Mediocre money

Being fighting in the hall

Army bunk, army go

Army chow, army cook

Ow!



Too much monkey business

Too much monkey business

Too much monkey business for me to invite them again



Same thing every day

Getting up, going to school

No need to make complaining

My objection's overruled

Ow!



Too much monkey business

Too much monkey business

Too much monkey business for me to invite them again



Working in the filling station

Too many tires

Wipe the windows

Check the tire

Check the oil and all the gas

Ow!



Too much monkey business

Too much monkey business

Don't want your moderation, get away, leave me

[The Beatles]

Act Naturally

hey're gonna put me in the movies

They're gonna make a big star out of me

We'll make a film about a man that's sad and lonely

And all I gotta do is act naturally



Well, I'll bet you I'm gonna be a big star

Might win an Oscar you can never tell

The movies gonna make me a big star

Cos I can play the part so well



Well I hope you'll come and see me in the movies

Then I know that you will plainly see

The biggest fool that ever hit the big time

And all I gotta do is act naturally



We'll make the scene about a man that's sad and lonely

And begging down upon his bended knee

I'll play the part and I won't need rehearsing

All I have to do is act naturally



Well, I'll bet you I'm gonna be a big star

Might win an Oscar you can never tell

The movies gonna make me a big star

Cos I can play the part so well



Well I hope you'll come and see me in the movies

Then I know that you will plainly see

The biggest fool that ever hit the big time

And all I gotta do is act naturally

[The Beatles]

Nowhere Man

e's a real Nowhere Man

Sitting in his nowhere land

Making all his nowhere plans for nobody



Doesn't have a point of view

Knows not where he's going to

Isn't he a bit like you and me?



Nowhere Man, please listen (Ah la la la la)

You don't know what you're missing (Ah la la la la)

Nowhere Man (Ah la la la la)

The world is at your command (Ah la la la la la)



He's as blind as he can be

Just sees what he wants to see

Nowhere Man, can you see me at all?



Nowhere Man, don't worry (Ah la la la la)

Take your time, don't hurry (Ah la la la la)

Leave it all (Ah la la la la)

Till somebody else lends you a hand (Ah la la la la)



Doesn't have a point of view

Knows not where he's going to

Isn't he a bit like you and me?



Nowhere Man, please listen (Ah la la la la)

You don't know what you're missing (Ah la la la la)

Nowhere Man (Ah la la la la)

The world is at your command (Ah la la la la)



He's a real Nowhere Man

Sitting in his nowhere land

Making all his nowhere plans for nobody

Making all his nowhere plans for nobody

Making all his nowhere plans for nobody

[The Beatles]

I'll Be Back

ou know if you break my heart I'll go

But I'll be back again

Cos I told you once before goodbye

But I came back again



I love you so

I'm the one who wants you

Yes, I'm the one

Who wants you, oh ho, oh ho, oh



You could find better things to do

Than to break my heart again

This time I will try to show that I'm

Not trying to pretend



I thought that you would realize

That if I ran away from you

That you would want me too

But I got a big surprise

Oh ho, oh ho, oh



You could find better things to do

Than to break my heart again

This time I will try to show that I'm

Not trying to pretend



I wanna go

But I hate to leave you

You know I hate to

Leave you, oh ho, oh ho, oh



You, if you break my heart I'll go

But I'll be back again

[The Beatles]

All You Need Is Love

Love is all you need



All you need is love

Nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be

All you need is love, love

Love is all you need



All you need is love (All together, now!)

Yesterday (live at the Blackpool Night Out show)

Thank you very much, thank you.



We'd like to do something now which

we've never ever done before

and it's a track off our new LP.



New LP...



And this song's called "Yesterday".

And so for Paul McCartney of Liverpool,

opportunity knocks!



Thank you, George.]



Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away

Now it looks as though they're here to stay

Oh, I believe in yesterday



Suddenly, I'm not half the man I used to be

There's a shadow hanging over me

Oh, yesterday came suddenly



Why she had to go I don't know she wouldn't say

I said something wrong, now I long for yesterday



Yesterday, love was such an easy game to play

Now I need a place to hide away

Oh, I believe in yesterday



Why she had to go I don't know she wouldn't say

I said something wrong, now I long for yesterday



Yesterday, love was such an easy game to play

Now I need a place to hide away

Oh, I believe in yesterday

Mm mm mm mm mm mm mm

[The Beatles]

Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da (alternate version)

Yes sir, take one of the Magic Jumbo Band!]



Desmond has a barrow in the market place

Molly is the singer in a band

Desmond says to Molly "girl I like your face"

And Molly says this as she takes him by the hand



Ob-la-di ob-la-da life goes on bra

La-la how the life goes on

Ob-la-di ob-la-da life goes on bra

La-la how the life goes on



Desmond takes a trolly to the jewellers stores

Buys a twenty carat golden ring

Takes it back to Molly waiting at the door

And when he gives it to her she begins to sing



Ob-la-di ob-la-da life goes on bra

La-la how the life goes on

Ob-la-di ob-la-da life goes on bra

La-la how the life goes on



In a couple of years they have built

A home sweet home

With a couple of kids running in the yard

Of Desmond and Molly Jones



Happy ever after in the market place

Desmond lets the children lend a hand

Molly stays at home and does her pretty face

And in the evening she's a singer with the band



Ob-la-di ob-la-da life goes on bra

La-la how the life goes on

Ob-la-di ob-la-da life goes on bra

La-la how the life goes on



In a couple of years they have built

A home sweet home

With a couple of kids running in the yard

Of Desmond and Molly Jones



Happy ever after in the market place

Desmond lets the children lend a hand

Molly stays at home and does her pretty face

And in the evening she's a singer with the band



Ob-la-di ob-la-da life goes on bra

La-la how the life goes on

Ob-la-di ob-la-da life goes on bra

La-la how the life goes on

Ob-la-di-la-da



[Ob-la-di-la-da, brother.]

Not Guilty (take 102)

take 102)

Not guilty

For getting in your way, while you try to steal the day

Not guilty

I'm not nodding for the rest, I'm not trying to steal you vest

I end up trying to be smart I only want what I can get

I'm really sorry for your aging head, but like you heard me said

Not guilty



Though you signing me a writ, while I'm trying to do my bit

I don't expect to take your hoard I only want what I can get

I'm really sorry that you're underfed, but like you heard me said

Not guilty



Not guilty

For looking like a freak, making friends with every Sikh

Not guilty

For leading you astray, on the road to Masalay

I won't upset the apple cart I only want what I can get

I'm really sorry that you've been mislead, but like you heard me said

Not guilty

Christmas 1968

ello, this is a big "Hi" and a sincere merry Christmas from yours truly, Ringo Starr.



Happy new year, happy Christmas

Happy Easter, happy autumn

Happy Micklemus, everybody

Happy Christmas, everybody to you



I'd like to wish everybody happy Christmas

This year of 1968 going to 69

Happy Christmas, happy new year

All the best to you from here



Ah ha!



I'd like to wish everybody

Happy Christmas, happy new year

From there to here

Happy new year, happy new year

Happy new year, happy new year



When I get to the bottom

I go back to the top of the slide

Where I stop and I turn and I go for a ride

Till I get to the bottom and I see you again



Once upon a time, there were two ballons called Jock and Yono. They were strictly in love, bound to happen in a million years. They were together man. Unfortunate time table, they seemed to have previous experience which kept calling them one way or another. You know how it is. But they battled on against overwhelming oddities. Including some of their beast friends. Being in love, they clung together even more man. But some of the poisonous monsters' outdated boss. Lordy ape claws did stick slightly and they occasionally had to resort to the dry cleaners, luckily. This did not kill them and they weren't banned from the Olympic Games. They lived hopefully ever after and who could blame them?



Well, here we are again, another Fab Christmas. Christmas time is here again, ain't been around since last year. And we'd like to take this opportunity, all the way from America, to say happy Christmas to you our faithful, beloved fans all over the world who have made our life worth living. And over here I have Mr. Malcolm Evans who through thick and thin would surely like to say a word of greeting at this festive occasion.



"Merry Christmas children everywhere."



At the the first stroke, it will be...



...Ringo Starr, Thank you!



"Good evening."



"Hello me dear. I didn't know you were coming."



"I'm not surprised."



"Well, I am! Certainly am!"



"I would have thought so myself."



"Well, if you ask me, I think it's insane."



"Occasionally."



"Yes, me too. Twice a week sometimes."



"Fourteen and six."



"Nineteen and five to save me if you don't mind."



"Yes, I know."



"Don't you say yes to me! I'm telling you!"



"This is a private line, you know."



"Private line? I've been on this line for two years."



"Well, it's my proud pleasure tonight to introduce one of the most versatile performers in our career. And he's come all the way from Stokely Carmichel's-on-sea. And I hope you're going to like him. Let's give him a big hand."



Happy new year, happy Christmas

Happy Easter, happy autumn

Happy Micklemus, everybody

Happy Christmas, everybody to you



Once upon a pool table there lived a short-haired butcher's boy by the way of Ostergard. It comes in Sentencepoolararrowic Airport her father was in a long story cut short in the middle of his life sentence. We're indebted to the Colloquial office for its immediate disposal of her honorwitz, including, I might add, hoc virtallo a totem. On the other handbag I mean to say l'amoure ne soome tu joure realistic, stricitly speaking. For this film is about an hourglass houseboat. The full meaning of Winchester Cathedral defies description. Their loss war our gainsborough nil. The sound of a manservantile defectively lasting barred up in a love-dizzy gar-di-dell time. How close can you gettysburg and ever underly council ya originally a birdbath feeling...



Cut!



"We have a special guest here this evening, Mr. Tiny Tim. I'd like to ask him to say a few words."



"Oh hello to you nice Beatles. Ah it's so wonderful, what a thrill it is talking here. Ah in Mr. Harrison's presence, Mr. Weiss's presence, and all his nice wonderful friends. And the thing is, I just wanna say merry Christmas to you all. And ah, a happy New Year."



"Thank you, Tiny. Would you like to sing us a little song?"



"Ah I'd love to. Here's a song I did in 1966 in front of Miss Jill for the first time. And I did this in Albert Hall, and what a thrill it was, ah, to this then, and now. Exactly the way I did it then."



He's a, ooh, real nowhere man

Living in his nowhere land

Making all his nowhere plans for nobody



Hasn't got a point of view

Knows not where he's going to

Isn't he a bit like you and me?



Nowhere man, (Yes?) don't worry

Take you time, don't hurry

Nowhere man, the world's at your command, ooh



He's a, huh huh, real nowhere man

Living in his nowhere land

Making all his nowhere plans for nobody, ooh, ooh



"Thank you! Tiny, thank you! And God bless you, Tiny."



"God bless you all. Oh, God bless you all."

Mean Mr. Mustard (demo)

demo)

Mean Mister Mustard sleeps in the park

Shaves in the dark trying to save paper

Sleeps in a hole in the road

Saving up to buy some clothes

Keeps a ten-bob note up his nose

Such a mean old man

Such a mean old man



His sister Shirley works in a shop

She never stops, she's a go-getter

Takes him out to look at the queen

It's the only place that he's ever been

Always shouts out something obscene

You such a dirty old man

You such a dirty old man



Hey, mean Mister Mustard, such a dirty dirty

Mean Mister Mustard, such a dirty dirty

Mean Mister Mustard, such a dirty dirty man



Mean Mister Mustard sleeps in the park

Shaves in the dark trying to save paper

Sleeps in a hole in the road

Saving up to buy some clothes

Keeps a ten-bob note up his nose

Such a mean old man

Such a mean old man
