BEATLES - Penny Lane lyrics

rate me

In penny lane there is a barber showing photographs<br>Of every head he's had the pleasure to know.<br>And all the people that come and go<br>Stop and say hello.<br><br>On the corner is a banker with a motorcar,<br>The little children laugh at him behind his back.<br>And the banker never wears a mack<br>In the pouring rain, very strange.<br><br>Penny lane is in my ears and in my eyes.<br>There beneath the blue suburban skies<br>I sit, and meanwhile back<br><br>In penny lane there is a fireman with an hourglass<br>And in his pocket is a portrait of the queen.<br>He likes to keep his fire engine clean,<br>It's a clean machine.<br><br>Penny lane is in my ears and in my eyes.<br>A four of fish and finger pies<br>In summer, meanwhile back<br><br>Behind the shelter in the middle of a roundabout<br>The pretty nurse is selling poppies from a tray<br>And tho' she feels as if she's in a play<br>She is anyway.<br><br>In penny lane the barber shaves another customer,<br>We see the banker sitting waiting for a trim.<br>And then the fireman rushes in<br>From the pouring rain, very strange.<br><br>Penny lane is in my ears and in my eyes.<br>There beneath the blue suburban skies<br>I sit, and meanwhile back.<br>Penny lane is in my ears and in my eyes.<br>There beneath the blue suburban skies,<br>Penny lane.
