Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band, Sit back and let the evening go. Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely, Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely, Sgt. 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 home, 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 Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band. Billy Shears Paul McCartney A Little Help From My Friends 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. I get by with a little help from my friends, I get high with a little help from my friends. Going to 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, Do you need anybody, I need somebody to love. Could it be anybody I want somebody to love. Would you believe in 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, Do you need anybody, I just need somebody to love, Could it be anybody, I want somebody to love. I get by with a little help from my friends, Yes I get by with a little help from my friends, With a little help from my friends. John Lennon & Paul McCartney 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, Follow her down to a bridge by a fountain Where her rocking house 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, 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. John Lennon Getting Better I used to get mad at my school The teachers that taught me weren’t cool You’re holding me down, turning me round Filling me up with your rules. I’ve got to admit it’s getting better It’s getting better since you’ve been mine. I used to be an angry young man Hiding my 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 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. I admit it’s getting better A little better all the time Yes I admit it’s getting better It’s getting better since you’ve been mine. Paul McCartney 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 the 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. See the people standing there who disagree and never win And wonder why they don’t get in my door. I’m painting my room in a colorful way And when my mind is wandering There I will go. And it really doesn’t matter if I’m wrong I’m right Where I belong. Silly people run around they worry me And never ask me shy they don’t get past my door. I’m taking the time for a number of things That weren’t important yesterday And still go. I’m fixing a hole where the rain gets in And stops my mind from wandering Where it will go. Paul McCartney 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 hankerchief 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. Bye, bye 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 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. Bye, bye 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 wrong to have fun) Fun is one thing that money can’t buy Something inside that was always denied For so many years. Bye, bye She’s leaving home bye, bye John Lennon & Paul McCartney Being For The Benefit Of Mr. Kite!

John Lennon 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. 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. Try to realise 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 talking - about the love that’s gone so cold and the people, Who gain the world lose their soul - they don’t know - they can’t see - 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. George Harrison 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. You’ll be older too, 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 a sweater by the fireside Sunday morning 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 Grandchildren on your knee Vera, Chuck, and Dave Send me a postcard, drop 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 for evermore Will you still need me, will you still feed me, When I’m sixty- four. Paul McCartney Lovely Rita 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 meter maid, May I inquire discreetly, When are you free, To take some tea with me. 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 near made it, Sitting on the sofa with a sister or two. Oh, lovely Rita meter maid, Where would I be without you, Give us a wink and make me think of you. Paul McCartney Good Morning, Good Morning Nothing to do to save his life call his wife in Nothing to say but what a day how’s your boy been Nothing to do it’s up to you I’ve got nothing to say but it’s O.K. Good morning, good morning. 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 like a ruin Everyone you see is half asleep. And you’re on your own you’re in the street. Good morning, good morning. After a while you start to smile now you feel cool. Then you decide to take a walk by the old school. Nothing had changed it’s still the same I’ve got nothing to say but it’s O.K. Good morning, good morning. People running round it’s five o’clock. Everywhere in town is getting dark. Everyone you see is full of life. It’s time for tea and meet the wife. Somebody need to know the time, glad that I’m here. Watching the skirts you start to flirt now you’re in gear. Go to a show you hope she goes. I’ve got nothing to say but it’s O.K. Good morning, good morning. John Lennon Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band (Reprise) We’re Sergeant Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band We hope you have enjoyed the show Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band We’re sorry but it’s time to go. Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band We’d like to thank you once again Sgt. Pepper’s one and only Lonely Hearts Club Band It’s getting very near the end Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band Paul McCartney A Day In The Life 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 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, Somebody spoke and I went into a dream 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 on John Lennon & Paul McCartney
