In Penny Lane there is a barber showing
photographs
of ev'ry head he's had the pleasure to
know.
And all the people that come and go
stop and say "hello".
On the corner is a banker with a
motorcar,
the little children laugh at him behind
his back.
And the banker never wears a mac
in the pouring rain - very strange.
Penny Lane is in my ears and in my eyes,
there beneath the blue suburban skies
I sit, and meanwhile back
in Penny Lane there is a fireman with an
hourglass
and in his pocket is a portrait of the
Queen.
He likes to keep his fire engine clean,
it's a clean machine.
Penny Lane is in my ears and in my eyes,
a four of fish and finger pies
in summer meanwhile back
behind the shelter in the middle of the
round-about
the pretty nurse is selling poppies from a
trtay.
And though she feels as if she's in a play
she is anyway.
In Penny Lane, the barber shaves another
customer, we see the banker sitting
waiting for a trim
and then the fireman rushes in
from the pouring rain - very strange.
Penny Lane is in my ears and in my eyes,
there beneath the blue suburban skies
I sit, and meanwhile back
Penny Lane is in my ears and in my eyes,
there beneath the blue suburban skies ...
Penny Lane
