paul mccartney - penny lane lyrics
in penny lane there is a barber showing photographs
of every head he’s had the pleasure to know.
and all the people that come and go
stop and say h-llo.
on the corner is a banker with a motorcar,
the little children laugh at him behind his back.
and the banker never wears a mack
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 hourgl-ss
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 a roundabout
the pretty nurse is selling poppies from a tray
and tho’ 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.
