Penny Lane
there is a barber
Showing photographs of every head
he's had the pleasure to have known
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
Trumpet Solo
Penny Lane is in my ears and in my eyes
Four of fish and finger pies
In summer, meanwhile back
Behind the shelter
In the middle of a roundabout
A pretty nurse
Is selling poppies from a tray
And though she feels as if she's in a play
She is anyway
Penny Lane
The barber shaves another customer
We see the banker
Sitting waiting for a trim
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.
