Ah, look at all the lonely peopleAh, look at all the lonely people
Eleanor RigbyPicks up the rice in the church where a wedding has beenLives in a dreamWaits at the windowWearing a face that she keeps in a jar by the doorWho is it for?
All the lonely peopleWhere do they all come from?All the lonely peopleWhere do they all belong?
Father McKenzieWriting the words of a sermon that no-one will hearNo-one comes nearLook at him workingDarning his socks in the night when there's nobody thereWhat does he care?
All the lonely peopleWhere do they all come from?All the lonely peopleWhere do they all belong?
Ah, look at all the lonely peopleAh, look at all the lonely people
Eleanor RigbyDied in the church and was buried along with her nameNobody cameFather McKenzieWiping the dirt from his hands as he walks from the graveNo-one was saved
All the lonely people (Ah, look at all the lonely people)Where do they all come from?All the lonely people (Ah, look at all the lonely people)Where do they all belong?

When I wake up early in the morningLift my head, I'm still yawningWhen I'm in the middle of a dreamStay in bed, float upstream (float upstream)

Everybody seems to think I'm lazyI don't mind; I think they're crazyRunning everywhere at such a speedTill they find there's no need (there's no need)
Please don't spoil my dayI'm miles awayAnd after allI'm only sleeping
Keeping an eye on the world going by my windowTaking my time
Lying there and staring at the ceilingWaiting for a sleepy feeling

Each day just goes so fast I turn around, it's past You don't get time to hang a sign on me Love me while you can Before I'm a dead old man
A life time is so short A new one can't be bought But what you've got means such a lot to me Make love all day long Make love singing songs
Make love all day long Make love singing songs
There's people standing round Who'll screw you in the ground They'll fill you in with all their sins, you'll see
I'll make love to you If you want me to

In the town where I was born Lived a man who sailed to sea And he told us of his life In the land of submarines So we sailed on to the sun Till we found a sea of green And we lived beneath the waves In our yellow submarine
We all live in a yellow submarine Yellow submarine, yellow submarine We all live in a yellow submarine Yellow submarine, yellow submarine
And our friends are all aboard Many more of them live next door And the band begins to play
We all live in a yellow submarine Yellow submarine, yellow submarine We all live in a yellow submarine Yellow submarine, yellow submarine
Spoken:Full speed ahead, Mr. Boatswain, full speed ahead Full speed ahead it is, SirCut the cable, drop the cable Aye-aye, Sir, aye-ayeCaptain, captain
As we live a life of easeEvery one of us (every one of us) has all we need (has all we need)Sky of blue (sky of blue) and sea of green (sea of green)In our yellow (in our yellow) submarine (submarine, a-ha!)

Tell me that you've got everything you wantAnd your bird can sing But you don't get me You don't get me
You'll say you've seen seven wonders And your bird is green But you can't see me You can't see me
When your prized possessions Start to weigh you down Look in my direction I'll be 'roundI'll be 'round
When your bird is broken Will it bring you down?You may be awoken I'll be 'roundI'll be 'round
You tell me that you heard every sound there is And your bird can swing But you can't hear me You can't hear me
