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 have 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 my 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
