Lyrics

[Verse 1] 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 hello [Verse 2] 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 [Chorus] Penny Lane is in my ears and in my eyes There beneath the blue suburban skies I sit and meanwhile back [Verse 3] 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 [Piccolo trumpet solo] [Chorus] Penny Lane is in my ears and in my eyes Four of fish and finger pies In summer, meanwhile back [Verse 4] 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 [Verse 5] 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 [Chorus] Penny Lane is in my ears and in my eyes There beneath the blue suburban skies I sit, and meanwhile back [Chorus] Penny Lane is in my ears and in my eyes There beneath the blue suburban skies Penny Lane [Outro] A suitable ending, I think!
