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
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 hourglass 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 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 And 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
