help

Help! I need somebody.
Help! Not just anybody.
Help! You know, I need someone, help!

When I was younger, so much younger than today,
I never needed anybody's help in any way.
But now these days are gone, I'm not so self assured
Now I find I've changed my mind, I've opened up the door.

Help me if you can, I'm feeling down
And I do appreciate you being 'round.
Help me, get my feet back on th ground.
Won't you please, please, help me?

And now my life has changed in, oh, so many ways,
My independence seems to vanish in the haze.
But ev'ry now and then I feel so insecure.
I know that I just need you like I've never done before.

Help me if you can, I'm feeling down
And I do appreciate you being 'round.
Help me, get my feet back on th ground.
Won't you please, please, help me?

Help me! Help me!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 


 

 

 

 



 

 

 

 

 

get back

Jo Jo was a man who thought he was a longer,
But, he knew it couldn't last.
Jo Jo left his home in Tucson, Arizona,
For some California grass.

Get back!
Get back!
Get back to where you once belonged.
Get back!
Get back!
Get back to where you once belonged.

Sweet Loretta Martin thought she was a woman,
But, she was another man.
All the girls around her say she's got it coming,
But she gets it while she can.

Get back!
Get back!
Get back to where you once belonged.
Get back!
Get back!
Get back to where you once belonged.

i feel fine

Baby's good to me, you know,
She's happy as can be, you know,
She said so,
I'm in love with her and I feel fine.

Baby says she's mine, you know,
She tells me all the time, you know,
She said so,
I so glad that she's my little girl
She's so glad she's telling all the world

That her baby buys her things, you know.
He buys her diamond rings, you know.
She said so,
She's in love with me and I feel fine.


 

 

 


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Imagine there's no heaven,
It's easy if you try,
No hell below us,
Above us only sky,
Imagine all the people
living for today...

Imagine there's no countries,
It isnt hard to do,
Nothing to kill or die for,
No religion too,
Imagine all the people
living life in peace...

Imagine no possesions,
I wonder if you can,
No need for greed or hunger,
A brotherhood of man,
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world...

You may say I'm a dreamer,
but I'm not the only one,
I hope some day you'll join us,
And the world will live as one.

 

 

 

 


 

 

 

 

i need you

You don't realize how much I need you,
Love you all the time and never leave you.
Please come on back to me.
I'm lonely as can be,
I need you.

Said you had a thing or two to tell me.
How was I to know you would upset me?
I didn't realize
As I looked in your eyes
You told me,
Oh, yes, you told me,
You don't want my lovin' any more.
That's when it hurt me
And feeling like this
I just can't go on any more.

Please remember how I feel about you,
I could never really live without you,
So, come on back and see
Just what you mean to me
I need you.
You told me,
You don't want my lovin' any more.
That's when it hurt me
And feeling like this
I just can't go on any more.

Please remember how I feel about you,
I could never really live without you,
So, come on back and see
Just what you mean to me
I need you.
I need you.
I need you.

 

 

 

 


 

 

 

 

 

 


 

 

 

 

 




lucy in the sky with diamonds

Picture yourself in a boat on a river
With tangerine trees and marmalade skies.
Somebody calls you, you answer quite slowly
A girl with kaleidoscope eyes.

Cellophane flowers of yellow and green,
Towering over your head.
Look for the girl with the sun in her eyes and she's gone.

Lucy in the sky with diamonds,
Lucy in the sky with diamonds,
Lucy in the sky with diamonds.

Follow her down to a bridge by a fountain
Where rocking horse people eat marshmallow pies.
Ev'ryone smiles as you drift past the flowers
That grow so incredibly high.

Newspaper taxis appear on the shore,
Waiting to take you away.
Climb in the back with your head in the clouds and you're gone.

Lucy in the sky with diamonds,
Lucy in the sky with diamonds,
Lucy in the sky with diamonds.

Picture yourself on a train in a station
With plastiline porters with looking-glass ties.
Suddenly someone is there at the turnstile,
The girl with kaleidoscope eyes.

Lucy in the sky with diamonds,
Lucy in the sky with diamonds,
Lucy in the sky with diamonds,
Aaaah,
Lucy in the sky with diamonds,
Lucy in the sky with diamonds,
Lucy in the sky with diamonds,
Aaaah,
Lucy in the sky with diamonds,
Lucy in the sky with diamonds,
Lucy in the sky with diamonds.

 

 

 

 


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

nowhere man

He's a real nowhere man,
Sitting in his nowhere land,
Making all his nowhere plans for nobody.

Doesn't have a point of view,
Knows not where he's going to,
Isn't he a bit like you and me?

Nowhere man, please listen,
You don't know what you're missing,
Nowhere man, the world is at your command.

He's a blind as he can be,
Just sees what he wants to see,
Nowhere man can you see me at all?

Nowhere man, don't worry,
Take your time, don't hurry,
Leave it all till somebody else lends you a hand.

Doesn't have a point of view,
Knows not where he's going to,
Isn't he a bit like you and me?

Nowhere man, please listen,
You don't know what you're missing,
Nowhere man, the world is at your command.

He's a real nowhere man,
Sitting in his nowhere land,
Making all his nowhere plans for nobody,
Making all his nowhere plans for nobody,
Making all his nowhere plans for nobody.

 

 

 


 


 

 

 

 

 

 

she is leaving home

Wedn'sday morning at five o'clock as the day begins,
Silently closing her bedroom door,
Leaving the note that she hoped would say more.
She goes down stairs to the kitchen clutching her hand kerchief.
Quietly turning her back door key,
Stepping outside she is free.

She ( We gave her most of our lives )
Is leaving ( Sacrificed most of our lives )
Home ( We gave her ev'rything money could buy )
She's leaving home after living alone for so many years.

Father snores as his wife gets into her dressing down.
Pick up the letter that's lying there,
Standing alone at the top of the stairs.
She breaks down and cries to her husband "Daddy, our baby's gone.
Why would she treat us so thoughtlessly,
Now could she do this to me."

She ( We never thought of ourselves )
Is leaving ( Never a thought of ourselves )
Home ( We struggled hard all our lives to get by )
She's leaving home after living alone for so many years.

Friday morning at nine o'clock she is far away.
Waiting to keep the appointment she made,
Meeting a man from the motor trade.

She ( What did we do that was wrong )
Is having ( We didn't know it was wrong )
Fun ( Fun is the one thing that money can't buy )
Something inside that was always denied for so many years.
She's leaving home, bye, bye.

 

 

 

 

 


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

with a little help from my friends

What would you think if I sang out of tune,
Would you stand up and walk out on me?
Lend me your ears and I'll sing you a song
And I'll try not to sing out of key,

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends,
Mm, I get high with a little help from my friends,
Mm, I'm gonna try with a little help from my friends.

What do I do when my love is away,
Does it worry you to be alone?
How do I feel by the end of the day,
Are you sad because you're on your own?

No, I get by with a little help from my friends,
Mm, I get high with a little help from my friends,
Mm, I'm gonna try with a little help from my friends.

Do you need anybody?
I need somebody to love.
Could it be anybody?
I want somebody to love.

Would you believe in a love at first sight?
Yes, I'm certain that it happens all the time.
What do you see when you turn out the light?
I can't tell you but I know it's mine.

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends,
Mm, I get high with a little help from my friends,
Mm, I'm gonna try with a little help from my friends.

Do you need anybody?
I does need someone to love.
Could it be anybody?
I want somebody to love.



 

 

 



 

 

 

 

 

yesterday

Yesterday all my troubles seemed so far away.
Now it look as though they're here to stay,
Oh, I believe in yesterday.

Suddenly, I'm not half the man I used to be.
There's a shadow hanging over me,
Oh, yesterday, came suddenly.

Why she had to go, I don't know, she wouldn't say.
I said something wrong, now I long for yesterday.

Yesterday love was such an easy game to play,
Now I need a place to hide away,
Oh, I believe in yesterday.

Why she had to go, I don't know, she wouldn't say.
I said something wrong, now I long for yesterday.

Yesterday love was such an easy game to play,
Now I need a place to hide away,
Oh, I believe in yesterday.
