The Lyrics


Welcome Einsteins. I'm here to introduce the lyrics page. You can guess who I am. The cartoon version of John Lennon. The Yellow Submarine is basically an animated musical filled with the wonderful songs of the Fab Four. The new release of the movie has involved the creating of a new soundtrack.

The compilation is mostly from two Beatles LPs. "Yellow Submarine" and "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band." Though all the songs on Yellow Submarine are in the movie, only a few songs from Sgt. Pepper's is on it. "Nowhere Man" and "Think For Yourself" are from "Rubber Soul." And the song "Yellow Submarine" itself, along with "Eleanor Rigby," and "Love You To" are from "Revolver." The songs "Baby, You're a Rich Man" and "All You Need is Love" are from the "Magical Mystery Tour" album. The new soundtrack has all the songs that appeared in the movie on one album. Which I believe is quite a clever idea.

A few of the songs on the new songtrack werenot in the movie in their entirity. Those songs are "Love You To", "Think For Yourself", "With a Little Help From My Friends", and "Baby You're a Rich Man." And the film has a different version of "It's All Too Much" and "All You Need is Love" than the soundtrack does. The film versions are a bit shorter.

So here's the lyrics for the main songs. They aren't that hard to figure out but sometimes a little help from some friends is needed. So without further ado, here's the lyrics in order that they appeared in the movie.

Yellow Submarine
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 unto the sun
Till we found a sea of green
And we live 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

Eleanor Rigby
Ah, look at all the lonely people
Ah, look at all the lonely people

Eleanor Rigby
Picks up the rice in a church where a wedding has been
Lives in a dream
Waits at the window
Wearing a face that she keeps in a jar by the door
Who is it for?

All the lonely people
Where do they all come from?
All the lonely people
Where do they all belong?

Father McKenzie
Writing the words of a sermon that no one will hear
No one comes near
Look at him working
Darning his socks in the night when there's nobody there
What does he care?

All the lonely people
Where do they all come from?
All the lonely people
Where do they all belong?

Ah, look at all the lonely people
Ah, look at all the lonely people

Eleanor Rigby
Died in the church and was buried along with her name
Nobody came
Father McKenzie
Wiping the dirt from his hands as he walks from the grave
No one was saved

All the lonely people
Where do they all come from?
All the lonely people
Where do they all belong?

Love You To
Each day just goes so fast
I turn around it's passed
You don't get time to hang a sign on me

Love me while you can
Before I'm a dead old man

A lifetime 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 the sins you see

I'll make love to you
If you want me to

All Together Now
One, Two, Three, Four
Can I have a little more?
Five, Six, Seven, Eight, Nine, Ten
I love you

A, B, C, D
Can I bring my friend to tea?
E, F, G, H, I, J
I love you

Boom boom boom boom baboom
Sail the ship
Boom baboom
Chop the tree
Boom baboom
Skip the rope
Boom baboom
Look a me

All together now!
All together now
All together now!
All together now
All together now!
All together now
All together now!
All together now

Black, white, green, red
Can I take my friend to bed?
Pink, brown, yellow, orange, and blue
I love you

All together now! *sixteen times*

Boom boom boom boom baboom
Sail the ship
Boom baboom
Chop the tree
Boom baboom
Skip the rope
Boom baboom
Look at me

All together now! *24 times*

When I'm Sixty-Four
When I get older
Losing my hair
Many years from now
Will you still be sending me a Valentine
Birthday greetings, bottle of wine

If I'd been out till
Quarter to three
Would you lock the door?
Will you still feed me?
Will you still need me?
When I'm Sixty-Four

Oooo....
You'll be older too
And if you say the words
I could stay with you

I could be handy
Mending a fuse
When your lights have gone
You can knit a sweater by the fireside
Sunday mornings go for a ride

Doing the garden
Digging the weeds
Who could ask for more?
Will you still need me?
Will you still feed me?
When I'm Sixty-Four

Ev'ry summer we can rent a cottage in the Isle of Wight
If it's not too dear
We shall scrimp and save
Grandchildren on your knee
Vera, Chuck and Dave

Send me a postcard
Drop me a line
Stating point of view
Indicate precisely what you mean to say
Yours sincerely
Wasting away

Give me your answer
Fill in a form
Mine forever more
Will you still need me?
Will you still feed me?
When I'm Sixty-Four
Whoo

Only a Northern Song
If you're listening to this song
You may think the chords are going wrong
But they're not
We just wrote it that way

When you're listening late at night
You may think the band are not quite right
But they are
They just play it like that

It doesn't really matter what chords I play
What words I say
Or time of day it is
As it's only a northern song

It doesn't really matter what clothes I wear
Or how I fare
Or if my hair is brown
When it's only a northern song

If you think the whole of me
Is a little dark and out of key
You're correct
There's nobody there
And I told you there's no one there

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 as 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 nowhwere 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

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 kaleidascope 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
Ahhh...

Follow her down to a bridge by a fountain
Where rocking horse people
Eat marshmallow pies
Everyone 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
Ahhh..

Picture yourself on a train in a station
With plastacine porters
With looking glass ties
Suddenly someone is there by the turnstile
The girl with kaleidascope eyes

Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Ahhh...
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Ahhh...
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds *fade out*

Think For Yourself
I've got a word or two
To say about the things that you do
You're telling all those lies
About the good that things that we can have if we close our eyes

Do what you want to do
And go where you're going to
Think for yourself 'cause I won't be there with you

I left you far behind
The ruins of the life that you had in mind
And though you still can see
I know your mind's made up, you're gonna cause more misery

Do what you want to do
And go where you're going to
Think for yourself 'cause I won't be there with you

Although your mind's opaque
Try thinking more if just for your own sake
The future still looks good
And you've got time to rectify all the things that you should

Do what you want to do
And go where you're going to
Think for yourself 'cause I won't be there with you

Do what you want to do
And go where you're going to
Think for yourself 'cause I won't be there with you
Think for yourself 'cause I won't be there with you

Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band
It was twenty years ago today
Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play
They've been going in and out of style
But they're guaranteed to raise a smile
So may I introduce to you
The act you've known for all these years
Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band

We're Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band
We hope you will enjoy the show
Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band
Sit back and let the evening go
Sgt. Pepper's Lonely

It's certainly a thrill
You're such a lovely audience
We'd like to take you home with us
We'd love to take you home

I don't really want to stop the show
But I thought you might like to know
That the singer's gonna sing a song
And he wants you all to sing along
So let me introduce to you
The one and only Billy Shears
And Sgt. Pepper's Lonly Hearts Club Band

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 ear 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
Mmm, I get high with a little help from my friends
Mmm, 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?

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

Do you need anybody?

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends
Mmm, I gonna try with a little help from my friends
Oh, I get high with a little help from my friends
Yes, I get by with a little help from my friends
With a little help from my friends

Baby, You're a Rich Man
How does it feel to be
One of the beautiful people?
Now that you know who you are
What do you want to be?

And have you traveled very far?
Far as the eye can see

How does it feel to be
One of the beautiful people?
How often have you been there?
Often enough to know

What did you see when you were there?
Nothing that doesn't show

Baby, you're a rich man!
Baby, you're a rich man!
Baby, you're a rich man too!
You keep all your money in a big, brown bag
Inside a zoo
What a thing to do

Baby, you're a rich man!
Baby, you're a rich man!
Baby, you're a rich man too!

How does it feel to be
One of the beautiful people
Tuned to a natural E
Happy to be that way

Now that you found another key
What are you going to play?

Baby, you're a rich man!
Baby, you're a rich man!
Baby, you're a rich man too!
You keep all your money in a big, brown bag
Inside a zoo
What a thing to do

Baby
Baby, you're a rich man!
Baby, you're a rich man!
Baby, you're a rich man too!
Oh, ohh
Baby, you're a rich man!
Baby, you're a rich man!
Baby, you're a rich man too!
Woo, ooo
Baby, you're a rich man...*fade out*

Hey Bulldog
Sheepdog
Standing in the rain
Bullfrog
Doing it again
Some kind of happiness is measured out in miles
What makes you think you're something special when you smile?

Childlike
No one understands
Jack knife
In your sweaty hands
Some kind of innocense is measured out in years
You don't know what it's like to listen to your fears

You can talk to me
You can talk to me
You can talk to me
If you're lonely you can talk to me

Big man
Walking in the park
Wigwam
Frightened of the dark
Some kind of solitude is measured out in you
You think you know me but you haven't got a clue

You can talk to me
You can talk to me
You can talk to me
If you're lonely you can talk to me

Hey Bulldog
Hey Bulldog
Hey Bulldog
Hey Bulldog

*John and Paul messing around* Hey Bulldog

It's All Too Much (YS version)
It's all too much
It's all too much

When I look into your eyes
your love is there for me
And the more I go inside
The more there is to see

It's all too much for me to take
The love that's shining all around here
All the world's a birthday cake
So take a piece but not too much

Nice to have the time to take
This opportunity
Time for me to look at you
And you too look at me

It's all to much for me to see
A love that's shining all around you
Everywhere, it's what you make
For us to take, it's all to much

It's too much
Ahhh...

It's All Too Much (LP version)
It's all too much
It's all too much

When I look into your eyes
You're love is there for me
And the more I go inside
The more there is to see

It's all too much for me to take
The love that's shining all around you
Everywhere it's what you make
For us to take, it's all too much

Floating down the stream of time
From life to life with me
Makes no difference where you are
Or where you'd like to be

It's all too much for me to take
The love that's shining all around here
All the world's a birthday cake
So take a piece but not too much

Set me on a silver sun
Where I'd know that I'm free
Show me that I'm everywhere
And get me home for tea

It's all too much for me to see
The love that's shining all around here
The more I learn, the less I know
And what I do is all too much

It's all too much for me to take
The love that's shining all around you
Everywhere it's what you make
For us to take, it's all too much

It's too much
Ahhhh...
It's too much

With your long, blond hair and your eyes of blue
With your long, blond hair and your eyes of blue
You're too much-ah

Too much, Too much *repeat and fade*
