A Day in the Life

And though the holes were rather small
The English army had just won the war

Now they know how many holes it takes to fill the Albert Hall
A crowd of people stood and stared
A crowd of people turned away
Woke up, got out of bed
Ahh, ahh, ahh
They'd seen his face before

Made the bus in seconds flat
And though the news was rather sad
And somebody spoke and I went into a dream
Found my way upstairs and had a smoke

He blew his mind out in a car
They had to count them all
Well, I just had to laugh
I read the news today, oh boy
But I just had to look, having read the book
Four thousand holes in Blackburn, Lancashire
He didn't notice that the lights had changed
I'd love to turn you on
Found my coat and grabbed my hat
And looking up, I noticed I was late
I saw the photograph
Found my way downstairs and drank a cup
Nobody was really sure if he was from the House of Lords
I saw a film today, oh boy
Dragged a comb across my head
