Yellow Submarine
The Beatles · Revolver (Remastered) [2009]
Lived a man who sailed to sea
And he told us of his life
In the land of submarines
So we sailed up to the sun
Till we found a sea of green
And we lived 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
We all live in a yellow submarine
Yellow submarine, yellow submarine
We all live in a yellow submarine
Yellow submarine, yellow submarine
(Full speed ahead Mr. Boatswain, full speed ahead
(då fortsätter vi resan)
Full speed ahead it is, Sgt.
Cut the cable, drop the cable
Aye, Sir, aye
Captain, captain)
As we live a life of ease
Every one of us has all we need
Sky of blue and sea of green
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
We all live in a yellow submarine
Yellow submarine, yellow submarine
Yellow Submarine
The Beatles' "Yellow Submarine" stands as a quintessential example of the band's psychedelic pop experimentation during the mid-1960s. Released on the iconic *Revolver* album, the track features the distinctive, upbeat tempo and harmonies that defined their sound at its creative peak. The song's title and lyrics reference a fictional vessel, a recurring motif in the band's whimsical storytelling that blended science fiction with rock music. As a staple of their discography, it showcases George Harrison's melodic sensibility and John Lennon's playful lyricism, capturing the era's fascination with space travel and imaginative escapism. The recording remains a celebrated piece of studio craft, illustrating the group's ability to craft catchy, memorable anthems that transcended their immediate context to become enduring cultural touchstones.
