Artist/Band: Beatles
Lyrics for Song: A Day In The Life
Lyrics for Album: Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band



I read the news today oh boy
About a lucky man who made the grave
And though the news was rather sad
Well I just had to laugh
I saw the photograph

He blew his mind out in a car
He didn't notice that the lights had changed
A crowd of people stood and stared
They'd seen his face before
Nobody was really sure if he was from the House of Lords.

I saw a film today oh boy
The English Army had just won the war
A crowd of people turned away
But I just had to look
Having read the book, I'd love to turn you on...

Woke up, fell out of bed,
Dragged a comb across my head
Found my way downstairs and drank a cup,
And looking up I noticed I was late.

Found my coat and grabbed my hat
Made the bus in seconds flat
Found my way upstairs and had a smoke,
and Somebody spoke and I went into a dream

I read the news today oh boy
Four thousand holes in Blackburn, Lancashire
And though the holes were rather small
They had to count them all
Now they know how many holes it takes to fill the Albert Hall.
I'd love to turn you on.


A Day In The Life

A Day In The Life stands as a monumental achievement in the Beatles' discography, serving as the closing track of their groundbreaking 1967 album, Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. The song exemplifies the band's evolution into a sophisticated studio ensemble, blending disparate musical sections into a cohesive, dreamlike narrative. Its structure features contrasting tempos and textures, moving from a somber, orchestral swell to an energetic rock bridge before returning to the haunting final chord. This recording captures the group at the height of their creative experimentation, utilizing innovative production techniques to create a soundscape that transcends traditional pop songwriting. As a defining moment in rock history, the track remains a testament to the band's ability to merge artistic ambition with melodic accessibility, securing its place as one of the most influential recordings of the twentieth century.
