Lend me your comb

Beatles · Anthology 1

Lend me your comb,
it's time to go home.
I got to go past,
my hair is a mess

Your mammie will scold,
your pappie will shout.
Unless we come in
the way we went out.

Kissing you was fun honey
but thanks for the date.
But I must come to run honey,
but you know baby it's getting late.

Just wait till I say:
my darling,
lend me your comb.
We got to go home.

Kissing you was fun honey
but thanks for the date.
But I must come to run, honey.
but sugar, it's getting late.

Just wait till I
say: my darling,
lend me your comb.
We got to go home.

Lend Me Your Comb

Released on the Beatles' 1996 anthology compilation Anthology 1, 'Lend Me Your Comb' stands as a rare studio recording from the band's final years, featuring George Harrison on lead vocals. The track exemplifies the group's late-period experimentation, blending pop sensibilities with a more introspective, acoustic-driven approach that diverged from their earlier rock anthems. While the song was not released as a single, its inclusion in the anthology series highlighted the band's continued creative output and the collaborative efforts of the surviving members. The recording captures a moment of vulnerability and musical refinement, reflecting the unique sonic landscape of the Beatles' post-1969 era. It remains a significant piece of their discography, offering listeners a glimpse into their final artistic endeavors before their dissolution.
