Happiness is a warm gun

As Released by the Beatles (1968)
She's not a girl who misses much
Do do do do do do, oh yeah.
She's well acquainted with the touch of the velvet hand
Like a lizard on a window-pane.
The man in the crowd with the multicoloured mirrors on his hobnail boots
Lying with his eyes while his hands are busy working overtime
A soap impression of his wife which he ate
And donated to the National Trust.
I need a fix 'cos I'm going down
Down to the bits that I left uptown
I need a fix 'cos I'm going down.
Mother Superior jumped the gun
Mother Superior jumped the gun
Mother Superior jumped the gun
Mother Superior jumped the gun
Mother Superior jumped the gun
Mother Superior jumped the gun.
Happiness ((happiness)) is a warm gun
(Bang, bang, shoot, shoot)
Happiness ((happiness)) is a warm gun, momma
((Bang, bang, shoot, shoot))
When I hold you in my arms ((oh, yeah))
And I feel my finger on your trigger ((oh, yeah))
I know nobody can do me no harm ((oh, yeah))
Because - (happiness) is a warm gun, momma
((Bang, bang, shoot, shoot))
Happiness ((happiness)) is a warm gun, yes it is
((Bang, bang, shoot, shoot))
Happiness is a warm, yes it is - gun
((Happiness - bang, bang, shoot, shoot))
Well, don't you know that happiness ((happiness))
Is a warm gun, momma ((is a warm gun, yeah)).

Mean Mr. Mustard

As Released by the Beatles (1969)
Mean Mr. Mustard sleeps in the park
Shaves in the dark
Trying to save paper.
Sleeps in a hole in the road
Saving up to buy some clothes
Keeps a ten bob note up his nose
Such a mean old man, such a mean old man.
His sister Pam works in a shop
She never stops
She's a go-getter.
Takes him out to look at the Queen
Only place that he's ever been
Always shouts out something obscene
Such a dirty old man, dirty old man.

Let me take you down
'cos I'm going to strawberry fields
Nothing is real
And nothing to get hung about
Strawberry fields forever.
Living is easy with eyes closed
Misunderstanding all you see
It's getting hard to be someone
But it all works out
It doesn't matter much to me.
Let me take you down
'cos I'm going to strawberry fields
Nothing is real
And nothing to get hung about
Strawberry fields forever.
No-one, I think, is in my tree
I mean, it must be high or low
That is you can't, you know, tune in
But it's alright
That is, I think it's not too bad.
Let me take you down
'cos I'm going to strawberry fields
Nothing is real
And nothing to get hung about
Strawberry fields forever.
Always, no, sometimes, think it's me
But, you know, I know when it's a dream
I think I know, I mean, er, yes
But it's all wrong
That is, I think I disagree.
Let me take you down
'cos I'm going to strawberry fields
Nothing is real
And nothing to get hung about
Strawberry fields forever.
Strawberry fields forever.
Strawberry fields forever.

We said our goodbyes (aah the night before)
Love was in your eyes (aah the night before)
Now today I find, you have changed your mind
Treat me like you did the night before.
Were you telling lies? (aah the night before)
Was I so unwise? (aah the night before)
When I held you near, you were so sincere
Treat me like you did the night before.
Last night is the night I will remember you by
When I think of things we did it makes we wanna cry.

You'll never know how much I really love you
You'll never know how much I really care.

I look at you all, see the love there that's sleeping
While my guitar gently weeps.
I look at the floor and I see it needs sweeping
Still my guitar gently weeps.
I don't know why nobody told you how to unfold your love
I don't know how someone controlled you
They bought and sold you.
I look at the world and I notice it's turning
While my guitar gently weeps.
With every mistake we must surely be learning
Still my guitar gently weeps.
(Aah - aah)
I don't know how you were diverted
You were perverted too
I don't know how you were inverted
No-one alerted you.
I look at you all, see the love there that's sleeping
While my guitar gently weeps.
Look, look at you all
Still my guitar gently weeps

Girl
03:17

As Released by the Beatles (1965)
Is there anybody going to listen to my story
All about the girl who came to stay?
She's the kind of girl you want so much it makes you sorry
Still you don't regret a single day.
Ah, girl - (girl) girl.
When I think of all the times I tried so hard to leave her
She will turn to me and start to cry
And she promises the earth to me and I believe her
After all this time I don't know why.
Ah, girl - (girl) girl.
She's the kind of girl who puts you down
((Tit, tit, tit, tit, tit))
When friends are there, you feel a fool.
((Tit, tit, tit, tit, tit, tit, tit, tit, tit, tit, tit, tit))
When you say she's looking good
((Tit, tit, tit, tit))
She acts as if it's understood
((Tit, tit, tit, tit))
She's cool - ooo-ooo-ooo.
((Tit, tit, tit, tit, tit, tit, tit, tit))
Girl - (girl) girl.
Was she told when she was young that pain would lead to pleasure?
Did she understand it when they said
That a man must break his back to earn his day of leisure?
Will she still believe it when he's dead?
Ah, girl - (girl) girl.
Ah, girl - (girl) girl.

As Released by the Beatles (1965)
I get high when I see you go by, my oh my
When you sigh my my inside just flies, butterflies.
Why am I so shy when I'm beside you?
It's only love and that is all
Why should I feel the way I do?
It's only love and that is all
But it's so hard loving you.
Is it right that you and I should fight, every night
Just the sight of you makes night-time bright, very bright.
Haven't I the right to make it up girl?
It's only love and that is all
Why should I feel the way I do?
It's only love and that is all
But it's so hard loving you.
Yes, it's so hard loving you, loving you - ooo.

As Released by the Beatles (1965)
I've just seen a face
I can't forget the time or place
Where we just met
She's just the girl for me
And I want all the world to see we've met
Mmm, mmm, mmm - mmm.
Had it been another day
I might have looked the other way
And I'd have never been aware
But as it is I'll dream of her tonight
La da da, da n da.
Falling, yes I am falling
And she keeps calling me back again.
I have never known the like of this
I've been alone and I have missed things
And kept out of sight
But other girls were never quite like this
La da da, da n da.
Falling, yes I am falling
And she keeps calling me back again.
(Hey)
Falling, yes I am falling
And she keeps calling me back again.
I've just seen a face
I can't forget the time or place
Where we just met
She's just the girl for me
And I want all the world to see we've met
Mmm mmm mmm la da da.

Here I stand head in hand
Turn my face to the wall.
If she's gone I can't go on
Feeling two-foot small.
Everywhere people stare
Each and every day.
I can see them laugh at me
And I hear them say.
Hey! you've got to hide your love away.
Hey! you've got to hide your love away.
How can I even try
I can never win
Hearing them, seeing them
In the state I'm in.
How could she say to me
Love will find a way?
Gather round all you clowns
Let me hear you say.
Hey! you've got to hide your love away.
Hey! you've got to hide your love away.

Picture yourself in a boat on a river
With tangerine trees and marmalade skies.
Somebody calls you, you answer quite slowly
A girl with kaleidoscope 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 - aah.
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 (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 - aah.
Picture yourself on a train in a station
With plasticine porters with looking-glass ties.
Suddenly someone is there at the turnstyle
The girl with kaleidoscope eyes.
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds - aah.
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds - aah.

Lucy in the sky with diamonds (aah - ooo)

For the benefit of Mr. Kite
There will be a show tonight on trampoline.
The Hendersons will all be there
Late of Pablo Fanques Fair - what a scene.
Over men and horses, hoops and garters
Lastly through a hogshead of real fire
In this way Mr. K. will challenge the world.
The celebrated Mr. K.
Performs his feat on Saturday at Bishopsgate.
The Hendersons will dance and sing
As Mr. Kite flies through the ring - don't be late.
Messrs. K. and H. assure the public
Their production will be second to none
And of course Henry the Horse dances the waltz.
The band begins at ten to six
When Mr. K. performs his tricks - without a sound.
And Mr. H. will demonstrate
Ten somersets he'll undertake on solid ground.
Having been some days in preparation
A splendid time is guaranteed for all
And tonight Mr. Kite is topping the bill.

Nos dijimos adios (la noche anterior)
En tus ojos había amor (la noche anterior)
Y ahora me vengo a enterar, te la querés tomar.
Tratame como la noche anterior.
¿Lo dijiste por decir? (la noche anterior)
¿Como pude ser tan gil? (la noche anterior)
Cuando te abracé fuiste tan cortés.
Tratame como la noche anterior.
Anoche fue la noche, la que voy a recordar.
Cuando pienso en lo que hiciste
me dan ganas de llorar.

I once had a girl
Or should I say
She once had me?
She showed me her room
Isn't it good
Norwegian wood?
She asked me to stay
And she told me to sit anywhere
So I looked around
And I noticed there wasn't a chair.
I sat on a rug
Biding my time
Drinking her wine.
We talked until two
And then she said
It's time for bed.
She told me she worked in the morning
And started to laugh
I told her I didn't
And crawled off to sleep in the bath.
And when I awoke
I was alone
This bird had flown.
So I lit a fire
Isn't it good
Norwegian wood?

You never give me your money
You only give me your funny paper
And in the middle of negotiations you break down.
I never give you my number
I only give you my situation
And in the middle of investigation I break down.
As Arranged by Salmón Osado (2012)
You never gave me your love girl
You only give me some smile donation.
And in the fire of hallucination you flew high.
I never think of returning
I only fade in procrastination
And in the corner of my old intentions I grow down.

All my little plans and schemes
Lost like some forgotten dream
Seems that all I really was doing
Was waiting for you
Just like little girls and boys
Playing with their little toys
Seems like all we really were doing
Was waiting for love
No need to be alone
No need to be alone
It's real love, it's real
Yes it's real love, it's real
