Top Five Beatles Lyrics

Mmmm. Tonight I had an amazing hot bath with The Beatles' Love album on and the ceiling light was so bright that the pattern of the water reflected back onto the ceiling. The waves made different shapes as I moved and I soon figured out that moving in time to the music produced more synchronized visuals. There it is: I've invented bath dancing.

I didn't buy Love on release because I thought it was a compilation of their love songs, like 1 was a Number 1s anthology. D'oh! It's so good. Paul McCartney allegedly suggested the Martins (the producers) went "further out" with it and I can't help agree, though it's still a grand hour-and-a-bit's listen with many impressive sequences.

I hold my nose and submerge to wash my hair in the bath, and I realised I was playing A Day In The Life too loud when I could still hear it underwater. Sorry, neighbours! We were miles from the crescendo too. But who doesn't like The Beatles, with their three phases and acid-influenced lyrics?



5. A Day In The Life (1967).
A crowd of people turned away/But I just had to look
Having read the book
4. Polythene Pam (1969).
Get a dose of her in jackboots and kilt
She's killer-diller when she's dressed to the hilt
She's the kind of a girl that makes the News of the World
Yes, you could say she was attractively built
3. Norwegian Wood (1965).
I once had a girl/Or should I say she once had me?
2. I Am The Walrus (1967).
Yellow matter custard dripping from a dead dog's eye
1. Back In The U.S.S.R. (1968).
Show me round your snow-peaked mountains way down south
Take me to your daddy's farm
Let me hear your balalaikas ringing out
Come and keep your comrade warm

Their worst lyric is the second line of While My Guitar Gently Weeps.
