I Am The Walrus (Live Glasgow Cathouse June ’94) Lyrics

[Intro]
What's up?
What's up?
Does it matter if it's out of tune?
Does it matter if it's out of tune?
It's all cool


[Verse 1]
I am he as you are he as you are me
And we are all together
See how they run like pigs from a gun
See how they fly
I'm cryin'

[Verse 2]
Sitting on a cornflake
Waiting for the van to come
Corporation tee-shirt, stupid bloody Tuesday
Man, you've been a naughty boy
You let your face grow long

[Chorus]
I am the eggman
We are the eggmen
I am the walrus
Goo goo g'joob
[Verse 3]
Mister City policeman sitting
Pretty little policemen in a row
See how they fly like Lucy in the sky
See how they run
I'm cryin', I'm cryin'
I'm cryin', I'm cryin'

[Verse 4]
Yellow-matter custard
Dripping from a dead dog's eye
Crabalocker fishwife, pornographic priestess
Man, you've been a naughty girl
You let your knickers down

[Chorus]
I am the eggman
We are the eggmen
I am the walrus
Goo goo g'joob g'goo goo g'joob

[Bridge]
Sitting in an English garden waiting for the sun
If the sun don't come, you get a tan from standing in the English rain

[Chorus]
'Cause I am the eggman
We are the eggmen
And I am the walrus
Goo goo g'joob g'goo goo g'joob
[Verse 5]
Expert, textpert, choking smokers
Don't you think the joker laughs at you?
See how they smile like pigs in a sty
See how they snied
I'm cryin'

[Verse 6]
Semolina pilchard
Climbing up the Eiffel Tower
Elementary penguin singing Hare Krishna
Man, you should have seen them kicking
Edgar Allan Poe

[Chorus]
I am the eggman
We are the eggmen
I am the walrus
Goo goo g'joob g'goo goo g'joob
Goo goo g'joob g'goo goo g'joob, g'goo

[Bridge]
Joob, joob, jooba
Joob, joob, jooba
Joob, joob, jooba
Joob, joob, jooba
Joob, joob, jooba
