A Day in the Life/Give Peace a Chance (Live at Citi Field) Lyrics
[Part I: A Day in the Life]
[Verse 1]
I read the news today, oh boy
About a lucky man who made the grade
And though the news was rather sad
Well I just had to laugh
I saw the photograph
[Verse 2]
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
[Verse 3]
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
[Instrumental Interlude]
[Verse 1]
I read the news today, oh boy
About a lucky man who made the grade
And though the news was rather sad
Well I just had to laugh
I saw the photograph
[Verse 2]
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
[Verse 3]
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
[Instrumental Interlude]
[Bridge]
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
[Part II: Give Peace a Chance]
[Chorus]
All we are saying is give peace a chance (Yeah)
All we are saying is give peace a chance (Yeah, yeah)
All we are saying is give peace a chance (Everybody sing)
All we are saying is give peace a chance
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
[Part II: Give Peace a Chance]
[Chorus]
All we are saying is give peace a chance (Yeah)
All we are saying is give peace a chance (Yeah, yeah)
All we are saying is give peace a chance (Everybody sing)
All we are saying is give peace a chance
