Verse 1 :
Penny Lane is in my ears and in my eyes
In Penny Lane there is a barber showing photographs
Of every head he's had the pleasure to know
And all the people that come and go
Stop and say hello
Verse 2 :
On the corner is a banker with a motorcar
On the corner is a banker with a motorcar
The little children laugh at him behind his back
And the banker never wears a mack
In the pouring rain, very strange
Chorus 1 :
Penny Lane is in my ears and in my eyes
Penny Lane is in my ears and in my eyes
There beneath the blue suburban skies
I sit and meanwhile back
Verse 3 :
In Penny Lane there is a fireman with an hourglass
In Penny Lane there is a fireman with an hourglass
And in his pocket is a portrait of the queen
He likes to keep his fire engine clean
It's a clean machine
Interlude :
Chorus 2 :
Penny Lane is in my ears and in my eyes
A four of fish and finger pies
In summer meanwhile back
Verse 4 :
Behind the shelter in the middle of a roundabout
Behind the shelter in the middle of a roundabout
The pretty nurse is selling poppies from a tray
And though she feels as if she's in a play
She is anyway
Verse 5 :
In Penny Lane the barber shaves another customer
In Penny Lane the barber shaves another customer
We see the banker sitting waiting for a trim
And then the fireman rushes in
From the pouring rain, very strange
Chorus 3 - Ending :
Penny Lane is in my ears and in my eyes
Penny Lane is in my ears and in my eyes
There beneath the blue suburban skies
I sit and meanwhile back
Penny Lane is in my ears and in my eyes
There beneath the blue suburban skies
