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