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