Good Morning Good Morning Lyrics

Good morning, good morning
Nothing to do to save his life call his wife in
Nothing to say but what a day how's your boy been
Nothing to do it's up to you
I've got nothing to say but it's ok
Good morning, good morning

Going to work don't want to go feeling low down
Heading for home you start to roam then you're in town
Everybody knows there's nothing doing
Everything is closed it's like a ruin
Everyone you see is half asleep.
And you're on your own you're in the street.

After a while you start to smile now you feel cool
Then you decide to take a walk by the old school.
Nothing had changed it's still the same
I've got nothing to say but it's ok
Good morning, good morning

People running round it's five o'clock
Everywhere in town is getting dark
Everyone you see is full of life.
It's time for tea and meet the wife
Somebody needs to know the time, glad that I'm here.

Watching the skirts you start to flirt now you're in gear.
Go to show you hope she goes.
I've got nothing to say but it's ok.
Good morning, good morning

John Lennon watched a lot of TV. He wrote this after hearing "Good Morning, Good Morning" in an ad for Corn Flakes.

The animal sounds were dubbed in from a sound effects disc. They were arranged in order of creatures capable of eating the one before, at Lennon's request.

George Martin edited the chicken at the end to go right into the guitar of the Sgt. Pepper reprise. One of the innovations of the album was the songs blending together.

Lennon: "It's a throwaway, a piece of garbage."

The lyrics, "it's time for tea and Meet the Wife" refer to the BBC sitcom Meet The Wife, starring Freddie Frinton and Thora Hird. (thanks, Dan - Indianapolis, IN)
