Traitor Lyrics


Traitor Song Chart
  • A traitor is someone who betrays you. Flyleaf lead singer Kristen May wrote the lyric about the people in her life that she eventually realized were not healthy for her. "I know we're taught to love one another and forgive and really try to welcome people in with open arms, but I also think there is something to be said for calling out the people in your life that don't make sense for you and shouldn't be there," she said in our interview . "I needed to get that out. I needed to get that feeling of, 'No, you're not good for me, there's nothing about our relationship that is healthy, and so I need to get out of this.' So that's what 'Traitor' is about."

    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)

    When I'm 64 Song Chart
  • Paul McCartney wrote the music for this when he was about 15, and used to play it when The Beatles were still known as The Quarrymen. He put lyrics to it later in honor of his father's 64th birthday.
  • McCartney wrote and sang the lead vocals on this song which asks if a woman will still be with him when he got older, when he was 64 years old. On May 17, 2006, Paul and his then wife, Heather Mills, separated, finalizing the divorce in 2008. McCartney turned 64 on June 18, 2006, so the answer to his musical question with regards to Mills, would be no.
  • John Lennon said of this: "I would never even dream of writing a song like that."
  • George Martin arranged this in the style of a 1920's big band, which came to be known as "retro-rock." McCartney's vocal was sped-up a bit to add to the effect.
  • This was the first song recorded for Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band.
  • This was used in the Robin Williams movie The World According to Garp.
  • This was a favorite of The Beatles at their early club shows, where they were required to play for hours. When their amps overheated, they would sing this around the piano.
  • Julian Lennon, John's son, recorded a version of this that was used in 2002 commercials for Allstate insurance. This was not typical of Julian, who usually shied away from his father's legacy in an effort to forge his own identity.
  • The title is also the name of a BBC television show starring Paul Freeman and Alun Armstrong as two older men who fall in love with each other. (thanks, Bertrand - Paris, France, for above 2)
  • A reference to this song appeared in the movie Shanghai Knights, starring Jackie Chan and Owen Wilson. In the scene where Roy O'Bannon (Wilson) is fantasizing about his future family and life with Chon Lin, he mentions his kids' names: "Vera, Chuck, and Dave." (thanks, Brittany - Virginia)
  • In opening scenes of the 2007 musical Across The Universe, the main character, Jude, has his ticket stamped to New York by an elderly man who says that he would have left the city sooner when he was young, but he is now 64 and still working at the shipyard. It's a definite reference to McCartney's song that didn't make it into the movie, which features only Beatles songs. (thanks, Cameron Hirtle - Roseburg, OR)

    She's Out of My Life Lyrics


    She's Out of My Life
    She's out of my life
    And I don't know whether to laugh or cry
    I don't know whether to live or die
    And it cuts like a knife
    She's out of my life

    It's out of my hands
    It's out of my hands
    To think for two years she was here
    And I took her for granted I was so cavalier
    Now the way that it stands
    She's out of my hands

    So I've learned that love's not possession
    And I've learned that love won't wait
    Now I've learned that love needs expression
    But I learned too late

    She's out of my life
    She's out of my life
    Damned indecision and cursed pride
    Kept my love for her locked deep inside
    And it cuts like a knife
    She's out of my life

    She's Out of My Life Song Chart
  • This heartfelt ballad was written by Tom Bahler. Though he dated Karen Carpenter (who would die of complications from anorexia in 1983), the song was not about the eventual demise of their romance. Bahler explained it was actually inspired by his breakup with his previous girlfriend, Rhonda Rivera.
  • Off the Wall producer Quincy Jones had been saving the track for Frank Sinatra but wanted to introduce Jackson to more mature themes in his music. The song would become famous for the King of Pop's tearful performance. Jones remembered: "She's Out of My Life, I'd been carrying around for about three years - you can feel the pain in it, you know. And I held on to it and finally something said 'this is the right moment to give it to Michael'.

    And when we recorded it with Michael, I know it was an experience he'd never even thought about to sing in a song, 'cause it's a very mature emotion. And he cried at the end of every take, you know. We recorded about - I don't know - 8-11 takes, and every one at the end, he just cried, and I said 'hey - that's supposed to be, leave it on there.'"
  • Bruce Gowers directed the stark music video that put Jackson's emotions front and center. He told Rolling Stone: "What you're seeing on there is one complete take, it was shot multi-camera. [This and 'Rock With You'] were both shot on the same day. I think we shot one at like three in the afternoon and one at 5… Very emotional he was in that. I was worried that he was actually going to break down and cry – which would have probably been a bit wonderful if we got some tears rolling down the face. That almost happened but not quite."
  • In his Moonwalk autobiography, Jackson explained that the song forced him to confront feelings of loneliness, of being "so rich in some experiences while being poor in moments of true joy."

    Being for the Benefit of Mr. Kite! Lyrics


    For the benefit of Mr. Kite
    There will be a show tonight on trampoline
    The Hendersons will all be there
    Late of Pablo Fanques Fair, what a scene
    Over men and horses hoops and garters
    Lastly through a hogshead of real fire!
    In this way Mr. K. will challenge the world!
    The celebrated Mr. K.
    Performs his feat on Saturday at Bishops Gate
    The Hendersons will dance and sing
    As Mr. Kite flies through the ring don't be late
    Misters K. and H. assure the public
    Their production will be second to none
    And of course Henry The Horse dances the waltz!

    The band begins at ten to six
    When Mr. K. performs his tricks without a sound
    And Mr. H. will demonstrate
    Ten summer sets he'll undertake on solid ground
    Having been some days in preparation
    A splendid time is guaranteed for all
    And tonight Mr. Kite is topping the bill

    Being for the Benefit of Mr. Kite! Song Chart
  • During the filming of the video for "Strawberry Fields Forever," John Lennon and Apple Records employee Tony Bramwell went into an antique shop close to their hotel. Tony says, "John and I wandered in and John spotted this framed Victorian circus poster and bought it." John stated, "'Mr. Kite' was a straight lift. I had all the words staring me in the face one day when I was looking for a song. It was from this old poster I'd bought at an antique shop. We'd been down in Surrey or somewhere filming a piece. There was a break, and I went into this shop and bought an old poster advertising a variety show which starred Mr. Kite. It said the Henderson's would also be there, late of Pablo Fanques Fair. there would be hoops and horses and someone going through a hogshead of real fire. Then there was Henry The Horse. The band would start at ten to six. All at Bishopsgate. Look, there's the bill, with Mr. Kite topping it. I hardly made up a word, just connecting the lists together. Word for word, really."
  • The song's title comes from a standard 19th century phrase used in advertising testimonial performances in Britain: "Being for the benefit of..." All-round performer William Kite worked alongside Pablo Fanque and wire-walker/clown/trampolines the Hendersons in 1843. See the poster in Song Images.
  • As he did with many songs he wrote, John Lennon downplayed this one. "I was just going through the motions because we needed a new song for Sgt. Pepper," he said.
  • This song was credited to Lennon/McCartney, but often assumed to be written almost entirely by John. Paul McCartney claims that he had a hand in writing it, however. "'Mr. Kite' is such a crazy oddball song, and I have great memories of writing it with John," he told Rolling Stone in 2013. McCartney, who played the song on his tour that year, added that if he envisioned the song as a live number, he wouldn't have made the bass line so complicated when he composed it.
  • This was going to come after the title track on the album, but they decided to use "With A Little Help From My Friends," sung by the fictional Billy Shears, so that the concept of the album would continue.
  • It was rumored that "Henry The Horse" was heroin. "Horse" is slang for heroin, but Lennon denied that it was a drug reference. The horse is in the poster, but his name is Zanthus. Since the name Zanthus is not very musical, Lennon used the much better sounding name of Henry, making use of alliteration. (thanks, Craig - Hudson, NH)
  • George Harrison and Ringo Starr played harmonicas on this song along with Mal Evans and Neil Aspinall. It also featured a steam organ, which was taken from old tapes.
  • George Martin revealed at a 2008 LA presentation for members of the National Recording Academy of Arts and Sciences one of his recording techniques for this song. The Beatles producer told engineer Geoff Emerick to cut up old tapes of organ music, threw them in the air and onto the floor and then reassembled them at random, running the new sounds concurrent with the song's main organ melody.
  • Asked during a 2014 Twitter Q&A what his favorite bassline to play is, Paul McCartney replied: "At the moment it's 'Being for the Benefit of Mr. Kite!' It's challenging!"

    Don't think I don't see them looking at ya
    All of them wishing they could have ya
    And as a matter of fact, uh
    A bunch of them are itchin' for you to scratch'em
    I'm tired of hiding what we feel
    I'm trying to get with the real
    And I'm-a gonna make it know
    'Cause I want them to know

    You're my lady

    You're my little baby, my darling baby
    I swear you're the talk of the town
    And everybody wants to know what's going down
    Babe, I know they've seen us before
    Maybe at the liquor store, or maybe at the health food stand
    They don't know that I'm your man

    You're my lady

    I can tell they're looking at us
    I pick you up everyday from your job
    And every guy in the parking lot wants to rob me of my girl
    And my heart and soul, and everybody wants to treat me so cold
    But I know I love you and you love me
    There's no other lover for you or me
    You're my lady

    I can't tell they're looking at us

    You're my lady
    My divine lady
    You're my lady

  • Written by D'Angelo and Raphael Saadiq (former lead singer of the R&B trio Tony! Toni! Toné!), this was the third single from D'Angelo's debut album.
  • "I wrote 'Lady' in a Marriott Hotel lobby in Connecticut," Saadiq told Wax Poetics in 2009. "There was a piano sitting there, and I just sat down and started writing this song about a girl I knew who lived in Long Island. I originally played it for the members of Tony! Toni! Toné!, but they didn't like it. I remember them saying, 'Everything you write is not a hit.' So, I put it away."
  • D'Angelo confessed that he didn't really like the track while he was recording it because it was too simple. Saadiq explained: "D was trying to be very complex. But when people started telling him how they had made babies to that track, he appreciated it more."
  • This earned D'Angelo a Grammy nomination for Best Male R&B Vocal Performance.

    Fixing A Hole Lyrics


    I'm Fixing A Hole where the rain gets in
    And stops my mind from wandering
    Where it will go

    I'm filling the cracks that ran through the door
    And kept my mind from wandering
    Where it will go

    And it really doesn't matter if I'm wrong I'm right
    Where I belong I'm right
    Where I belong.

    See the people standing there who disagree and never win
    And wonder why they don't get in my door
    I'm painting my room in the colourful way

    And when my mind is wandering
    There I will go
    And it really doesn't matter if I'm wrong I'm right
    Where I belong I'm right
    Where I belong.

    Silly people run around they worry me
    And never ask me why they don't get past my door
    I'm taking the time for a number of things
    That weren't important yesterday
    And I still go

    I'm fixing a hole where the rain gets in
    And stops my mind from wandering
    Where it will go

  • Paul McCartney wrote this after fixing the roof on his farm in Scotland. McCartney said the song was "about the hole in the road where the rain gets in, a good old analogy."
  • This was the first time The Beatles used a studio other than one owned and operated by their record label EMI. The takes in this new studio - Regent Sound Studio, located in Tottenham Court Road, London - were numbered 1-3. They returned to Abbey Road the next day however, recording "A Day In The Life." (thanks, Matt - Lancaster, PA)
  • It was rumored that this was about heroin, as in "getting a fix." There is no truth to this rumor.

    Untitled (How Does It Feel) Song Chart
  • D'Angelo wrote this steamy song with Raphael Saadiq as a tribute to pop superstar Prince, particularly his early ballads.
  • To accompany this track about the singer pleading for some love from his girlfriend, directors Paul Hunter and Dominique Trenier shot a music video of D'Angelo lip-synching into the camera, wearing nothing but a gold cross around his neck. Or so it appeared: He was actually wearing pajama pants during the shoot but pulled them low to preserve the illusion that he was naked. While the clip was popular, it also generated controversy for its alleged sexual objectification.

    D'Angelo said of the video: "Well, I want you to feel what I was feeling or try to at least express that," he explains of his unintentional sex appeal. "It's [his sensuality] a part of me. It's always been a part of me. I never thought about it until after the fact. I never really explored it like that. It's not that I never wrote songs like that. They just weren't on Brown Sugar. I just wanted to do a song like that." The singer also underwent an intense training regimen to achieve his ripped physique.
  • This earned D'Angelo a Grammy Award for Best Male R&B Vocal Performance in 2001. It was also nominated for Best R&B Song but lost to "Say My Name" by Destiny's Child.
  • This was featured in the 2011 romantic comedy No Strings Attached, starring Natalie Portman and Ashton Kutcher.
  • In 2015, D'Angelo explained to Rolling Stone that the only issue he had with the video was that it sometimes overshadowed the song, but that's he's made peace with it. "I think people gravitated to how sexy and beautiful the song was," he said. "It wouldn't have raised the eyebrows it did if the song wasn't good. The video was just accompaniment."

    Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds Lyrics


    Picture yourself in a boat on a river
    With tangerine trees and marmalade skies
    Somebody calls you, you answer quite slowly
    A girl with kaleidoscope eyes

    Cellophane flowers of yellow and green
    Towering over your head
    Look for the girl with the sun in her eyes
    And she's gone

    Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds
    Lucy in the sky with diamonds
    Lucy in the sky with diamonds
    Ah

    Follow her down to a bridge by a fountain
    Where rocking horse people eat marshmallow pies
    Everyone smiles as you drift past the flowers
    That grow so incredibly high

    Newspaper taxis appear on the shore
    Waiting to take you away
    Climb in the back with your head in the clouds
    And you're gone

    Lucy in the sky with diamonds
    Lucy in the sky with diamonds
    Lucy in the sky with diamonds
    Ah

    Picture yourself on a train in a station
    With plasticine porters with looking glass ties
    Suddenly someone is there at the turnstile
    The girl with the kaleidoscope eyes

    Lucy in the sky with diamonds
    Lucy in the sky with diamonds
    Lucy in the sky with diamonds
    Ah
    Lucy in the sky with diamonds
    Lucy in the sky with diamonds
    Lucy in the sky with diamonds

    Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds Song Chart
  • The "Lucy" who inspired this song was Lucy O'Donnell (later Lucy Vodden), who was a classmate of John's son Julian Lennon when he was enrolled at the private Heath House School, in Weybridge, Surrey. It was in a 1975 interview that Lennon said "Julian came in one day with a picture about a school friend of his named Lucy. He had sketched in some stars in the sky and called it Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds."

    The identity of the real Lucy was confirmed by Julian in 2009 when she died of complications from Lupus. Lennon re-connected with her after she appeared on a BBC broadcast where she stated: "I remember Julian and I both doing pictures on a double-sided easel, throwing paint at each other, much to the horror of the classroom attendant… Julian had painted a picture and on that particular day his father turned up with the chauffeur to pick him up from school."

    Confusion over who was the real Lucy was fueled by a June 15, 2005 Daily Mail article that claimed the "Lucy" was Lucy Richardson, who grew up to become a successful movie art director on films such as 2000's Chocolat and 2004's The Life And Death Of Peter Sellers. Richardson died in June 2005 at the age of 47 of breast cancer.
  • Many people thought this was about drugs, since the letters "LSD" are prominent in the title, and John Lennon, who wrote it, was known to drop acid. In 1971 Lennon told Rolling Stone that he swore that he had no idea that the song's initials spelt L.S.D. He added: "I didn't even see it on the label. I didn't look at the initials. I don't look - I mean I never play things backwards. I listened to it as I made it. It's like there will be things on this one, if you fiddle about with it. I don't know what they are. Every time after that though I would look at the titles to see what it said, and usually they never said anything."

    Paul McCartney would later say it was "pretty obvious" that this song was inspired by LSD.
  • The images Lennon used in the song were inspired by the imagery in the book Alice In Wonderland.
  • George Harrison played a tambura on this. It's an Indian instrument similar to a sitar that makes a droning noise. He had been studying with Indian musician Ravi Shankar, who is the father of Norah Jones.
  • This was banned by the BBC (British Broadcasting Company) for what they thought were drug references.
  • In 1974, this was a #1 hit for Elton John. Lennon sang and played guitar on his version, but reportedly forgot some of the chords and needed Davey Johnston, Elton John's guitarist, to help him out. Lennon made a surprise appearance in Elton's Thanksgiving concert in New York and performed 3 songs, which proved to be his last public performance. (thanks, Ivan - Dallas, TX)
  • Actor William Shatner, who played Captain Kirk on Star Trek, covered this in his dramatic, spoken-word style. In at least one poll, this version was voted the worst Beatles cover of all time.
  • In 1974, Johanson and Gray named the 3-million-year-old Australopithecus fossil skeleton they discovered (the oldest ever found) Lucy, after this song because it was playing on the radio when Johanson and his team were celebrating the discovery back at camp. (thanks, Martuuuu - Capital Federal, Argentina)
  • Lennon said "The girl with kaleidoscope eyes" turned out to be Yoko.
  • During the media controversy over this song in June of 1967, Paul McCartney admitted to a reporter that the band did experiment with LSD. (thanks, Adrian - Wilmington, DE)
  • In 2004, McCartney addressed the issue of drugs in an interview with the Daily Mirror newspaper: "'Day Tripper,' that's one about acid. 'Lucy In The Sky,' that's pretty obvious. There are others that make subtle hints about drugs, but it's easy to overestimate the influence of drugs on The Beatles' music. Just about everyone was doing drugs in one form or another, and we were no different, but the writing was too important for us to mess it up by getting off our heads all the time."
  • A group called John Fred and his Playboy Band had a #1 hit in 1968 with "Judy In Disguise (with Glasses)," a song that was a parody of this.
  • In the Anthology one of the Beatles referred to being on LSD as like seeing through a kaleidoscope. Although Lennon denied this is about drugs, it does refer to "The girl with kaleidoscope eyes." (thanks, delirium trigger - new brunswick, NY)
  • This song is very distinctive musically. It's in 3 different keys and uses 2 different beats. (thanks, Bertrand - Paris, France)
  • Lennon admitted to British journalist Ray Connolly in an interview around the time of the break-up of the Beatles that he didn't think he sang this song very well. "I was so nervous I couldn't sing," he said, "but I like the lyrics."
  • In 2004 the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics announced the discovery of the universe's largest known diamond, white dwarf star BPM 37093. Astronomers gave the star the catchier name of "Lucy" from this song.
  • The Flaming Lips covered this as part of their track-for-track tribute to the Sgt. Pepper album, With a Little Help from My Fwends. Their version of this song features Miley Cyrus. Frontman Wayne Coyne told NME: "On my birthday, Miley Cyrus tweeted me 'Happy Birthday.' I texted back 'Let's do something together.' So we swapped numbers and soon found ourselves in the same studio. I've been around people in the same position to her and they are not fun.

    Pennies from Heaven Lyrics


    Pennies from Heaven Song Chart
  • This song was one of the biggest hits of the 1930s, and reflects the history of that period. It starts with a reminiscence of when the best things were free (the Roaring Twenties), and ends with encouragement to not give up but to wait out the storm (the Great Depression) because good things will follow.

    Pennies from heaven are sign of serendipity. In this song, no matter how much it rains, it will all turn out OK in the end. This optimistic sentiment was especially relevant to a Depression-era audience.
  • "Pennies from Heaven" was written by Johnny Burke and Arthur Johnston for a 1936 movie by the same name. This was the first of many hit lyrics that Johnny Burke wrote for Bing Crosby. The song, originally performed by Bing Crosby with Jimmy Dorsey and his orchestra, received the movie's only Academy Award nomination, but lost to "The Way You Look Tonight."
  • Billie Holiday also released a version of this song in 1936. Since then, it has also been recorded by Frank Sinatra (two versions – one with Count Basie), Louis Armstrong, Tony Bennett, Dinah Washington, Arthur Tracy, Big Joe Turner, Stan Getz, Dean Martin, Louis Prima, Andy Williams, The Skyliners, Michael Bublé, and many other singers.
  • Louis Prima recorded an abbreviated version of this song for his 1957 The Call of the Wildest album. His jubilant rendition was used in the 2003 movie Elf (when Buddy the Elf finds many fun new things in New York City, including revolving doors, discarded bubble gum on subway railings, and the world's best cup of coffee) and the 2008 movie Igor.

    Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band (reprise) Song Chart
  • This is an upbeat reprise of the first song and title track of the album. A "concept album," it was produced as if Sgt. Pepper's was a real band.
  • This song was produced in a rush when The Beatles decided to bring back the theme song to introduce the last track on the album, "A Day In The Life." The idea to reprise the song came from Neil Aspinall, The Beatles' friend and road manager.
  • The audience sounds were dubbed in to make it sound live.
  • John Lennon, Paul McCartney and George Harrison shared lead vocals.

    Run, Freedom, Run! Song Chart
  • This is a gospel-type song from the second act of Urinetown. Performed by Bobby Strong and the Poor, it has been suggested that this particular scene parodies Les Misérables.

    Like all the other songs in the show it has music by Mark Hollman, with lyrics by Hollman and Greg Kotis. (thanks, Alexander Baron - London, England)
