VERSE 1:
i am he as you are he as you are me
(and we are all together)
see how they run like pigs from a gunβ¦
see how they flyβ¦
iβm cryingβ¦
VERSE 2:
sitting on a cornflakeβ¦
waiting for the van to comeβ¦
Corporation tee shirt, stupid bloody Tuesday
Man you been a naughty boy. You let your face grow long
I am the eggman, they are the eggmen
I am the walrus, goo goo gβ joob
Mister City Policeman sitting, pretty little policemen in a row
See how they fly like Lucy in the sky, see how they run
Iβm crying, Iβm crying
Iβm crying, Iβm crying
Yellow matter custard dripping from a dead dogβs eye
Crabalocker fishwife pornographic priestess
Boy you been a naughty girl, you let your knickers down
I am the eggman, they are the eggmen
I am the walrus, goo goo gβ joob
Sitting in an English garden waiting for the sun
If the sun donβt come
You get a tan from standing in the English rain
I am the eggman, they are the eggmen
I am the walrus, goo goo gβ joob goo goo goo gβ joob
Expert texpert choking smokers
Donβt you think the joker laughs at you? (Ho ho ho! He he he! Ha ha ha!)
See how they smile like pigs in a sty, see how they snied
Iβm crying
Semolina pilchard climbing up the Eiffel Tower
Elementary penguin singing Hare Krishna
(Man you should have seen them kicking Edgar Allan Poe)
(i am the eggman
(they are the eggmen)
(i am the walrus, goo goo gβ joob goo goo gβ joob)
(Goo goo gβ joob goo goo gβ joob)
(goo gooooooooooo jooba jooba jooba jooba jooba jooba)
jooba jooba
jooba jooba
jooba jooba
