Slow Down
ell, come on pretty baby, won't you walk with me?
Come on, pretty baby, won't you talk with me?
Come on pretty baby, give me one more chance
Try to save our romance!
Slow down, baby, now you're movin' way too fast
You gotta gimme little lovin', gimme little lovin'
Ow! If you want our love to last
Well, I used to walk you home, baby, after school
Carry your books home, too
But now you got a boyfriend down the street
Baby what you're tryin' to do?
You better slow down!
Baby, now you're movin' way too fast
You gotta gimme little lovin', gimme little lovin'
Bbbbb! If you want our love to last
Well you know that I love you, tell the world I do
Come on, pretty baby, why can't you be true?
I need your baby, oh so bad
The best little woman I ever had
Slow down, baby, now you're movin' way too fast
You gotta gimme little lovin', gimme little lovin'
Ow! If you want our love to last
ell, come on pretty baby, won't you walk with me?
Come on, pretty baby, won't you talk with me?
Come on pretty baby, give me one more chance
Try to save our romance!
Slow down, baby, now you're movin' way too fast
You gotta gimme little lovin', gimme little lovin'
Ow! If you want our love to last
Well, I used to walk you home, baby, after school

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

A Taste Of Honey (live at the BBC)
taste of honey
Tasting much sweeter than wine (Do do'n'do, do do'n'do)
I dream of your first kiss
And them I feel upon my lips again
A taste of honey (A taste of honey)
Tasting much sweeter than wine
I will return, yes I will return
I'll come back for the honey and you (Do do'n'do, do do'n'do)
Yours was the kiss that awoke my heart
There it lingers still, though we're far apart
That taste of honey (A taste of honey)
Tasting much sweeter than wine (Do do'n'do, do do'n'do)
I will return, yes I will return
I'll come back (He'll come back) for the honey (For the honey) and you

I Am The Walrus (take 16)
take 16)
Woo...
I am he as you are he as you are me
And we are all together
See how they run like pigs from a gun see how they fly
I'm crying
Sitting on a cornflake waiting for the van to come
Corporation teeshirt, 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 goo joob
Mister City Policeman sitting
Pretty little policemen in a row
See how they fly like Lucy in the sky, see how they run
I'm crying, I'm crying
I'm crying, I'm crying
Yellow ... oh
Yellow matter custard dripping from a dead dog's 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 goo joob goo goo goo joob
Sitting in an English garden waiting for the sun
If the sun don't 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 goo joob goo goo goo goo joob
Expert textpert choking smokers
Don't you think the joker laughs at you?
See how they smile like pigs in a sty, see how they snied
I'm crying
Semolina pilchard climbing up the Eiffel Tower
Elementary penguin singing Hare Krishna
Man you should have seen them kicking Edgar Alan Poe
I am the eggman, they are the eggmen
I am the walrus, goo goo goo joob goo goo goo joob
Goo goo gooooooooooo jooooob goo goo
Jooba jooba jooba jooba
Jooba jooba jooba jooba jooba

Wait

Now I'm coming back home
I've been away now
Oh how, I've been alone
Wait till I come back to your side

Blackbird (take 4)
take 4)
Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these broken wings and learn to fly
All your life
You were only waiting for this moment to arise
Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these sunken eyes and learn to see
All your life
You were only waiting for this moment to be free
Blackbird fly, blackbird fly
Into the light of the dark black night
Mmmmuuuuu....

Octopus's Garden
'd like to be under the sea
In an octopus's garden in the shade
He'd let us in, knows where we've been
In his octopus's garden in the shade
I'd ask my friends to come and see
An octopus's garden with me
I'd like to be under the sea
In an octopus's garden in the shade
We would be warm below the storm
In our little hideaway beneath the waves
Resting our head on the sea bed
In an octopus's garden near a cave
We would sing and dance around
Because we know we can't be found
I'd like to be under the sea
In an octopus's garden in the shade
We would shout and swim about
The coral that lies beneath the waves
(Lies beneath the ocean waves)
Oh what joy for every girl and boy
Knowing they're happy and they're safe
(Happy and they're safe)
We would be so happy you and me
No one there to tell us what to do
I'd like to be under the sea
In an octopus's garden with you
In an octopus's garden with you
In an octopus's garden with you
'd like to be under the sea
In an octopus's garden in the shade
He'd let us in, knows where we've been
In his octopus's garden in the shade
I'd ask my friends to come and see
An octopus's garden with me
I'd like to be under the sea
In an octopus's garden in the shade
We would be warm below the storm
In our little hideaway beneath the waves
Resting our head on the sea bed
In an octopus's garden near a cave
We would sing and dance around
Because we know we can't be found
I'd like to be under the sea
In an octopus's garden in the shade
We would shout and swim about
The coral that lies beneath the waves
(Lies beneath the ocean waves)
Oh what joy for every girl and boy
Knowing they're happy and they're safe
(Happy and they're safe)
We would be so happy you and me
No one there to tell us what to do
I'd like to be under the sea
In an octopus's garden with you
In an octopus's garden with you
In an octopus's garden with you

The Beatles Christmas Record
o! Good King Wencelas looked out
On the feast of Stephen, ho!
As the slow ray round-around
Deep and crisp and crispy
Brightly show the boot last night
On the mossty cruel
Henry Hall and David Lloyd
Betty Grable too
Hell, this is John speaking with his voice. (Huh!) We're all very happy to be able to talk to you like this on this little bit of plastic. This record reaches you at the end of a really gear year for us and it's all due to you. When we made our first record on Parlophone towards the end of 1962, we hoped everybody would like what had already been our type of music fro serveral years already! But we had no idea of all the gear things in store for us. It all happened really when Please Please Me became a Number One hit and after that, well cor' the blimeys, heave the mo'. Our biggest thrill of the year, well, I suppose it must have been topping the bill at the London Palladium and then, only a couple of days later, being invited to take part in the Royal Variety Show. This time last year we were all dead chuffed because "Love Me Do" got into the Top Twenty and we can't believe really that so many things have happened in between already. Just before I pass you over to Paul (Arf! Arf! Arf! Arf!) I'd Like to say thank you to all the Beatle peoplee who have written to me during the year and everybody who sent gifts and cards for my birthday, which I'm trying to forget, in October. (Huh!) I'd like to reply personally to everybody but I just haven't enough pens. In the meantime...
Garry crimble to you
Garry mimble to you
Getty bable, dear Christmas
Happy birthday me too
This is Paul here. Everything that John said goes for me too, especially the bit about birthday cards and parcels, 'cause all our homes and offices got stacks of mail last June. Ow! Ha ha! When it was my birthday. Anyway, we're all dead pleased by the way you treated us in 1963 and we try to do everything we can to please you with the type of songs we'll write and record next year. Oh yeah, somebody asked us if we still like Jelly Babies? Well... we used to like them, in fact we loved them and said so in one of the papers. You see, ever since then we've been getting them in boxes, packets and crates. Anyway, we've gone right off Jelly Babies, you see, but we still like peppermint creams, chocolate drops and dolly mixtures and all that sort of things. (Yes! Yes! Oh Yes!)
Well, lots of people asked us what we enjoy best. You see, concerts and television or recording? We like doing stage shows 'cause, you know, it's great to hear an audience enjoying themseleves. But the thing we like best, I think so anyway, is going into the recording studio (Yes, we enjoy that very kindly) to make new records, which is what we've been doing all day before we started on this special message. Well, what we like to hear more is one of our songs, you know, taking shape in a recording studio, ah, one of the ones John and I have written and then listening to the tapes afterwards to hear how it all worked out, you see. Well, I'm running out of time and people are telling me to stop, (Stop! Stop!) and Ringo, (Stop! Stop shouting those animals!) so... I'll finish off now with it wishing everyone happy crimble and a merry New Year and especially all the ones who paid the subscription.
Ja, das wird uns danke schön
Und denn gruss von even
Ja, denn gruss von even schon
Ja, das wird wunderschön, boy
Danke schön
Ja, Ringo!
Hell, Ringo here. As you know I was the last member to join the Beatles. I started to play drums in the group 1962, ha ha ha! Have been in a couple of other groups... (Oh, just wish the people a merry, happy, go on, for Christmas, Christmas) Merry, happy New Year, and folks, happy Christmas and may, may everything you wish be granted. (Sing, sing us Wenceslas, King Wenceslas) King Wenceslas...
Well, good King Wenceslas looked out (Oh ho!)
On the feast of Stephen (Hey!)
When the snow was on the ground (Yeah!)
Deep and crisp and even (Oh yeah!)
Hooray!
Thank you, Ringo! Thank you, Ringo! We'll phone you! (Ha ha ha!) I'm George Harrison. Nobody else said anything yet about our fan club secretaries, Ann Collingham and Bettina Rose, not to mention Freda Kelly in Liverpool. (Good old Freda!) So on behalf of us all, I'd just like to say a great, big thank you to Ann, Bettina and Freda for all the hard work they've done and we just hope you can go on pleasing us for a long time, 'cause it's gonna cause it to your reactions are to our records that really matters, and I just like to say...
Brightly was the schon at night
Though the winter cruel
When a pork pie came inside
Gathering winter cruel
Rudolph, the red nosed reindeer (Ho!)
Had a very shiny nose (A shiny nose!)
When everybody picked it
Ha ha ha ha
Oh yeah! Oh!
Rudolph, the red nosed Ringo (Rudolph!)
Had a very shiny nose
Merry Christmas everybody!
