I read the news today, oh boy,
About a lucky man who made the
grade.
And though the news was rather sad,
Well, I just had to laugh.
I saw the photograph.

He blew his mind out in a car.
He didn't notice that the lights had
changed.
A crowd of people stood and stared.
They'd seen his face before, but nobody
was really sure if he was from
the House of Lords.

I saw a film today, oh boy,
The English army had just won the war.
A crowd of people turned away.
Well I just had to look, having read
The book.

I'd love to turn you on.

Woke up, fell out of bed,
Dragged a comb across my head.
Found the way downstairs, and drank
A cup.
And looking up, I noticed I was late.
Found my coat and grabbed my hat,
Made the bus in seconds flat.
Found my way upstairs and had a smoke,
and somebody spoke and I went into a
Dream.

I read the news today, oh boy,
four thousand holes in Blackburn,
Lancashire.
And though the holes were rather small,
They had to count them all.
Now they know how many holes it takes
To fill the Albert Hall.

I'd love to turn you on.
