[Speech]
Geoff Emerick: "In the Life Of", Take 1
John: Dab the mic on the piano, and quite low, this, just keep it in like, maracas you know. You know those old pianos
John: Okay we're on. Mouth
John: Sugarplum fairy, sugarplum fairy

[Verse 1: John Lennon]
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

[Verse 2: John Lennon]
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
Nobody was really sure if he was from the House of Lords

[Verse 3: John Lennon]
I saw a film today, oh, boy
The English Army had just won the war
A crowd of people turned away
But I just had to look
Having read the book
I'd love to turn you on
