The Fab Four
Four Young Lads from Liverpool
John, Paul, George and Stewie
Playing Skiffle and acting the fool
Decided they would form a band.
Went across to Germany ..played beat music O so free
First Silver Beatles their name would be
Poppin pills and Late night ills
So much fun, Stewie now gave it away for art
Then left off the silver when they had some fame
My Bonnie Lies over the Ocean
Went back to England played at the Cavern club.
A place of latest trends..the groovers hub.
Many came to see and dance to their beat
Epstein came along, took control..he turned up the heat
Released some songs that rocked the world off its seat
Drummer sacked, couldn't hack the score
Ringo joined up and they again were four.
Love me do, Just Love me do
The power of four that became the real cool band
Four young lads they wanted to hold your hand
John, Paul, George and Ringo
Now they started to Joke and really play
Made some films ..Help and Hard Day
Singing to the rhythm of the Liverpool streets
Turning on the sixty’s to their Liverpudlian beat
Psychedelia and Acid to go
Started to sing ..and I love her so..
Revolver span a new tune
Now John could write his angry words against war and strange
Shaking heads and rockin screamin crowds right of their feet
Whilst Paul sang of soft sounds of yesterday ballads
Makin all the ladies swoon of their feet
George was the spirit influence of this unique sound
He took the lads to a spiritual round
Whilst Ringo stix provided the rhythms they would always play
Jungle rhythms and heavy snap drum beat stay
St Pepper played his band
Songs that had a new feel and sometimes surreal
Beautiful rhythms like Strawberry field
They told the world some home truths of their own
Like War is Over ..go one back home
Chorus’s would sing sad songs of alone
Lucy in the Sky really talked of stone
Yet these four boys made our world their home
Sang songs Get back
Formed the Apple studios for all music to be free
Many musicians now came, learned and now be
Abbey Road was a great triumph
Lots of come together and lots of crunch
Egos started fighting and Apple lost its bunch
Law Suits followed and Four were out to Lunch
The Great Lennon, McCartney partnership was torn
Death of the Four , White Album born
When rock was asleep they turned up the heat
Now we’re all singing their words in the street
Screaming fans followed them everywhere
Four young lads , just havin fun , couldn't care less
Questions and morals they all turned around
Many have listened to the wonderful sound
But that was Yesterday and here is now
Sadly now the great talents of John and George have gone
All over the world Radios are still haunted by their ever song
