The Beatles – A Day In The Life
A day in the life es la canción con que la banda Los Beatles dan por finalizado su sencillo de estudio Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band. La canción comprende distintas secciones escritas independientemente por John Lennon Paul McCartney con unos arreglos de orquesta que la convierten en una obra maestra. La letra escrita por Lennon está inspirada en los titulares de noticias de los periódicos de la época mientras que la parte escrita por McCartney buscaba inspiración en los recuerdos más oscuros de su juventud. Una obra maestra compuesta por los mejores de la época y, muchos atreverían a decir, de toda la historia.

Beatles – A Day In The Life Lyrics
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 red 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.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.Woke up, fell out of bed,
Dragged a comb across my head
Found my 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,
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.
