Song lyrics
Picture yourself in a boat on a river
With tangerine trees and marmalade skies
Somebody calls you, you answer quite slowly
A girl with kaleidoscope eyes

Cellophane flowers of yellow and green
Towering over your head
Look for the girl with the sun in her eyes
And she's gone

Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Aaaaaah

Follow her down to a bridge by a fountain
Where rocking horse people eat marshmallow pies
Everyone smiles as you drift past the flowers
That grow so incredibly high

Newspaper taxis appear on the shore
Waiting to take you away
Climb in the back with your head in the clouds
And you're gone

Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Aaaaaah

Picture yourself on a train in a station
With plasticine porters with looking glass ties
Suddenly someone is there at the turnstile
The girl with kaleidoscope eyes

Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Aaaaaah
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Aaaaaah
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds...

Okay, you can spell the song LSD, that's right, but check this link, it explains the title was just a coincidence. Yes, the Beatles used LSD, but not all they wrote was about drugs. On the album "Sergeant Pepper's Lonely hearts club band", at a time when they were 'big users', only 'Lucy in the sky with diamonds' can be seen as a drug song, all other songs are excellent stories, sometimes based on little things. For example, John Lennon wrote 'Being for the benefit of mr. Kite' based on an antique circus poster he had bought. 'A day in the life' was based on an article in 'the Daily Mail' about a friend of the Beatles who crashed his car into a lamp-post and an article about 4.000 holes in the streets of Blackburn. The genius in combining those two parts who have nothing in common comes from Mc Cartney.

Almost everything by the Beatles is good enough to BUY (but you could always give it a try downloading it, or ask your parents if they have the original albums)

I do have to say i think this song is about LSD i mean like it says put your head in the clouds and your gone and i mean just look what it is named, and The beatles were pretty much druggies and they expertimented a lot with different drugs so i can just see why it could be about LSD.

the song title refers to a picture julian lennon (one of john's sons) drew at school and brought home to his father. lucy was a girl in his class, and the picture was called [and was of] lucy in the sky with diamonds. lennon thought it sounded cool, and wrote a song around it. The LSD thing is a coincidence, and nothing more.

but ofcourse they dropped a lot of acid, and much of their music at the time (and lucy is no exception) tried to encapsulate the experiences they felt. the best example is perhaps george's 'It's all too much' which is a more graphic, deliberate musical portrayal of dropping too much acid.

this is a great song. the lsd thing is indeed just a coincidence. if it was about lsd, i don't think lennon and the whole band would deny it.
GREAT SONG
