0:03 - 0:07In Penny Lane there is a barber showing photographs
-
0:07 - 0:11Of every head he's had the pleasure to know
-
0:11 - 0:15And all the people that come and go
-
0:15 - 0:18Stop and say hello
-
0:20 - 0:24On the corner is a banker with a motorcar
-
0:24 - 0:28The little children laugh at him behind his back
-
0:28 - 0:32And the banker never wears a mack
-
0:32 - 0:35In the pouring rain,
-
0:35 - 0:37very strange
-
0:37 - 0:44Penny Lane is in my ears and in my eyes
-
0:46 - 0:54There beneath the blue suburban skies
I sit, and meanwhile back -
0:54 - 0:58In Penny Lane there is a fireman with an hourglass
-
0:58 - 1:02And in his pocket is a portrait of the queen
-
1:02 - 1:06He likes to keep his fire engine clean
-
1:06 - 1:09It's a clean machine
-
1:28 - 1:34Penny Lane is in my ears and in my eyes
-
1:37 - 1:44A four of fish and finger pies
In summer, meanwhile back -
1:44 - 1:49Behind the shelter in the middle of a roundabout
-
1:49 - 1:52The pretty nurse is selling poppies from a tray
-
1:53 - 1:59And though she feels as if she's in a play
She is anyway -
2:01 - 2:05In Penny Lane the barber shaves another customer
-
2:05 - 2:09We see the banker sitting waiting for a trim
-
2:10 - 2:14And then the fireman rushes in
-
2:14 - 2:16From the pouring rain,
-
2:17 - 2:19very strange
-
2:19 - 2:25Penny lane is in my ears and in my eyes
-
2:27 - 2:35There beneath the blue suburban skies
I sit, and meanwhile back -
2:35 - 2:41Penny lane is in my ears and in my eyes
-
2:44 - 2:50There beneath the blue suburban skies

Two days after recording some overdubs for 'A Day In The Life', The Beatles spent the afternoon in East London at Angel Lane, Stratford, filming scenes for the video of 'Penny Lane' with Scandinavian director, Peter Goldmann.
Shortly after the East London shoot, Goldmann and The Beatles headed to Knole Park, the grounds of a stately home in Kent, to film scenes of the band horse-riding in the countryside. Around this time, Goldmann and his crew (but minus The Beatles) travelled to Liverpool to shoot the sequences near to Penny Lane.
A few days before filming started for 'Penny Lane', Goldmann shot a promo for 'Strawberry Fields Forever'. Both shoots presented a challenge for everyone involved owing to the Musicians' Union ban on any action that could be construed as miming. Despite these limitations, both the films Goldmann made were so innovative that neither would have looked out of place on MTV a decade and a half later.
