Yellow Submarine
Rockabye Baby! Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Lived a man who sailed to sea
And he told us of his life
In the land of submarines
So we sailed up to the sun
Till we found the sea of green
And we lived beneath the waves
We all live in a yellow submarine
Yellow submarine, yellow submarine
We all live in a yellow submarine
Yellow submarine, yellow submarine
And our friends are all on board
Many more of them live next door
And the band begins to play
We all live in a yellow submarine
Yellow submarine, yellow submarine
We all live in a yellow submarine
Yellow submarine, yellow submarine
Full speed ahead, Mr. Parker, full speed ahead!
Full speed over here, sir!
Action station! Action station!
Aye, aye, sir, fire!
Heaven! Heaven!
As we live a life of ease (A life of ease)
Everyone of us (Everyone of us) has all we need (Has all we need)
Sky of blue (Sky of blue) and sea of green (Sea of green)
In our yellow (In our yellow) submarine (Submarine, ha, ha)
We all live in a yellow submarine
Yellow submarine, yellow submarine
We all live in a yellow submarine
Yellow submarine, yellow submarine
We all live in a yellow submarine
Yellow submarine, yellow submarine
We all live in a yellow submarine
Yellow submarine, yellow submarine
"Yellow Submarine" is a song by the legendary English rock band, The Beatles. It was written by Paul McCartney and John Lennon, and was released in 1966. The song is a perfect example of The Beatles' psychedelic era, and its lyrics are quite intriguing.
The song opens with a description of a man who sailed to sea and tells the singer of his life in the land of submarines. The singer then sails up to the sun with his friends until they find the sea of green. They then live beneath the waves in their yellow submarine. The classic chorus, "We all live in a yellow submarine" repeats throughout the song, with the band beginning to play as their friends come on board.
The lyrics are often interpreted as a call to escape the stresses of modern life and enter a world of peace and tranquility. The song is also an ode to The Beatles' own adventures and travels, as they embarked on a journey of artistic exploration and creativity. The use of a submarine references their self-imposed isolation from the outside world and their desire for unity within their own group.
Overall, "Yellow Submarine" is a powerful and memorable anthem of adventure and escape, capturing the spirit of The Beatles' music and their legendary career.
