Day in the Life
The Beatles Chillout Vol. 1 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Cus we get cash in
And I don't mean to do no bragging
Just day in the life of me
It's a day in the life of me
I'm in the latest fashion
Cus we get cash in
And I don't mean to do no bragging
It's a day in the life of me
What's a day in the life of K
Gotta stack this papes
I Gotta make these plays
I can't let this day go by
If I don't make a flip I won't sleep alright
They wanna know what I do
I can't go into detail just know I'm making moves
You don't benefit me the way I'm benefitting you
So mind how you talk before I exit the room
I just tripled up quickly
I'm busy getting money with the bullshit you can miss me
They said the way that I was going it was looking kinda risky
The rest is all history
I'm in the latest fashion
Cus we get cash in
And I don't mean to do no bragging
Just day in the life of me
It's a day in the life of me
I'm in the latest fashion
Cus we get cash in
And I don't mean to do no bragging
Just day in the life of me
It's a day in the life of me
I could talk bout drip
I got jeans with rips
I got tops with tags
I got kicks on kicks
Nuttin like them I know they notice
I'm an expert them man novice
I don't want to talk about no clothes I get this dough in
This ain't me tryna brag I'm stating facts hope you know this
It weren't by luck that I got it
I know that them man are hating and they're plotting
So I gotta keep it close to me
Cus I know for a fact they wanna roll on me
I know them demons want a hold of me
So I pray the lord watches over me
I'm in the latest fashion
Cus we get cash in
And I don't mean to do no bragging
Just day in the life of me
It's a day in the life of me
I'm in the latest fashion
Cus we get cash in
And I don't mean to do no bragging
Just day in the life of me
It's a day in the life of me
Im in the latest drip
Cus we make them flips
And I can't stop taking risks
Just day in the life of me
It's a day in the life of me
The lyrics to "Day in the Life" by The Beatles Chillout Vol. 1 are a contemplation of life and the value of freedom. The idea that life is "full of grace" and "love, mercy miles" suggests a positive outlook on the value of life but is immediately contrasted with the idea of "freedom fortune" that is linked to a "filthy child." This contrast between positive and negative associations creates a tension in the lyrics that highlights the complexity of life.
The second half of the lyrics address the theme of freedom more directly. The lines "Stick your jokes, your hoax in a box / Chew the chains, loose the locks / Lease your mind and find a better rate" suggest that true freedom requires both mental and physical liberation. However, the following line "If freedom feels like a first mistake" hints at the possibility that freedom may not always be the ideal state of being. The repetition of "Life in a day" underscores the idea that life is fleeting and that each moment should be cherished.

Hey I absolutely loved this video and don’t know I hadn’t found it earlier, I checked your channel and saw this is your only Beatles version of this so I (and probably a lot of other people) would love if you made a part 2 with a bunch of other great songs! If you do decide to do this might I recommend a few personal favorites I think would sound great!
-For No One
-Yesterday
-I’ve Just Seen A Face
-Hello Goodbye
-I Want To Hold Your Hand
-All My Loving
-Oh! Darling
-Hey Bulldog
-Get Back
-Ob La Di, Ob La Da
Those are just a few good ones of course you don’t have to do those there are still tons of other great songs and I do hope you make a part 2!

The Beatles have always been something comforting and familiar to turn to when I’m anxious or sad. I have a hard time falling asleep to music with words, so this is what I always end up listening to when I’m anxious and can’t sleep. The rain is a lovely bonus. Thank you ❤️
Gary Allen
The guitar is too closely miked, so that the plucking is harsh and prominent. This might sound good played on a lute or theorbo.
Dean Matson
Right songs

You're welcome 🙂 sleep well

Today has been such a difficult day. Thank you so much for this, I always come back to this whenever I’m feeling happy and especially when I’m down like today!

There’s something so beautiful about the fact that even without the lyrics this music is still so timeless and mesmerizing... the Beatles truly were the best and they always will be. This is a wonderful tribute to their music and memory
