The trumpets sound.
The officers send their demands:
“Let’s ‘Come Together’!
Go away to the ‘Revolution’
on the ‘Long and
Winding Road’
where the ‘Blackbird’
‘Twist and Shout’
in the ‘Norwegian Wood’!”
And you go.
You escape without so much
as a “‘Hello, Goodbye”.
You’re “Here, There, Everywhere”
in my view.
On my doorstep on “Penny Lane”
You called for “Help!”.
I come running out
surprised to see your face.
You tell me,
“‘I Want to Hold Your Hand’
so close your eyes
and let me kiss you!”
“‘Hey Jude’,” I say,
“This isn’t ‘Yesterday’.
You’re too late.
This ‘Elanor Rigby’ is not for you.
Take your ‘Yellow Submarine’
‘Across the Universe’ because
‘Here Comes the Sun’ and
You ‘Can’t Buy Me Love’.”
