I thought I had posted this one, but it isn’t coming up with any of my searches. This makes me think Macca doesn’t like to go to funerals. a-hard-days-night-paul-10

Eleanor Rigby

Father Mckenzie, wiping the dirt from his hands as he walks from the grave,

No one was saved.

Band On The Run

Well, the undertaker drew a heavy sigh 

Seeing no one else had come

EDIT: Found the comparison in another thread (from a post in 2015) https://www.beatlesbible.com/f…..4/#p179523

What’s up with George and the floor?

If Not for You

I couldn’t even see the floor

While My Guitar Gently Weeps

I look at the floor and I see it needs sweeping

The Night Before

We said our goodbyes, ah, the night before
Love was in your eyes, ah, the night before
Now today I find you have changed your mind

Honey Don’t

Well, sometimes I love you on a Saturday night
Sunday morning you don’t look right
You been out painting the town

I’m Looking Through You

Love has a nasty habit of disappearing overnight

All Things Must Pass

Seems my love is up 
And has left you with no warning

Well Bob Dylan did write that first lyric…

Here’s one that’s been in the back of my mind for a while:

Sitting on a cornflake, waiting for the van to comeI Am The Walrus

Standing in the hall of the great cathedral, waiting for the transport to come Venus And Mars (Reprise)

And surely this counts, they are two different songs after all…

A good friend of mine follows the stars, Venus And Mars are alright tonight Venus And Mars

A good friend of mine studies the stars, Venus And Mars are alright tonight Venus And Mars (Reprise)

Why am I wrong all the time?
I’m not the one who has changed
You look with a new point of view
I still look at you the same

It’s a bad point of view

Not a metaphor(or is it?a-hard-days-night-paul-4), but in English Tea there’s the line

“Miles and miles of English garden/Stretching past the willow tree”

It just came mind when I saw this thread that “Rain ” and “Mamunia” both use “rain” as a metaphorical theme.

I was actually thinking along these lines today while listening to I Don’t Know on Egypt Station.

My brother told me
Life’s not a pain
That was right when it started to rain
Where am I going wrong, I don’t know

Which also made me think of

It’s not right, in one life
Too much rain

Then, this popped into my mind from Road on New.

We came from nowhere

Matching themes: Rain – Mamunia 

Rain , I don’t mind.’ ‘The next time you see rain, it ain’t bad.’ 

Though Rain is more ‘It’s all in yer mind, weather matters not’, whereas Mamunia is more ‘Appreciate the rain and all it brings!’
