Bored of the life in the city of gold
He'd left and let nobody know.
Gone were the towers he had known from a child,
Along with the dream of a life
He travelled the wide open road,
the blinkered arcade,
In search of another to share in his life, nowhere
Everyone looked so strange to him.

They got no horns and they got no tail
They don't even know of our existence.
Am I wrong to believe in the city of gold
That lies in the deep distance?

He cried and wept as they led him away to a cage
"Beast That Can Talk", read the sign.
The creatures, they pushed and they prodded his frame
And questioned his story again.
But soon they grew bored of their prey
"Beast That Can Talk"?
More like a freak or publicity stunt,
Oh oh, no no. . .


They got no horns and they got no tail
They don't even know of our existence.
Am I wrong to believe in the city of gold
That lies in the deep distance?

He cried and broke down the door of the cage
And marched on out.
He grabbed a creature by the scruff of his neck, pointing out:

There, beyond the bounds of your weak imagination
Lie the noble towers of my city, bright and gold.
Let me take you there and show you a living story
Let me show you others such as me,
Why did I ever leave?

"They've got no horns and they've got no tail
They don't even know of our existence
Am I wrong to believe in the city of gold
That lies in the deep distance?",
He cried and wept.

And so we set out with the beast and his horns
And his crazy description of home.
After many days journey, we came to a peak
Where the beast gazed abroad and cried out.
We followed his gaze and we thought that maybe we saw
A spire of gold - no, a trick of the eye, that's all,
But the beast was gone and a voice was heard:

"They got no horns and they got no tail
They don't even know of our existence
Am I wrong to believe in the city of gold
That lies in the deep distance?"

Welcome home.

Was it summer when the river ran dry
Or was it just another dam
When the evil of a snowflake in June
Could still be a source of relief
Oh how I love you, I once cried long ago
To search beyond the final crest
Though I'd heard it said just birds could dwell so high

So I pretended to have wings for my arms
And took off in the air
I flew to places which the clouds never see
Too close to the deserts of sand
Where a thousand mirages, the shepherds of lies
Forced me to land and take a disguise
I would welcome a horse's kick to send me back
If I could find a horse not made of sand

If this desert's all there'll ever be
Then tell me what becomes of me
A fall of rain ?
That must have been another of your dreams
A dream of mad man moon

Hey man
I'm the sand man
And boy have I news for you
They're gonna throw you in jail
And you know they can't fail
Cos sand is thicker than blood
But a prison in sand
Is a haven in hell
For a jail can give you a goal
And a goal can find you a role
On a muddy pitch in Newcastle
Where it rains so much
You can't wait for a touch
Of sun and sand

Within the valley of shadowless death
They pray for thunderclouds and rain
But to the multitude who stand in the rain
Heaven is where the sun shines
The grass will be greener till the stems turn to brown
And thoughts will fly higher till the earth brings them down
Forever caught in desert lands one has to learn
To disbelieve the sea

If this desert's all there'll ever be
Then tell me what becomes of me
A fall of rain ?
That must have been another of your dreams
A dream of mad man moon

(1967) - "Un dia en la vida" es una canción compuesta por John Lennon y Paul McCartney e incluida en el álbum de The Beatles Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band de 1967. La canción es resultado de la combinación de dos fragmentos distintos, pero en última instancia, complementarios, uno de los cuales había sido escrito por Lennon y el otro, por McCartney. Este último fue ubicado en a la mitad de la canción aproximadamente, en medio del fragmento de Lennon. Apareciendo en ella letras impresionistas, innovadoras técnicas de producción y complejos preparativos incluyendo un cacofónico y parcialmente improvisado crescendo orquestal, la canción es considerada uno de los más ambiciosos, influyentes e innovadores trabajos en la historia de la música pop. El piano del final, es tocado por cinco personas (Lennon, McCartney, Starr, George Martin y Mal Evans) en tres pianos.esta canción además de ser muy popular representa un parteaguas en la musica instrumental ya que la utilización de sonidos es muy variada y armoniosa además de las voces las cuales son, cabe decir, espectaculares.
