Picture yourself in a boat on a river 
With tangerine trees and marmelade skies 
Somebody calls you, you answer quite slowly, 
girl with kaleidoscope eyes 
Cellophane flowers of yellow and green, 
Towering over your head 
Look for the girl with the sun in her eyes, 
And she's gone 
Lucy in the sky with diamonds 
Follow her down to a bridge by a fountain 
Where rocking horse people eat marshmallow pies, 
Everyone smiles as you drift past the flowers 
That grow so incredibly high. 
Newspaper taxis appear on the shore 
Waiting to take you away 
Climb in the back with your head in the clouds 
And you're gone 

Lucy in the sky with diamonds 
Picture yourself on a train in a station 
With plasticine porters with looking glass ties 
Suddenly someone is there at the turnstile 
The girl with the kaleidoscope eyes 
Lucy in the sky with diamonds...
