    Straight away I have got National Health, It's Doctor Robert. Nearly put Happiness Is A Warm Gun but that's National Trust.

    Lemonade is from Rain, probably my favorite Beatles track.

    If you ever want to read a wonderful analysis of all the Beatles' songs, there is a book, 'Revolution in the Head' by Ian MacDonald, I have a copy and it is a great read. It really is worth seeking out.

    Slowed down a bit so I will give you "misunderstanding", which is from one of their very best songs, Strawberry Fields Forever.
    Living is easy with eyes closed
    Misunderstanding all you see
    It's getting hard to be someone, but it all works out
    It doesn't matter much to me

    Sing along now.

    Wonder could be a number of songs. Wonders however is And Your Bird Can Sing.

    Investigation, is You Never Give Me Your Money.

    I mentioned Strawberry Fields, so I'll give the other side of that single, Penny Lane. "It's a clean machine", referring to the fire engine.

    Of course. I was thinking of Cry Baby Cry for table. There may be more. I love the white album.

    Got that one now not a track I listen to much. As I'm not a great fan of Georges "Indian" tracks but its Within Without You.

    (Put Sgt Pepper on after MMT it just reached Within Without)


    Line from Rocky Raccoon

    Now the doctor came in stinking of gin
    And proceeded to lie on the table
    He said Rocky you met your match
    And Rocky said, doc it's only a scratch
    And I'll be better I'll be better doc as soon as I am able

    I'm a bit surprised that there are three tables hidden in Beatles' songs!

    If anyone wants to have a stab at giving us more words in Beatles' songs I won't mind at all

    Yes your right DOH! I'm Only Sleeping IS upstream.

    Yeah, its funny that - upstream & downstream being by the same writer on the same album on two different songs. The LSD was certainly having an influence there!

    Within You Without You. I've skipped that track too often, although I like it more now that when first released.

    Three tables on the white album. Got two of them, but not the third.
