JOHN 1967: 'I often sit at the piano, working at songs with the television on low in the background.
If I'm a bit low and not getting much done, the words from the telly come through.
That's when I heard the words, 'Good Morning Good Morning.''

JOHN 1968: 'We write about our past.
'Good Morning, Good Morning,' I was never proud of it.
I just knocked it off to do a song.
But it was writing about my past so it does get the kids because it was me at school, my whole bit.'

JOHN 1972: 'A bit of gobbledygook, but nice words.'

PAUL 1984: ''Good Morning' – John's.
That was our first major use of sound effects, I think.
We had horses and chickens and dogs and all sorts running through it.'

Good morning, good morning
Good morning, good morning
Good morning ah

Nothing to do to save his life call his wife in
Nothing to say but what a day how's your boy been
Nothing to do it's up to you
I've got nothing to say but it's OK

Good morning, good morning
Good morning ah

Going to work don't want to go feeling low down
Heading for home you start to roam then you're in town
Everybody knows there's nothing doing
Everything is closed it's like a ruin
Everyone you see is half asleep
And you're on your own you're in the street

After a while you start to smile now you feel cool
Then you decide to take a walk by the old school
Nothing is changed it's still the same
I've got nothing to say but it's OK

Good morning, good morning
Good morning ah

People running round it's five o'clock
Everywhere in town is getting dark
Everyone you see is full of life
It's time for tea and meet the wife

Somebody needs to know the time, glad that I'm here
Watching the skirts you start to flirt now you're in gear
Go to a show you hope she goes
I've got nothing to say but it's OK

Good morning, good morning, good
Good morning, good morning, good
Good morning, good morning, good
Good morning, good morning, good
Good morning, good morning, good
Good morning, good morning, good
Good morning, good morning, good
Good morning, good morning, good
Good morning, good morning, good
Good morning, good morning, good
