Beatles songs, She Came In Through the Bathroom Window

She Came In Through the Bathroom Window

(Paul McCartney – John Lennon and Paul McCartney)

1969 - Abbey Road
1996 - Anthology 3

GEORGE 1969: 'A very strange song of Paul's with terrific lyrics, but it's hard to explain what they're all about.'

JOHN 1980: 'He wrote that when we were in New York announcing Apple and we first met Linda.
Maybe she's the one that came in the window.'

(Gonna come out now
Ha ha ha
Wow look out.)

She came in through the bathroom window
Protected by a silver spoon
But now she sucks her thumb and wonders
By the banks of her own lagoon

Didn't anybody tell her?
Didn't anybody see?
Sunday's on the phone to Monday
Tuesday's on the phone to me

She said she'd always been a dancer
She worked at fifteen clubs a day
And though she thought I knew the answer
Well, I knew what I could not say

And so I quit the police department
And got myself a steady job
And though she tried her best to help me
She could steal, but she could not rob

Didn't anybody tell her?
Didn't anybody see?
Sunday's on the phone to Monday
Tuesday's on the phone to me, oh yeah
