Beatles

Dave Oakes


Four winged horsemen
Riding through the skies
On steeds made of steel
Always higher can they fly.
They repeatedly share their anthem
With any and all around
Never lacking for listeners
Their popularity does abound.
They travel down Abbey Road
And cross over Strawberry fields
Tracking down Sergeant Pepper
While brandishing shimmering shields.
They find themselves on a magical mystery tour
Getting by with a little help from their friends
They realize that all you need is love
Which Lady Madonna always sends.
Traveling through an octopuses garden
Where everything is thrown helter skelter
They go quickly down Penny Lane
To get themselves back to the USSR and shelter.
They have always come together
And beat all they faced
Yesterday they had something
Throughout a day in the life was laced.
Sure success followed after them
No one could ever match his or her feats
Until the news they fought themselves
Knocked us back upon our seats.
Thoughts that they would be no more
New and wondrous ideas explored
Life could never be the same
Without their adventures you would be bored.
Never to ride together again
They at least would continue to ride alone
And whatever they do from this point on
Their gifts are among the greatest ever known.
