by John Lennon and Paul McCartney

As Released by the Beatles (1968)

Come on, come on - come on, come on
Come on, it's such a joy
Come on, it's such a joy
Come on, let's take it easy
Come on, let's take it easy
Take it easy, take it easy
Everybody's got something to hide 'cept for me and my monkey - wuh.

The deeper you go, the higher you fly
The higher you fly, the deeper you go
So come on (come on) come on
Come on, it's such a joy
Come on, it's such a joy
Come on, let's make it easy
Come on, let's make it easy - wuh.
Take it easy, take it easy - wuh
Everybody's got something to hide 'cept for me and my monkey (yeah - wuh).

Your inside is out when your outside is in
Your outside is in when your inside is out
So come on (wuh), come on (wuh)
Come on, it's such a joy
Come on, it's such a joy
Come on, let's make it easy
Come on, let's make it easy
Make it easy (wuh), make it easy (wuh)
Everybody's got something to hide 'cept for me and my monkey - hey.

(Hey - yeah, wuh, yeah - wuh!)
Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come, ...
