Picture yourself in a boat on a river,
With tangerine trees and marmalade skies
Somebody calls you, you answer quite slowly,
A girl with kaleidoscope eyes.
Cellophane flowers of yellow and green,
Towering over your head.
Look for the girl with the sun in her eyes,
And she's gone.
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Ahh... [ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/b/beatles/lucy_in_the_sky_with_diamonds.html ]
Follow her down to a bridge by a fountain
Where rocking horse people eat marshmellow pies,
Everyone smiles as you drift past the flowers,
That grow so incredibly high.
Newspaper taxis appear on the shore,
Waiting to take you away.
Climb in the back with your head in the clouds,
And you're gone.
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Ahh...
Picture yourself on a train in a station,
With plasticine porters with looking glass ties,
Suddenly someone is there at the turnstyle,
The girl with the kaleidoscope eyes.
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Ahh...

It's a load of crap. The beatles were just a bunch of wight fisted tankers. Nothing they ever wrote or did was any good. There's a lot of hype about them, but that's all it is, just hype. There are only three types of song writing, and none of their songs fit any category, it's just dross lyrics and mediocre tunes.

I can only guess. I think it's about using your imagination. I get the feeling its about a cartoon with different colours. I love the song because it's just really catchy. I try so hard to imagine the things in the song. I get the thought that this is about imagination cause they say picture yourself... It suggests try to imagine these things. I drew a picture once of this song. I love it.
(yes, they were on drugs. ) so you want to know th meaning that they're trying to express through the song? They don't make it quite clear, nor do i think they were even really trying to make a point, but the one word that pops up in my mind is: peace.
If you ask me, it doesn't matter what this song is about- for what ever reason it was written, it was, and it's here today for us to listen to and enjoy. If they wrote it about love, drugs, whatever, it doesn't really matter in the end if you like this song.
The connection is obvious about lsd. But their denial of it always made me question?is it really about love and that picture
maybe it is about the connection between love and the drug
both can be addicting. Both make u do crazy things u wouldnt otherwise
The beatles always denied that the song was about lsd. What really happened was: john's son julian brought home a picture of his friend/ crush and it was of her in the night sky and it inspired john. That was how the song originally started. But i'm not gonna lie, it seems like more than just a coincidence with the whole lsd thing. So i kinda think it evolved into a song about drugs, but it started as a song based on that picture.
