Paul McCartney’s new videoclip: Queenie Eye, filmed in the Abbey Road Studios, and as know already with special appearance of Johnny Depp, among others as Meryl Streep, Jude Law, Kate Moss, Sean Penn, etc.
The song is based on a children’s playground game. “Now this song, ‘Queenie Eye,’ is based on a game we used to play when I was kids,” McCartney explained. “You got to remember that’s a long time ago and basically in kind of a poor area I was from. What you did you entertain yourself was go out in the street and play street games. There wasn’t that much traffic, so you were pretty safe. And one of the games was called 'Queenie Eye.’”
Lyrics:
There were rules you never told me
Never came up with a plan
All the stories that you sold me
Didn’t help me understand
But I had to get it worked out
Had nobody who could help
So then in the end it turned out
That I had to do it
By myself…
That’s the game of rags to riches
Dogs and bitches hunt for fame
Until you think you know which way to turn
Make the day all the switches,
Wicked witches fan the flame
Careful what you touch in case you burn
Queenie eye queenie eye who’s got the ball
I haven’t got it, it isn’t in my pocket
O-U-T spells out that’s out
Without a shadow of a doubt
She could put it in about
Hear the people shout
Hear the people shout
Play the game, taking chances
Every dance is much the same
Doesn’t matter which event you choose
Never blame the circumstances,
With romances seldom came,
Never pick a fight you’re gonna lose
Queenie eye queenie eye who’s got the ball
I haven’t got it, it isn’t in my pocket
O-U-T spells out
That’s out
Without a shadow of a doubt
She could put it in about
Hear the people shout
Hear the people shout
It’s long way, to the finish
When you’ve never been before
I was nervous, but I did it
Now I’m going back for more
Here the people shout
Queenie eye queenie eye who’s got the ball
I haven’t got it, it isn’t in my pocket
O-U-T spells out
That’s out
Without a shadow of a doubt
She could put it in about
Hear the people shout
Hear the people shout
