Hey Ringo, I just had the strangest dream.
I warned you not to eat on an empty stomach.

Yellow Submarine quotes
Page 2 of 5If I could come in, here, I think the theory put forward by Einstein.
Could well be applied here. The people in the ball are obviously extensions of our own personalities, suspended, as it were, in time, frozen in space.
Uh, John.
According to the now-famous theory of relativity.
[They charge at the glass with one of the columns, but it bounces with a bang]
Beating lightly, and adding a little salt and pepper to taste.
John!
How do we get them out?
Break the glass.
We can't!
It's Beatle-proof.
Nothing is Beatle-proof.
Well fellas, now Ringo's gone. What should we do?
Old Fred
Learn to sing trios.
Nah, let's save the poor devil.
Lord Mayor
Four scores and 32 bars ago, our four fathers
A quartet?
Lord Mayor
And four mothers
A Mother quartet?
Lord Mayor
Made their way in this yellow submarine...
What, that little thing?
Lord Mayor
...to Pepperland.
[The Beatles are shown as their live action selves, after It's All Too Much ends.]
Catchy tune, that.
I can't seem to get it out of my head.
Well shake it!
That's what we've been doing all night.
Oh?
Yeah, it was a great party.
And we brought back lots of lovely souvenirs. [takes out a kite string with a wind-up mistaken for a motor] Here's the motor.
And I've got a little...love! [the word "love" comes out of his hand]
And I've got a hole in my pocket [takes out a fake hole from his pocket]
A hole?
What can he do with half a hole?
Fix it to keep his mind from wandering! Ha ha!
What's the matter, John love? Blue Meanies?
Newer and bluer meanies have been sighted within the vicinity of this theater! There's only one way to go out.
How's that?
Singing!
Lord Mayor
They're exactly like the originals!
Beatles
We are the originals.
Mayor
Your Faces!
We're quite cute, really.
Old Fred
I don't mean to alarm you, mates, but the years are going backwards!
What's that mean, Old Fred?
Old Fred
It means if we slip back in time at this rate, very soon we'll all disappear up our own existence!
Groovy! How do you start this thing?
She starts with a Blue Meanie attack.
Well... supposing there are no Blue Meanies in the neighbourhood?
Oh, well, then you, um, start looking for a switch.
Look, it's a school of whales.
They look a little bit old for school.
University then.
University of whales.
They look like drop-outs to me.
Shhh!
What did you say?
Shhh!
Good plan.
I wonder what would happen if I pull this lever.
You musn't do that!
I can't help it, I'm a born Liver-pooler.[2]
Here, Bubo; Bubo! come with us!
Really? You'd take a Nowhere Man?
Jeremy! Can it be you?
Can it be me? I think you'd better inquire of the guards, for when I was captured, they took all my cards!
Get back! Get back! Once more unto the breach, dear Meanies! You're advancing the wrong way! Retreat backwards! Get back there now! [begins to cry] My kingdom for a horse! [stops crying when he confronts Jeremy] I think I'll tear him up into little pieces.
Oh, he does, does he?
Yes, I think I'll make a blueburger out of him.
I don't care what you think. [turns to go]
Oh, you don't, eh?! [grabs Jeremy] We'll soon see about that!
[cornered]
He does, in truth, seem quite annoyed. Some reference material be-be-before I'm destroyed! [reading from his book] "Where ground is soft most often grows, arise! Arise! Arouse! A rose! [a rose sprouts on the Chief Blue Meanie's nose] A rosy nose?
Peace! Peace! Supplant the doom and the gloom! Turn off what is sour! Turn into a flower and bloom! Bloom! Bloom! [roses sprout all over the Chief Blue Meanie] Bloom! Bloom! Bloom! Bloom! Bloom!
[now very upset]
I'LL TEAR YOU TO PIECES!!! [screams as he is now covered himself with roses, and runs away with the rest of the Meanies]
[Jeremy is dancing among the flowers] [to John, about Jeremy]
First time I saw that Nowhere Man, that Nobody, "I" knew he was Somebody.
You're right. [calling out to the Blue Meanies] Hello, there, blue people! Won't you join us?! Hook up, and otherwise co-mingle?! What do you say?!
Your Blue - uh, I mean, er, Your Newness?
It's no longer a blue world, Max. Where could we go?
Argentina?
Are you with us?! Will you join?!
[arriving]
Yes! Ah, yes is a word with a glorious ring! [shakes hand with the Chief Blue Meanie] A true universal utopious thing! [helps Max up] Engenders embracing and chasing of blues, the very best word for the whole world to use! [dances away merrily]
Yes, let us mix, Max. [Max nodded] I've never admitted it before, but my cousin is the Bluebird of Happiness!
All right then. Let's get this vessel shipshape.
I kind of like it the way it is. Submarine shape.
