We suppose darning your socks at night is something lonely people would do. While Beatles fans visit a tombstone for Eleanor Rigby, Paul McCartney maintains that he simply came up with the name.

1. A ship's officer
   A submersible
2. A periscope
   A typhoon

The cheerful "Yellow Submarine" song features Ringo singing the lead vocals. And although fans have tried to read special meaning into it, the Beatles always insisted it was a simple children's song.

1. All of nature
   A desire
2. The enemy
   An empty space

"Tomorrow Never Knows" is reportedly about John Lennon's experiments with LSD. The song uses Indian instruments like the sitar and the tanpura to create a psychedelic listening experience!

1. An orchestra
   An excited feeling
2. A spectacle
   A grand performance

We still get a thrill listening to all of "Sgt. Pepper's." Many a Beatles fan has spent a great deal of time poring over the cover art. Bonus points if you can name some of the famous people!

1. Not in harmony
   Locked out
2. All alone
   Intoxicated

No, Ringo, we wouldn't walk out on you, no matter how you sang! And we'll lend you our ears anytime. Joe Cocker's cover of this song was also a hit and appeared as the theme song for "Wonder Years."

1. A pair of sunglasses
   Something that sparkles brightly
2. A tool that lets you look through objects
   An instrument that lets you see different patterns

John Lennon always denied that the song's title came from LSD. Instead, he said that his young son Julian showed him a picture he'd drawn of his friend Lucy — in the sky with diamonds — art inspiring art.

1. Causing someone pain
   Uncertain
2. Imaginary
   Singing too loud

Lennon and McCartney co-wrote this "Sgt. Pepper's" song, which balances optimism and pessimism. Lennon refers to his history of abusive relationships in the lyrics with surprising candidness.

1. Bean
   Vegetable
2. Fruit
   Bread

Chapatti is an Indian flatbread, also known as pulkha or roti, resembling a pancake. Maybe Mary Jane had a "pain at the party" because she ate 12 of them! This song appeared on "Anthology 3."

1. Hidden
   Surprising
2. Not given
   Uncomfortable

McCartney wrote "She's Leaving Home" for "Sgt. Pepper's" based on a newspaper story of a young girl who ran away with her boyfriend. It was Lennon's idea to sustain the notes in the chorus.

1. Hard plastic
   Modeling clay
2. A rare gem
   A buttery substance

"Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds" contains a lot of vivid, fanciful imagery that Lennon attributed to his enjoying "Alice in Wonderland" by Lewis Carroll. The plasticine porters have "looking glass ties," meaning they are like mirrors.

1. A big barrel
   A pig's head
2. A circus wagon
   A trapeze

"Being for the Benefit of Mr. Kite!" advertises a circus, and that's because Lennon took most of the lyrics from an old circus poster. We're sure it was quite a sight to see Henry the Horse waltzing!

1. A false perception of reality
   A really strong material
2. A terrible nightmare
   A photographic scene

George Harrison wrote "Within You Without You" after hanging out in India with the sitar player Ravi Shankar. The song's spiritual lyrics reflect Harrison's growing interest in Hinduism.

1. Be thrifty
   Dig for crabs
2. Cook pasta
   Leave hastily

Although "When I'm Sixty-Four" appeared on the Beatles' eighth studio album, "Sgt. Pepper's," McCartney actually wrote it in his teens, when he and the Beatles played nightclubs in Liverpool.

1. Earnestly
   Sorrowfully
2. Cautiously
   Hopefully

The lighthearted "Lovely Rita" describes the singer's date with a meter maid. Although the song was released back in 1967, no Beatle sang it live until McCartney performed the song on his 2013 tour.

1. Jumping jacks
   Handstands
2. Acrobatic flips
   Juggling tricks

"Summerset" is a variation of "somersault." Since Lennon took most of the lyrics for this song from an 1800s circus poster, it makes sense that he would use the old-fashioned spelling of this word.

1. A sausage
   A cocktail
2. An egg yolk
   A dessert

Custard is a dessert made from milk, egg and sugar — the filling in Boston cream pies. Sounds good, right? It seems somewhat less appealing in the song when it's "dripping from a dead dog's eye."

1. A raincoat
   A noodle
2. A photo
   A barber

"Mac" is short for "Mackintosh," a British word for a raincoat. So yes, we'd agree it's "very strange" for a person to never wear one in the pouring rain. The song features a piccolo trumpet solo.

1. Stringed musical instruments
   Dog sleds
2. Woolen hats
   Shoes made for walking in snow

McCartney wrote this song as a send-up of Chuck Berry's "Back in the U.S.A." Mike Love of the Beach Boys heard McCartney playing it and suggested adding the part about the Russian girls.

1. An interlocking joint
   A bird's plumage
2. A peace offering
   A flower chain

Lennon apparently wanted to toy with fans who looked for hidden messages in all the Beatles' lyrics. In 1968 they got to unpeel "Glass Onion," a song that alludes to several previous Beatles songs.

1. A vacation
   A dose of medicine
2. A selfie
   A streetcar

There was some contention between McCartney and musician Jimmy Scott over the phrase in the title. Scott wanted a writing credit because he frequently used the expression in his performances.

1. An approximate time
   A traffic circle
2. A suburb
   An hourglass

1. Hostile
   Old
2. Jealous
   Forgetful

"The Continuing Story of Bungalow Bill" was notable for including Yoko Ono's vocals. According to Lennon, he wrote the song in mockery of a man the Beatles met at a spiritual retreat in India.

1. Horseback riding shoes
   Boots with nails in the soles
2. Knee-length boots
   Shoes with multiple buckles

According to biographers, "Happiness Is a Warm Gun" was each of the bandmember's favorite song from "The Beatles" (or the White Album). Lennon took the title from an American Rifleman magazine article.

1. A thief
   A salesperson
2. A cranky person
   A useless person

While in India meditating with Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, Lennon had trouble sleeping and also missed Yoko Ono. So he wrote this song, which anyone who's had some sleepless nights can relate to.

1. A bar
   A dance party
2. A police station
   An inn

This Beatles song inspired the Marvel character Rocket Raccoon, one of the Guardians of the Galaxy. The record producer George Martin played the piano honky-tonk style for the song.

1. Hungry
   Sleepy
2. Itchy
   Crazy

The Beatles recorded "Honey Pie," one of the songs for the White Album, to sound like a music hall performance, which was similar to American vaudeville. The Beatles never performed it live.

1. A bird
   A prank
2. A form of exercise
   A musical instrument

John Lennon wrote "Cry Baby Cry" as a sort of adult nursery rhyme. It features the King of Marigold, the Queen and the Duchess of Kircaldy having a seance, and the children playing a trick on them.

1. A truck
   A satchel
2. A mustache
   A handkerchief

The British use the word "lorry" to describe a truck that carries cargo. "You Never Give Me Your Money" describes the Beatles' troubles while recording "Abbey Road" and is part of a medley.

1. Hilarious
   Cryptic
2. Commanding
   Offensive

Mr. Mustard's sister was at first named Shirley, but the Beatles changed it to Pam to better connect it to the next song in the medley, "Polythene Pam." Lennon was inspired by a story he'd read about a miser.

1. To glow
   To hide
2. To shake
   To laugh

The Beatles performed "Dig a Pony" at a rooftop concert on January 30, 1969, and this version appeared on the "Let It Be" album. Lennon was later critical of the song and its nonsense lyrics.

1. Stamp collections
   Problem-solving skills
2. Chances of moving up
   Driving records

"Drive My Car" opened the 1965 album "Rubber Soul." Lennon and McCartney struggled with the lyrics until they came up with the chorus, at which point the song came together.

1. Butter
   Cream
2. Pickles
   Jelly

Lennon was frequently critical of his songs years after they were recorded. In a 1980 interview, he expressed a wish to re-record "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds" and other songs of that period.

1. Calming
   Confusing
2. Loud
   Whispering

McCartney wrote "I'm Looking Through You," "We Can Work It Out" and "You Won't See Me" in response to arguments he had with his then-girlfriend, Jane Asher. They broke up in 1968.

1. Wander
   Ponder
2. Forget
   Tumble

Lennon used a Sanskrit phrase in the chorus, "Jai guru deva om," which means "Victory to God divine." He was inspired by a visit with Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, a guru who taught him meditation.

1. A woman
   A song
2. A secret
   A child

McCartney wrote "Blackbird" as a message of hope to people in the United States struggling through the civil rights movement. The blackbird was an apt symbol because it can fly to freedom.
