"She loves you" by The Beatles - video and lyrics

She loves you, yeah, yeah, yeah

You think you've lost your love

Well, I saw her yesterday-yi-yay

It's you she's thinking of

And she told me what to say-yi-yay

She says she loves you

And you know that can't be bad

Yes, she loves you

And you know you should be glad

She said you hurt her so

She almost lost her mind

And now she says she knows

You're not the hurting kind

She says she loves you

And you know that can't be bad

Yes, she loves you

And you know you should be glad

Oo, she loves you, yeah, yeah, yeah

She loves you, yeah, yeah, yeah

With a love like that

You know you should be glad

You know it's up to you

I think it's only fair

Pride can hurt you too

Apologize to her

Because she loves you

And you know that can't be bad

Yes, she loves you

And you know you should be glad

Oo, she loves you, yeah, yeah, yeah

She loves you, yeah, yeah, yeah

With a love like that

You know you should be glad

With a love like that

You know you should be glad

With a love like that

You know you should be glad

Yeah, yeah, yeah,

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Don't let this be my last selfie...

"Yellow submarine" by the Beatles - video and lyrics

In the town where I was born

Lived a man who sailed to sea

And he told us of his life

In the land of submarines

So we sailed up to the sun

Till we found a sea of green

And we lived beneath the waves

In our yellow submarine

We all live in a yellow submarine

Yellow submarine, yellow submarine

We all live in a yellow submarine

Yellow submarine, yellow submarine

And our friends are all aboard

Many more of them live next door

And the band begins to play

We all live in a yellow submarine

Yellow submarine, yellow submarine

We all live in a yellow submarine

Yellow submarine, yellow submarine

(Full speed ahead Mr. Boatswain, full speed ahead

Full speed ahead it is, Sergeant.

Cut the cable, drop the cable

Aye, Sir, aye

Captain, captain)

As we live a life of ease

Every one of us has all we need

Sky of blue and sea of green

In our yellow submarine

We all live in a yellow submarine

Yellow submarine, yellow submarine

We all live in a yellow submarine

Yellow submarine, yellow submarine

We all live in a yellow submarine

Yellow submarine, yellow submarine

Animals Are Not Clowns

A combined campaign from two Portuguese animal rights organisations: Ação Animal and Liga Portuguesa dos Direitos do Animal (LDPA).

“Roll up, roll up, ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls for the crack of the whip against the animal’s stinging wounds. A big round of applause for the flaming hoops, the injuries and the electric shocks. Come and see the famed number of cages and tightly binding chains allowing no escape from endless training sessions. Laugh, applaud and join in with the repetitive choreographed routines typical of depressed animals under great stress. All the fun of the circus travelling from city to city exhibiting animals as human caricatures. Clowning around that’s no fun at all.
Animal circuses, don’t be part of the show.”
