«The fool on the hill» es una canción de los Beatles, compuesta e interpretada por Paul McCartney, aunque acreditada Lennon/McCartney. Está incluida en el álbum de 1967 Magical Mystery Tour y en la película Magical Mystery Tour de ese mismo año, con tomas grabadas cerca de Niza, Francia, los días 30 y 31 de octubre.
"Fool on the Hill" era mía y creo que la escribí por alguien como el Maharishi. Sus detractores lo llamaban "tonto" (fool). No era tomado en serio por su risita tonta... Yo estaba al piano en casa de mi padre en Liverpool tocando un acorde de Re sexta y compuse "The Fool on the Hill". Después, en una sesión de grabación de "With a Little Help from My Friends", McCartney la tocó para John Lennon, y éste le dijo que la escribiera. Paul no lo hizo, estaba seguro de que no la olvidaría.En una entrevista para Playboy en 1980, Lennon dijo: "Es Paul. Otra buena letra. Demuestra que es capaz de escribir canciones completas."
Day after day Alone on a hill The man with the foolish grin is keeping perfectly still But nobody wants to know him They can see that he's just a fool And he never gives an answer But the fool on the hill Sees the sun going down And the eyes in his head See the world spinning 'round Well on the way Head in a cloud The man of a thousand voices Talking perfectly loud But nobody ever hears him Or the sound he appears to make And he never seems to notice But the fool on the hill Sees the sun going down And the eyes in his head See the world spinning 'round And nobody seems to like him They can tell what he wants to do And he never shows his feelings But the fool on the hill Sees the sun going down And the eyes in his head See the world spinning 'round Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh 'Round and 'round and 'round and 'round and round And he never listens to them He knows that they're the fools They don't like him The fool on the hill Sees the sun going down And the eyes in his head See the world spinning 'round Oh Oh

Day after day
ResponderEliminarAlone on a hill
The man with the foolish grin is keeping perfectly still
But nobody wants to know him
They can see that he's just a fool
And he never gives an answer
But the fool on the hill
Sees the sun going down
And the eyes in his head
See the world spinning 'round
Well on the way
Head in a cloud
The man of a thousand voices
Talking perfectly loud
But nobody ever hears him
Or the sound he appears to make
And he never seems to notice
But the fool on the hill
Sees the sun going down
And the eyes in his head
See the world spinning 'round
And nobody seems to like him
They can tell what he wants to do
And he never shows his feelings
But the fool on the hill
Sees the sun going down
And the eyes in his head
See the world spinning 'round
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
'Round and 'round and 'round and 'round and round
And he never listens to them
He knows that they're the fools
They don't like him
The fool on the hill
Sees the sun going down
And the eyes in his head
See the world spinning 'round
Oh
Oh
