Mr. Moonlight has John singing:
“Here I am on my knees / Begging if you please…”
While, before somebody reminds me, on the Star Club recording, he changes the line to:
“Here I am on my nose / Begging if you please…”
Which reminds me, there’s a rumour that @meanmistermustard
“Keeps a ten-bob note up his nose“.

There are probably at least a thousand distinct references to body parts in the Beatles’ body of work. Notice how quickly and bountifully answers came. Might I suggest, that the 2nd (or perhaps it tops “eyes”) most mentioned body part is “heart?” I haven’t analyzed it but it certainly seems plausible.

We are on a quest to find the answer to that question. Add body parts (other than eyes – I think we got all those – see previous page) to this thread as you think of them.

and not forgetting…….”Let’s hear it for Dennis O” Dell!!”Dennis O’ Dell was a film producer who they worked with in A Hard Days Night and John worked with in How I won the war. He gets a mention in You know my name- look up the number.
It’s probably worth mentioning that in the song Lennon says “Let’s hear it for Dennis O’Bell”.
That’s absolutely true- Just took another listen now!!!

Another view of the collection of songs with the word EYE in them.
Number of songs by album:
1. Please, Please Me = 0
2. With The Beatles = 4
3. Beatles For Sale = 0
4. A Hard Day’s Night = 2
5. Help ! = 3
6. Rubber Soul = 1
7. Revolver = 4
8. Sgt. Pepper ‘s = 1
9. Magical Mystery Tour = 4
10. White Album = 7
11. Yellow Submarine = 1
12. Abbey Road = 1
13. Let It Be = 1
14. Anthology and BBC = 6
Please, Please Me not having a song with the word eyes really surprises me.
