Not “Ticket To Ride “, sorry Dr. Robert. The rider isn’t relevant to my lyric.
That’s four wrong attempts; I’ll provide the first clue after five. (Hackney’s initial guess is still the closest so far)
No (×4):

Another excellent guess there (but sadly still a wrong one 
) , LITSWHD! That’s twice now you’ve come closest to solving it…
OK, new clue: Song is from the blue (album) period, ie. recorded between 1967-70. Good luck!

Offline Yours was the last guess, Lucy; you’ll have to wait for someone else to answer before guessing again. Consecutive guesses aren’t allowed. However, “Something ” is incorrect anyways, so in this case, I’ll just allow it and move on.

Offline Could it be “Good morning, Good morning”, because of the line “People running round, it’s five o’clock”? I guess it’s a bit out context, but you said it has something to do with movement and it’s from 1967-1970.

I’ll guess once more this round: Revolution
Sorry, not “Revolution ” either; but don’t give up just yet! I’ll give another clue (a helpful one!) after the 10th wrong guess…

OK, ten unsuccessful attempts, time for a new clue: It didn’t occur to me until after choosing the image, but my lyric-phrase actually appears in *two* Beatles songs – one by John, one by Paul, both ‘blue’ period. So there are two equal possibilities for a correct answer.

Offline “stop”, which is also in the lyrics of at least two Paul songs from the 1967-70 period.

Offline Wow, I’d thought everyone had given up – I didn’t think this would be so hard! I’m gonna give another clue to narrow it down further. (“I’m So Tired ” is wrong, Richard, sorry.)
OK, the lyric that I’m thinking of is a) motion-related, b) appears in two separate 1967-70 songs; and c) new clue: is exactly four words long. Choosing either of the two songs is a winning guess…

Offline Sorry LucyHackney, that’s not it.
You may have misunderstood my last clue: I’m looking for a four-word phrase that appears in two songs; “…the station” is only two words. (Also, there’s no need to guess both of the songs)

Offline “See how they run”
I Am The Walrus (recorded September 1967) predates Lady Madonna (recorded February 1968), and they are both considerably later than the Three Blind Mice nursery rhyme (from the 19th century or possibly earlier):
Three blind mice. Three blind mice.
See how they run. See how they run.
They all ran after the farmer’s wife,
Who cut off their tails with a carving knife.
Did you ever see such a sight in your life
As three blind mice?
