Earlier today Sotheby's announced they'll be putting the handwritten lyrics for the Beatles "A Day In The Life" on the auction block. Penned by John Lennon, 1010Wins reports "the double-sided sheet of paper features Lennon's edits and corrections in his own hand—in black felt marker and blue ball point pen, with a few annotations in red ink." The lyrics include the line: "I'd love to turn you on," which got it banned by the BBC when it was released in 1967 because it was deemed a drug reference.
