Let's Count to 20 Using Only Beatles Lyrics

It's time to rock around the clock and count to 20 (and beyond) using only Beatles lyrics. They are:

1-2-3-4-5-6-7 You Never Give Me Your Money

1 I'll Follow the Sun
2 Norwegian Wood
3 When I'm 64
4 Everybody's Trying to Be My Baby
5 She's Leaving Home
6 Being for the Benefit of Mr. Kite
7 And Your Bird Can Sing
8 Eight Days a Week
9 One After 909 / Revolution 9
10 Mean Mr. Mustard
11 [none]
12 Cry Baby Cry

1-2-3-4 All Together Now

15 She Came in Through the Bathroom Window
16 Sweet Little Sixteen
17 I Saw Her Standing There
18 [none]
19 Taxman
20 Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band
31 Maxwell's Silver Hammer
50 The Ballad of John and Yoko
1,000 Paperback Writer
1,000,000 I'm a Loser

1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9 Kansas City

BEATLE GEEKS WHO HAVE READ THIS FAR: Of course these aren't the *only* Beatles songs that have numbers in the lyrics. In fact, there are 45 songs that have the number "one" in the lyrics, and 21 that have the number "two." Beyond that, the only fingers-and-toes numbers missing from their canon are 11, 13, 14, and 18 (unless you consider "1822!" from Live at the BBC). There are even fractions, as they sing about a "half" in 10 different songs; and four songs that mention a "million" (see if you can figure them out!)
