Beatle's Song Meanings

Postby Punk Rooster » Sun Jan 25, 2009 11:18 am

Ok, I've always wondered how "Come Together" has never been viewed as a song with strong sexual overtones.
Beatles fans themselves seem to dismiss it as a song about drugs, or even about the group itself.

However, when one fan suggested it was about group sex, or the Japanese practice of bukkake http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bukkake & was subsequently ridiculed. I think this definatley on the money imo.

I've always wondered what "I am the Walrus" is about :? I just picture them all off their face on a cocktail of drugs thinking they were a Walrus or an eggman (whatever the f*ck that is).

I think it was John being pi$$ed off at every lyric of every song being analysed.. and decided to write a song full of the most random words he could think of.
I love 'Food and Stuff'. It's where I buy all of my food. And most of my stuff.
