Offline This is one of my favourite early Beatles tracks. I’d always assumed it was a John song, because he sings it, but it’s in The Lyrics, credited Paul McCartney and John Lennon .
Warning, you can’t unread this:
At the end of the section about this song Paul says “I think it’s fair to say there might be a bit of schoolboy humour hovering around the idea too.” I am cackling.
I’ll Get You , I’ll Get You in the end

sigh butterfly, Rube, Mr. MoonlightMy hot take is that after the Beatles split they went down the paths of spiritualism, solipsism, alcoholism, and Paul McCartney

Offline Ha-ha, that reminds me of Paul’s explanation for the meaning of “4000 holes in Blackburn Lancashire”.
“They were referring to 4000 screaming girls filling up Albert Hall for a concert”.
