The Beatles – Day Tripper Lyrics	21 years ago
I'd heard it was mainly just Paul trynna get the word 'trip' into a song, so he used it in other terms than an acid trip... after all, it's a pretty simple song for the Beatles, just 12-bar...

The Beatles – Everybody's Got Something to Hide Except Me and My Monkey Lyrics	21 years ago
Sound advice. They have fleas and everything. They might gnaw, aswell. Especially if you smell of bananas down there. So in conclusion, never hide monkeys AND bananas in your pants. But is this what the song is about? mmm maybe dont do heroin with monkeys whilst bananas are in your pants.

The Beatles – Not Guilty Lyrics	21 years ago
As far as I know, this was another of George's reflections on the Get Back/Let It Be sessions, another tongue in cheek response to the anger and disharmony between them all at the time...

The Beatles – It's All Too Much Lyrics	21 years ago
Yeah, I agree that within the confines of The Beatles, George's work always stood out, though none of their later solo work really improved upon the legacy they set down as a band. This song was just George's response to an acid trip.

The Beatles – Maggie Mae Lyrics	21 years ago
This is actually just a cover of a trad liverpool song, of which many references were made during the Get Back/Let It Be sessions. You can hear John frequently quoting trad song lines at the end and beginning of takes (Oh danny boy... etc) on both the live rooftop set and in the session tapes.
