'Baby You’re a Rich Man' is paired with 'All You Need is Love'. No-one who heard this during the summer of love had any doubts about its meaning. It’s about waking up to the spirit, finding another key, mental travelling, love. Once you have found it you are rich. This is not about having money. It’s about not really needing it. For the reference to the zoo, see (for example) Edward Albee’s 'The Zoo Story', where the zoo is a symbol of a society deadened and repressed by habit. All of those negative interpretations of this song are simply voices from the zoo. Money is nothing. What would you keep in a big brown bag inside a zoo?–peanuts. But tune in, and baby, you’re a rich man! |
