Are You The Walrus? Lyrics

Check it out I'm in line behind a Barbizon and she really looks like one, she said "Hi I'm skin" and showed a whole lot but didn't seem to have a whole lot within, I'm small talk, blah blah blah blah about the weather and all because I'd love to stand here another year winter, spring, summer, fall into pieces it pleases the eye, it's nice to know that there are problems outside of my own, I feel better, move to 10 items or less should I let her let me in front of her sure I guess, I'm close to check out she asked "are you the walrus?" I said yes without listening "Oh come on, be honest" I'm close to check out, she asked "are you the walrus?" I said yes and that's a promise "Oh come on, be honest" I have five items in the waiting asylum, take everybody's burdens let's pile them up on the counter call it a conveyor belt and as I look around I see a want to be dad using his belt on the screaming baby Oh baby, the constellation on her face said he did the same to his lady 10,000 Maniacs ask the question but it's way too late, he made a lasting impression I wish it wasn't so but I'm not supposed to impose family values you know, the sale of the century wasn't meant to be like this but how can you resist the madness, I'm so glad it's almost my turn, only one lady away from the freedom I yearn for but before you get excited she got a check to write it, I'm sorry to announce that the check is going to bounce I feel better move to 10 items or less should I let her let me in front of her sure I guess I'm at the check out, she asked "are you the walrus?" I said yes without listening "Oh come on be honest" I'm at the check out she asked "are you the walrus?" I said yes and that's a promise "O come on, be honest" Honestly, in all honesty, we are moderately moving, situation slowly is improving I find that Percy Faith on the PA is sort of soothing, collect my change and I jet yes I'm cruising Check it out Wandering around looking for my car, I'm amazed at the maze, who even knows where you are, who knows why there's a cart resting in the dent it made, another car is waiting for our places to trade, I wish it wasn't so, I wish I was in the distance and heading for home base and now the race to red lights begin when a convertible girl slows down to let me in I feel better like as if I was blessed should I let her let me in front of her sure I guess I roll down the window she asked "are you the walrus?" I said yes without listening, "Oh come on be honest" I roll down the window she asked "are you the walrus?" I said yes and that's a promise "Oh come on, be honest"

this song is really really cool, but what the hell is it about????????

Cover art for Are You The Walrus? lyrics by Furthermore

It's witty, NOT FUNNY. Is spousal abuse funny? Poverty?

The Walrus is a character in "Through the Looking Glass." He came across as a really nice guy. His kindness enticed a group of clams to follow him. When he got back to his house, he proceeded to shuck and eat the clams.

I have five items in the waiting asylum Take everybody's burdens, let's pile 'em up On the counter, call it a conveyer belt And as I look around I see a wanna-be dad using his belt On his screaming baby, a baby, oh baby The constellation on her face said he did the same to his lady Ten thousand maniacs asked the question But it's way too late, he made a lasting impression I wish it wasn't so, I wish it wasn't so But I'm not supposed to impose family values, you know The sale of the century wasn't meant to be like this But how can you resist the madness? I'm so glad it's almost my turn Only one lady away from the freedom I yearn for But before you get excited, She's gotta check the writing, I'm sorry to announce that the check is gonna bounce

Another car waiting for our places to trade I wish it wasn't so, I wish it wasn't so I wish I was in the distance and heading to home base And now the race to red lights begin When the convertible girl slows down to let me in

I feel better, better, like as if I was blessed Should I let her, let her, let me in front of her? Sure, I guess I roll down the window, she asks, "Are you the walrus?" I said "yes" without listening "Oh, come on, be honest" I roll down the window, she asks, "Are you the walrus?" I said "Yes, and that's a promise!" "Oh, come on, be honest." Be, be honest, be, be, be honest Be, be honest, be, be, be honest

this is a christian rap song (as is all their songs) about a guy in a grocery store looking around and seeing what's become of the world that god has created for us... as for the walrus reference it's part of a john lennon song "i am the walrus" where he mistook the walrus for the good guy, but really the walrus from Lewis Carroll's "Alice In Wonderland" was meant to symbolize the evils of false images... what i think she means by asking "are you the walrus" however is more of a "do you think you're perfect just cause you appear to be?"... at least the people in the grocery store show their imperfections and aren't ashamed of them. be honest, be be be honest.

Why is he the Walrus?

Cover art for Are You The Walrus? lyrics by Furthermore

I think this song is asking John Lennon if he is the walrus and The Beatles' song is their answer to this song.
