First off, if you haven't gone out and bought Plastic Ono Band, you're missing out on one of the best albums ever created. I think this songs meaning adds beautifully to the rest of the feeling to this album. To me, it's about how when you were young everything seemed to work out in the end. Now you're grown up and there is no reason for it still not to be alright. When you were young, you saw adults playing a huge game, and to you it seemed like they worried for nothing. It's also an encouragement to not let the game hold you back... Lennon is actually speaking to us about something he'd like us all to know, as opposed to most of the other songs on this album which is him releasing his feelings.
