I believe Lennon intended this song to mock the British blues scene. Thus the somewhat facetious title "Yer Blues". I find that this seems particularly true by how exaggerated the suicidal feeling is in the song. Plus, it seems that Lennon included the line, "Even hate my rock and rock", for some irony. Either way, the song comes across quite powerfully. One of my favorites from the White Album.

yea that's what I thought after hearing this a few times. The "even hate my rock and roll" line supported this idea too.
