Amazing song! Perfectly put together, especially at the spot where he delivers that first "we believe that we can't be wrong." It's definitely an American-style love song...the lyrics and even the title caught me by surprise coming from Paul. A great idea and a great song.
The line "we believe that we can't be wrong" doesn't sound like it would be aimed at John, though. It's a response to the earlier line "making love is wrong." But they're in the back seat and believe that they can't be wrong.
Also, as far as communicating through songs...even John would later say that "How Do You Sleep" was more about himself than it was Paul. You can see this in the "so Sgt. Pepper took you by surprise?" line. Paul certainly wasn't surprised by Sgt. Pepper- it was his concept. No question that it was probably mostly written out of spite for Paul, though.

Agree on that. "We believe that we can't be wrong" makes more sense (and suits better) as part of the story than just an unrelated jab at Lennon.
