Surely this is the most embarrassing song in Macca's catalogue [that said, I'm not sure whether he was the primary composer or Denny Laine, who sings it].
Because it's not even cutesy - it sounds like the prowling paedophile in the park practising his pick-up lines. Whether the lyricist intended it or not, that's how it comes across. It's made worse by the fact that Denny sings it - his frail, George-Harrison-esque voice seems to fit the paedophile persona all too well.
