Cover art for The Diary of Horace Wimp lyrics by Electric Light Orchestra

I think it's somewhat inspired by Solomon Grundy (q.v.).

Definitely a very Beatles-esque tune. I've heard it compared to "Ob-La-Di," but I don't hear that. It most reminds me of "Simply Having a Wonderful Christmas Time."

@Zorro3 The end makes me think of Dear Prudence every time!!
