The song is a recommendation to be anti-intellectual, to dig life and experience and not be bookish.
Curiously as the first song of 14 songs which was originally supposed to be like a book (the cover is still), here is Paul saying that what you read is often common knowledge, key being such knowledge is common and you did not really need to read it. You get bookish, others read the same books, and u end up being common as that newspaper you throw away.
So please don't bother Paul, knocking on his mine/mind and just let him rock out. Sorta the entire Mats stupid but honest, heart on sleeve wisdom.
In fact 'What they teach you to fix, needs to be broke', people are born to break the mould an not to be moulded by their education.
