Surprised none of the comments have been about the song's (and group's) incredibly ballsy, subversive sexual overtones in the early days (this is 1964). "I've got lips that long to kiss you / And keep you satisfied Ooh" is obviously a sophisticated, sly reference to cunnilingus. At the time, the guys got it but the girls, not so much. Their early work is filled with stuff like this. It's actually pretty sexist which is why I find self-proclaimed feminists who profess such love for The Beatles so confusing and a bit odd.
