A -side is a light, pop song by Paul, released just prior to the'Magical
Mystery Tour' LP in the States. B-side is the real eye opener here though.
     This is arguably one of the bands most intriguing songs with all of its
background sounds, “Lewis Carroll” type lyrics by John, and him playing the
mellotron, a still relatively new instrument at the time.
     Many “Paul is dead” clues were borne from this song as well. Towards the
end of the piece, a recording console is plugged into BBC Radio as it broadcasts
Shakespeare’s King Lear. We hear Act IV, Scene VI being recited as 12 boys
and girls chant “drop out, drop out, everybody drop out”, or “got one, got one,
everybody’s got one”, depending on who you choose to believe, as the song
fades out.
     Lennon would state years later that this was his favorite Beatle's
song because “There’s so much going on in it”.
     True Lennon brilliance! [Author's note]
