Come Together (The version off of the John Lennon Anthology: Disc 2)

Okay. So, being the new-age Beatlemaniac that I am(I was born in 1997, FYI) I decided to anylize Beatle lyrics. Which is, of course, hard to do. But I'm not the kind of idiot who would actually try to anylize "I am the Walrus". That'd be dumb. Anyone with enough Beatle/John Lennon knowledge, or even just common sense, can figure out that that song was purposely made as a throw-off for SOMEBODY(John wrote it because his old school teacher was having is students anylize Beatles lyrics. John was amused. And he wrote the most non-sensical lyrics he could think of. It spored from three unfinished songs he was writing at the time and, in finishing it, he stated "Let the f***ers work that one out".)

Now, you see? I'm smart. I tried to figure out come together. Which isn't nearly as hard. And, even though chances are I maybe got two of these story-verses wrong, I'm not going to let that ruin my happy moment. Where I feel like I've figured out a Beatles song FINALLY.

My thinking was about the four seperate unsame verses. I like to call these "story verses". I thought that first one was about George. I wasn't sure why. The only thing it had going for it was that, in comparison to the length and width of his head, he had the longest hair at the time. So I didn't have much going for THAT theory until I got my ideas for the other three.

To me, the second was about Paul. Toe jam football is rugby or something. I don't know personally(duh), but I've heard that he's good at it. And the only other thing I got from it was "he wear no shoeshine". Which I figured actually would later indicate his appearance on the Abbey Road album cover.

It was COMPLETELY obvious to me that the third "story" was about John. "Walrus gumboot". I don't care what was said in glass onion. That's a disclaimer. But so is a line in "God" on His Anthology disc 1. I will always believe John the walrus(especially since it was freakin' HIM in the freakin' walrus costume! Come on, PAUL was the RABBIT. Do people not get that?). Yeah, so anyway "walrus gumboot" was the first line that got me. Then there was the fully undisputably obvious. "Ono sideboard". If someone couldn't get that part they're an idiot. A sideboard is 1. what hangs off the side of a tablecloth(the tablecloth is John) or 2. support. Yoko was both to John.

And the last little story was about Ringo to me. That was the case because this part states "he say 1 and 1 and 1 is 3". People thought this was about Paul being dead(which he's not). But I think it was actually about Ringo being the last, number 4, to officialy join the band. Then it says "got to be good looking 'cause it's so hard to see". I think that's about him being the drummer. He's always going to be in the back(hard to see). So he's got to be good looking, or having something to make him stand out, to get noticed.

So what does my analogy of the 60's Beatle version have to do with the 70's John version? Well, he did a remake of it on anthology. Parts of the song are, of cousre, going to be different anyway. But the verse that I always figured was about Paul was changd. You should listen to it.

It's weird how I titled it about the thing that only got two sentences into it, right? Weird.
I'll be blogging soon!
