I told you about strawberry fields
You know the place where nothing is real
Well here's another place you can go
Where everything flows.
Looking through the bent backed tulips
To see how the other half live
Looking through a glass onion.
I told you about the walrus and me-man
You know that we're as close as can be-man
Well here's another clue for you all
The walrus was Paul.
Standing on the cast iron shore-yeah
Lady Madonna trying to make ends meet-yeah
Looking through a glass onion.
I told you about the fool on the hill
I tell you man he living there still
Well here's another place you can be
Listen to me.
Fixing a hole in the ocean
Trying to make a dove-tail joint-yeah
Looking through a glass onion.
I've picked apart a few lines in this song.. kinda come up with not much, but i took the lines literally... and this is what i've found:
where everything flows... water maybe.
mythology behind the tulip: There is a mythological tale associated with the tulip, although this time the legend originated in ancient Persia rather than in Greece. Like the Greek myths, it all begins with jealousy. Farhad, a Persian youth was in love with Sharin, a beautiful young woman of the time. One day Farhad received word that Sharin was dead and was so devastated that he leapt from the nearest cliff to his death. The sad part of this story is that Sharin wasn’t dead at all. The message was sent by a jealous rival. But the ancient gods of Persia caused tulips to grow on the spot where Farhad met his end – thus giving birth to the colorful history of this beautiful bulb.
Cast iron shore: Alexander Mitchell invented the screw pile, a major improvement over the standard straight pile. With his son, he patented his cast iron screw pile design in the 1830s. By 1840 Mitchell combined his cast iron screw pile moorings with another pile construction technique and built the first screw pile lighthouse type at the mouth of the Wyre, an important harbor in Lancashire, England.
It rests upon 7 screw piles sunk into the seabed at the northern edge of North Wharf, the sandbank stretching from Fleetwood to the edge of Lune Deeps in Morecambe Bay.
just a few little tidbits.. though none of it makes sense
It's just that this song.. i think.. is filled with more than we can see!
