Probably this meant nothing, but a lyric goes, "you live with straights who think you are king, jump when your mamma tells you anything." I almost jumped myself. I thought that Paul's mother is supposed to be dead! If he is alive, I wonder what that means. Another lyric says, "all you've ever done is yesterday." Most people take it to mean the song, but I think it could mean the past, i.e. work with the Beatles. That is without someone to watch over him, Paul (or Billy) won't write at top capacity. Alas, seems to be true.  |

Alas, seems to be true. I think the ""mamma" is Linda. As far as "yesterday", it is a play on words. Of course it means the song when you consider he next references "another day" which was one of his solo works. It is a reference to the song and to time. |

And, if Sexie Sadie meant the Maharishi...........
John played loose with the nominatives........
So, if the Beatles realized the Maharishi was seducing the ladies, etc, the "sexie" part makes some sense. What do we make of the name "Sadie?" Sure, maybe just the aliteration, or a random choice, but maybe, sadism, too? A Kinky Maharishi? The nomi-natives were restless that night.............Bungalow Bill, Pablo Finque, Lewis Carroll's Walrus? Lennon's creative imagination was
deep. At least, buried under a level or two.
In what way did "Doris get herrrr oats in Part One?" Did she buy the farm?
