YOU are the Walrus (maybe)

"Sitting in an English garden waiting for the sun,
If the sun don't come, you get a tan from
Standing in the English rain.
I am the eggman, oh, they are the eggmen -
Oh I am the walrus. K-koo cha choo"

And yes, you ARE the Walrus.

After many intensive years of research and hours of interpretative analyses and organic relational studies, I have finally decyphered the drug addled lyrics of this world reknowned Beatles tune and I can professionally confirm that the true meaning of this lyric is that we are ........

fucked. And it all relates back to Corporate America and how we never REALLY know who the eggman is.

I don't think we ever will.

One of my favorite Beatles songs.

John Lennon wrote it as if he were the Walrus that tried to save the clams that were lead to their deaths. In the story though, it was in fact the Carpenter that tried to save the clams from being eaten by the Walrus.

I love that song. Here's a more direct message from Mr. Lennon.

As soon as your born they make you feel small
by giving you no time instead of it all
Till the pain is so big you feel nothing at all
Working Class Hero is something to be
Working Class Hero is something to be

They hurt you at home and they hit you at school
They hate you if you're clever and despise a fool
Till you're so fucking crazy you can't follow their rules
Working Class Hero is something to be
Working Class Hero is something to be

When they've tortured and scared you for 20 odd years
then they expect you to pick a career
When you can't really function you're so full of fear
Working Class Hero is something to be
Working Class Hero is something to be

Keep you doped with religon, sex and T.V.
and you think you're so clever and classless and free
but you're still fucking peasents as far as I can see
Working Class Hero is something to be
Working Class Hero is something to be

There's room at the top I'm telling you still
but first you must learn how to smile as you kill
if you want to be like the folks on the hill
Working Class Hero is something to be

Yes , A Working Class Hero is something to be
If you want to be a hero well just follow me
If you want to be a hero well just follow me

(John Lennon: Working Class Hero)
