No he is taking the p1ss because you can barely get a tan in England.
Yes it means he was being sarcastic. Sorry i thought people knew what that meant automatically!
at the time I think britain had high pollution from it's factories. it does rain like seattle there and that's what john may have been reffering too.
koo-koo-cahoo!!:-)
what do they mean by 'semolina pilchard climbing up the eifel tower' i think its just a fun nonsence song ...reminds me of edward lear
goo goo ga jube,,i think it was more of the scathing of daily being,, learning more each day kinda thing, good or bad is up to the beholder
Us English people are really concious about our sh1tty weather, and he's taking the p1ss cuz getting a tan in England is impossible.
They were flying on acid when they wrote this - who knows what they're trying to say.
um, no offense but does ANY of the song make sense? it's rambling that may very well be symbolic but sounds like someone on drugs....if you understand any of the song then perhaps that lyric does mean english rain is dirty...but then what does this mean? :
Semolina Pilchard, climbing up the Eiffel Tower.
Elementary penguin singing Hare Krishna.
Man, you should have seen them kicking Edgar Allan Poe.
I am the eggman, they are the eggmen, I am the walrus...
the song is nonsense.
The walrus was written pretty much the same way lucy in the sky with diamonds which abbreviated is LSD and in that point of their lives i think they were actually on lsd most of the time so thats were the make no sense songs come from
Sitting on a cornflake
waiting for the band to come =defo LSD but as a fellow liverpudlian i love the Beatles no matter what
i just think its one of those crazy nonsensical songs thats really cool... oh and by the way lucy in the scky with diamonds was inspired by his kids drawing NOT LSD as most people think...
