Line 20:
And she did it just to spite John for writing Revolution #9. Then she went on to kill him later (see below).
 
=== As stated on thebeatleseverbrokeup.com, there is an alternate universe where The Beatles never broke up—but what the author of the website brought back with him was a sequel to that universe's equivalent of ''LOVE'' ===.
In that universe, The Beatles never broke up, but they still wrote many of the songs we know from solo albums, which were released as Beatles songs instead. They also had put out a remix album similar to ''LOVE'', but with much more radical changes to the music. Then they put out a sequel focusing on the later material.
 
Line 85:
{{quote|"I am the eggman. I am the eggman, I am the walrus. (Goo goo g'joob.)" }}
 
It seems to list multiple things that a person is ("[[A God Am I|I am god!]] [[ThisPunctuated! IsFor! SpartaEmphasis!|I AM GOD!]] I Am The Ruler Of All Things!), rather than multiple beings. The walrus ate the penguin that laid the egg that is humanity ("I am the eggman, they are the eggman")- an egg created in god's image but immeasureably less complex. Then the "egg-man" rises as a walrus to overthrow the penguin. ("I am human. I am human- yet I am greater than god!" A stealth Bigger Than Jesus.) Humans are now as the yellow matter custard dripping from a dead dog's eye- meaningless filth in comparison to the narrator's godhood. The elementary penguin singing Hare Krishna and pornographic priestess bits are saying, "Worship me! And if you're a hot female, worship me naked! You, god, are lower than me, so sing my praises!" The Joker is a reference to both a deck of cards, and how the most worthless card in the deck, a pitiful mortal, is now one of the greatest beings in existence, unfathomable to those who play, let alone the other cards- the Jokers from ''[[The Dark Side of the Sun]]''. The first line is about [[Instrumentality]], and the second (see how they run, ''et al''.) is the other mortals refusing to join him in ascendance. The first verse (sitting on a cornflake/corporation t-shirts to See how they run/I'm cryin') is the narrator's interpretation of a protest as being a service held in his honor, then trying to fight off the puny mortal police and his delusion of "scaring them off". The last verse until the end of the song is fading into deeper and deeper disconnection from reality, why it seems to get so much creepier and mixed up with radio broadcasts at the end.
* Joke's on you, bub. Lennon said he wrote that song as a sort of prank for the express purpose of creating [[Wild Mass Guessing]]. An early case of [[The Walrus Was Paul]] before they did it again in the [[Trope Namer]], "Glass Onion".
** That's what he ''wanted'' the squares to think. John was prone to [[Flip-Flop of God|flip-flops of God.]]
Line 169:
The "newspaper taxis" aren't black-and-white cabs in the old/British sense; they're black-and-white cabs in the "[[Police Procedural|like a cab, but black and white]]" sense. The train station is the admittance block, and Lucy is a fellow inmate or a member of the collection crew.
 
The descriptions from earlier may be indecipherable delusion, but there's a distinct chance that the narrator's hypothetical "yourself" has a psychotic break near a park (one with [[Real Life/:Category:Nightmare Fuel|the little bouncy animals on springs]] or (if the river was metaphorical or paint on the floor, but the cellophane flowers weren't) a big fancy toy store.
 
=== ''[[The Beatles|Octopus's Garden]]'' is about a [[Starfish Alien]]. ===
Line 235:
By the time we see him again in "Sun King," though, the Walrus has come a lot closer. Having finally subjugated most of the world into his [[Hive Mind]], he has renamed himself "The Sun King" after [[wikipedia:Louis XIV of France|another famous absolute ruler]]. (Let's say this guy was also a pretty big history buff.) The song tells the story of yet another victim as he is ambushed by the Sun King and his legions of mindless slaves—He states "Here come the Sun King" (specifically using the plural form of "comes"—come on, listen to the song and tell me if you hear an 's') in reference to his attackers all sharing the same [[Hive Mind]]. Unable and even unwilling to resist the now absurdly powerful Sun King, the protagonist slips into a state of euphoria as his mind is assimilated, explaining the song's [[Soundtrack Dissonance|completely happy]] (if surreal) tone and lines such as "Everybody's laughing / Everybody's happy" (refering to the mindless docility of the Sun King's followers) -- None of the vague desperation of "I Am the Walrus" remains. As the protagonist loses his coherence and feels his mind being pooled into those of the world-spanning army around him, he slips into the native languages of his fellow victims, spouting several multilingual nonsense words.
 
And one of these phrases is "[httphttps://webcacheweb.googleusercontentarchive.comorg/search?q=cache:mBzPmZhM210Jweb/20130202005244/http://www.beatlesinterviews.org/dba11road.html+%22beatlesinterviews.org%22+%22Abbey+Road%22+%22chicka+ferdy%22&cd=1&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=us&source=www.google.com chicka ferdy]," a contribution from the protagonist himself that he recalled from his childhood in Liverpool as his dying thought. Yes, with this final breath, [[Paul McCartney]] slipped from the conscious world and died, his mind completely and utterly inhabited by that of the Sun King/the Walrus, [[John Lennon]]. And [[The Walrus Was Paul]].
 
=== ''Here Comes The Sun'' is a father comforting his daughter [[Just Before the End]] ===
Line 366:
* Let's hope he doesn't shoot blood bullets...
** He uses his fame to draw in Paparazzi and then kill the Paparazzi to evolve further. Based on the amount of time he has been dead, a Level 4 Akuma answers to the name Paul McCartney...that is just plain [[Nightmare Fuel]].
** On further research—judging from the [[D.Gray-man]] entry in [[ReplicantKill Snatchingand Replace]]—this means that Paul McCartney ''is'' the Millenium Earl. [[Poison Oak Epileptic Trees|Yikes!]]
** Or Paul grieved for someone and then the Earl appeared to him. Paul called out the name. Thus, Paul = Akuma. Just to add to the fiendish machinations, in one of the Beatles songs with a mysterious ending, the part at the end sounds eerily like Road Kamelot's song. So Paul is an Akuma and his manager is Road in disguise.
 
Line 373:
** It kinda makes sense. Maybe he changed because he was spending his time making psychic children... Great, now we all need [[Brain Bleach]].
 
=== Alternatively, Paul is dead, but [[Fullmetal Alchemist|Van Hohenheim]] was such a fan that he decided to look like Paul ===
 
=== Or...Paul is dead, but was brought back to life by a [[Green Lantern|Black Lantern Ring.]] ===
Line 521:
** [[The Beatles]] themselves attempted to reveal it through ''Revolver'', ''[[Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band|Sgt Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band]]'', ''[[Magical Mystery Tour]]'' and ''[[Yellow Submarine]]'', but the [[Muggles]] [[What Do You Mean It Wasn't Made on Drugs?|didn't get the message]].
