The walrus was Paul

As a rule, I try not to get involved in Lennon vs. McCartney debates. Arguing about the Beatles' catalog is like arguing about the periodic table. But solo albums are another matter completely, and as far as Songblague is concerned, Band on the Run is clear evidence of Paul's superior post-Beatles work. And the next time someone tries to lay some crap on you about John being the more "experimental" one, just point them in the direction of McCartney II, if only for the pure weirdness of this one.

Here's another tune from that record. I like to think this is what Paul's dreams sound like. I also like to think that he wakes up every morning with that facial expression he's wearing on the album cover.
