Uber SHoF Song: Everybody's Got Something to Hide Except Me and My Monkey
For inclusion in the Uber SHoF... "Everybody's Got Something to Hide Except Me and My Monkey" by the Beatles
One of my favourite Beatles songs off probably my favourite album.
Most people probably think it's about drugs or is in reference to Yoko... maybe it is... but the lyrics are mostly about Transcendental Meditation. Stuff the Maharishi would say in India.
I mostly like it as it's such a raucous and fun song with loud clanging and a fast pace. Just fun to crank up and listen to.
Someone (off Wikipedia) describes it like this: "With its jangly guitar riff, repetitive lyrics and frantic bass line, this song - borne from the growing unease with Yoko Ono's presence in the studio - grows more fun with each listen."
