Note: "[this song] was right after dylans song [...] "you
Gotta serve someone", you know - the lord, I suppose, you know.
So then he was kind of upset about that and it was a dialogue,
You know. in that sense its fun, I mean you can hear it was
Fun. he wasnt seriously against it. he showed his anger in
A way but also [...] his sense of humour." (yoko ono, 1998)
