Okay. Paul's lyrics are thin. They have little or no substance. They are not about anything, just clichés strung together. John's lyrics centered around the peace movement. They were also autobiographical. He was not afraid to expose himself and his feelings.
McCartney seems to straining for a melody that does not exist. I understand that most fans prefer Paul, the "cute one" who was loathe to offend. But it was John Lennon who was the driving force behind The Beatles and the one who was the deep thinker. He was an intellectual. The Beatles stood alone in the 60s, and I bought all their records.
Lennon cannot defend himself, so I will defend him.
