Yeah, but some lyrics from Paul. I've seen some story that John wan't keen on Maxwell's Silver Hammer and called it "more of Paul's granny music". I think there's some music hall influence there, but then bands like Genesis took it up. In the late 60s various bands were inventing what popular music could be.

Yes, that an Ob-Li-Di.., quite funny the reference. Neither songs do a lot for me,

The Kinks did it too with Lola. Not so different from Benny Hill's Ernie really.
