And Your Bird Can Sing - The Thesis
Tell me that you got everything you want and your bird can sing, but you donât get me
Caught up in thinking about this song that we have conflicting reports and opinions on what itâs actually about and ready to present my thoughts.
TLDR: And Your Bird Can Sing is about a cycle of torment (or cycle of abuse, but I prefer to be careful with usage of that word for various obvious reasons).
Disclaimer: It is not my intention for my take to be seen as the ultimate reading, you can agree or disagree and I will be happy to discuss!
WARNING: THIS IS GONNA BE LONG!
INSPIRATION
First person to claim they served as an inspiration for this piece is Marianne Faithful in her relationship to Mick Jagger (sorry Marianne, the song canât be inspired by you, you and Mick werenât even together when it was written - AYBCS was recorded in April 1966 and written probably earlier, Marianne and Mick got together in November 1966. That does not mean that she cannot identify with something in it though).
Then we have Cynthia who said itâs about a golden bird cage that she says she gifted to John and while this seems a bit absurd as Cynthia does not appear to match the person addressed in the song, I wouldnât be quick to disregard her as a partial inspiration for this song. I will talk about it later when applying a plausible autobiographical reading.
Thereâs also a theory that itâs actually inspired by an interview with Frank Sinatra and his criticism of The Beatles. We know that there was some sort of a rivalry going on between him and the band, a representation of a generational clash between the old world and the new. I actually like this interpretation and as Paul once said, âmost of our songs start as a newspaper articleâ. I do think that this news piece probably inspired some lines and in a way, it is also about that - you can actually view the lyrics that way - remember that a song can be about multiple things at once. But I donât think this is the ultimate reading.
More under the cut.

My insane analysis on like the most important McLennon moment ever caught on film
IN THIS ANALYSIS, I will compare the original 1969 footage of the Beatles discussing India with the edited footage of the same moment in the 2021 âThe Beatles: Get Backâ documentary.
The original footage has significant historical relevance, where Lennon makes explicit references to the Bob Wooler incident and the holiday with Epstein in Spain. Whatâs more is, he does this after Epsteinâs death. Itâs a risky thing to hint at in casual conversation, and thatâs knowing that theyâre being filmed.
In mentioning these two incidents, Lennon simultaneously alludes to an, ahem, moment between him and McCartney in India.
there are about 7 things happening here that are turning me into the joker
I just think that paul calling john darling at roughly the same time as they were starting work on oh! darling should have caused apple studios to explode
This is the first night in a long time that mclennon has made me cry, and itâs entirely because of "I Will." Thinking about how Paul has spent decades mourning John, still writing with him, still speaking to him, still feeling connected to him even after all these years. Thereâs something beautiful about the fact that Paul literally predicted this in "I Will."
An extract from 2010 podcast âAmerican Masters: LENNONYC" featuring Jack Douglas* talking about plans John and Paul had to work together on Ringoâs âStop and Smell the Rosesâ, slated to be recorded in early 1981. John also hoped that George would join them, despite being upset by [Georgeâs] biography. (source)Â
âMy understanding was that, I mean, John and Paul⌠Paul was on board with John to do this Ringo record. That was set, according to John. [âŚ] They were going to do a Ringo album, it was gonna be the next he kept talking about. âItâs gonna be the boys! Itâs gonna be the boys! Thatâs what weâre doing. Get ready to do this. Itâs gonna be the boys!â It was gonna be a Ringo album. Paul and John were writing material, a lot of it that John had written already. A lot of the material that ended on âMilk and Honeyâ. Some of it was slated to be going to Ringo**.âÂ
*Jack Douglas is an American producer who first worked with John in 1971 on âImagineâ. He also worked on âDouble Fantasyâ and was working on âMilk and Honeyâ before Lennon was murdered in 1980.Â
**Ringo allegedly didnât feel comfortable recording Johnâs songs after his death. Douglas is also the one who recently made Ringo listen to Johnâs Bermuda Tapes and the âGrow Old With Meâ demo. Ringo covered the song for his new album, âWhatâs My Nameâ, with the help of Paul (who played the bass and did some vocals). (source)

I was reading the 2nd Beatles Monthly Book (released in September 1963), and it contained an interesting account of how the Beatles got started, including John's recollection of meeting Paul.
âThere was a friend of mine called Ivan who lived at the back of my house and he went to the same school as Paul McCartneyâ The Liverpool Institute High School. It was through Ivan that I first met Paul. Seems that he knew Paul was always dickering around in music and thought that he would be a good lad to have in the group. So one day when we were playing at Woolton he brought him along. We can both remember it quite well. We've even got the date down. It was June 15th, 1955. The Quarrymen were playing on a raised platform and there was a good crowd because it was a warm sunny day.â (John Lennon)
There are a few things in this account that stand out to me.
John says they met on June 15th, 1955, something we now know isn't correct. The commonly accepted date is July 6th, 1957, at the Woolton Fete. The mistake makes me wonder whether John and Paul simply misremembered the date in 1963, or whether there may have been an earlier meeting that later became mixed together with the famous Woolton Fete story.
The way that John tells about Ivan and Paul coming to the Woolton Fete really backs up some people's claim that Paul had the intent of meeting John at the Fete, or at least that was Ivan's intent, taken that he "thought that he [Paul] would be a good lad to have in the group" and ended up bringing him along to the Woolton because of that reason.

Hi, love. I have a petition rather than a question: can you do a masterpost with all the songs John's written about Paul + Statements regarding his feelings for Paul? I'm trying to convince someone about Mclennon. If its too much work or you've done it before then I apologize. Thanks in advance.
I love your blog! â¤ď¸
Sure! Here are the songs that I think are highly likely to be about Paul, and I added links to previous posts I have made about them (there are more songs that I suspect could also be about Paul, but the evidence is a bit weaker/contradictory, or could be about Yoko or May Pang as well, and I haven't made any posts about them).

Now, regarding John's statements about Paul, that part is a bit trickier. In direct interviews, John was rarely openly affectionate or lovey-dovey about Paul in the way Paul often is when talking about John. However, he still made his fair share of suggestive comments about the two of them over the years, dating back as early as 1964. I made a compilation of some of those remarks here. But the most telling and revealing things that show how deeply John felt about Paul is by reading what people around John have said about him.
In 1968, while Yoko was observing John and Paul in the studio, she famously said that if Paul had been a woman, he "would have been a GREAT threat" because there was something "definitely very strong" between him and John. In 2008 shebtold biographer Philip Norman that John's anger towards Paul in the late 60s/early 70s was so big, and so much like the anger of an ex-spouse, that this reinforced her "suspicion that his feelings for Paul had been far more intense than the world at large ever guessed." She added that "around apple, Paul would sometimes be called John's princess," and that she had "also once heard a rehearsal tape with Johnâs voice calling out âPaul⌠Paul âŚâ in a strangely subservient, pleading way." She ended by saying, "he was just so angry at Paul that I wondered what was it really about". It absolutely didn't seem that it was just business/creative differences, but something far, far more perosnal. And the John's princess nickname is not something that Yoko just made up, there are 2 other sources that mention this, and both mentions are as early as 1969 and 1972. Yoko has said many times John was gay/bisexual (and John himself as hinted at it) and also said that John would tell her that he liked her because she looked "like a man in drag", that she "was like a mate". He also told her that he was "'riding on the boat called Paul, and now I'm going to ride on a boat called Yoko.'"
We have Harry Nilsson saying that one night John told him, "I'm just like everyone else, Harry. I fell for Paul's looks." We have John himself saying in 1968 (when talking about how he met Paul) that Paul "looked like Elvis. I dug him." He also even excitedly told this sister Julia that he thought Paul looked like Elvis (and she said she didn't agree, lol). His aunt Mimi said she would tell John that he and Paul were like "chalk and cheese", because of how different they were, and when he would hear this, John would jump around the house shouting "Chalk and cheese!" with "a stupid grin on his face." There's also the story of a guy called Tony Manero who claimed to meet John at a bar in 1974. John found him attractive and was making move son him, and looked dissapinted when Tony said he wasnt gay. People around them were saying that Tony looked like Paul, and John said, "No, he's prettier than Paulie. He's got a nicer mouth than Paulie. Paulie's got a small mouth."
We all know how he referred to Paul as his "old estranged fiancee" on stage at Madison Square Garden in 1974, but his friend Tony King said that this wasn't a one-time things, that he would say this often privately, and using similar terms. He said, "John loved Paul. No doubt about it. I remember once he said to me, âIâm the only person whoâs allowed to say things like that about Paul. I donât like it when other people do.â He didnât like if other people said nasty things about Paul. And he always referred to Paul as his estranged fiancĂŠ and things like that."
His defensiveness about Paul ("I can talk shit about him but you can't!) has also been corroborated by Alice Cooper, who said John would "take a swing" at anyone who said something bad about Paul (here's a compilation of instances of John being defensive about Paul). We also have his friend Elliot Mintz saying that John would often ask him, "What do you think Paul is thinking right now? Do you think he thinks about me at all?" Elliot said that he just gave him meager responses, like, "I'm sure he does", and only then John would move on. Elliot said, "I think his...I'm not gonna call it an obsession, but his curiosity about Paul McCartney was always prevalent." John also told Elliot that Paul had all his "attention and love" before Yoko came along. He also said this:
âWhen we sang together, Paul and I would share the same microphone. Iâd be close enough to kiss him. Back then, I didnât wear me specs onstage â Brian Epstein said they made me look old. So weâd be playing these concerts, in front of thousands of people, but the only thing I could see was Paulâs face. He was always there next to me â I could always feel his presence. Itâs what I remember most about those concerts.â
Johnâs fixation on Paul was also noted by Robert Rosen, the man who read his diaries. Rosen said he was shocked by how often Paul appeared in them. According to him, John would go on and on about Paul, and John himself wrote he couldn't get Paul out of his head. Rosen also described Johnâs writings about Paul as extremely volatile (Elliot Mintz also said John's feelings about Paul changed from minute to minute). At times they were petty, jealous, dismissive, or resentful. At other times, John would simply wonder what Paul was doing, list Paul among the three most important people in his life alongside Yoko and Sean, or even speculate that he shared a psychic connection with him.
In 1973, John and Yoko had a public argument at a party, during which, according to witnesses, John exclaimed, âI wish I was back with Paul!â We also have Johnâs friend Bob Gruen recalling that John took Paulâs Silly Love Songs very personally. Gruen said John deeply loved the song, listened to it often, and interpreted it as Paul sending him a message: âYeah, I know you think I only write silly love songs, but I love you.â According to Gruen, John specifically pointed to the repeated âI love youâ refrain as being directed at him.
Then there is Johnâs deep jealousy of Linda. In a 1971 interview, he remarked that he did not find her particularly attractive and wondered why Paul was âbothering with her,â before adding, somewhat bitterly, âAnd the next minute sheâs married him!â I would strongly recommend reading this entire excerpt from the interview, because it is remarkably revealing. When the journalist asked John about the differences between him and Paul that had contributed to their falling out, John launched into a lengthy rant about Paulâs desire for a family life. He recalled how Paul, following his dad's advice, had once considered leaving the band to get a conventional job, until John told him, âEither come or youâre out.â John then reflected: âSo he had to make a decision between me and his dad then, and in the end he chose me.â What is striking is that John immediately returns to the subject of family. He says: âBut it was always the family thing.â He then immediately talks about Linda, noting that she had given Paul exactly what he wanted: âthe complete family life.â It is an extraordinary thing to focus on, especially considering that Ringo, George, and John himself all had families by that point. One cannot help but wonder why Paulâs desire for a conventional family life seemed to bother John so much. There is also the curious timing of Johnâs marriage to Yoko (they got married just 8 days after Paul and Linda did). Upon hearing of Paulâs marriage to Linda, John became determined to marry as quickly as possible, despite the fact that both he and Yoko had previously expressed skepticism about the institution of marriage. According to Peter Brown, John urgently called him and demanded that a wedding be arranged "immediately". Peter himself said, "People believe that John's desire to get married so soon after Paul's marriage was a knee-jerk reaction. Perhaps it was psychologically about breaking up with Paul". According to Rosen, John also wrote in his diaries about wondering how Paul and Linda had managed to stay together for so long. He would sometimes contact his tarot card reader seeking reassurance that the marriage was unhappy and on the verge of collapse. In one newspaper clipping announcing Paulâs wedding to Linda, John crossed out the word âweddingâ and replaced it with âfuneral.â And the jealousy seem to be limited to Linda. One woman recalled accompanying Paul to a place where the Beatles were staying and being met with immediate hostility from John, who angrily said, âWhat is she doing here?!â She later felt that Johnâs attitude stemmed from the belief that Paul was foolish for taking a woman seriously enough to bring her to dinner when "all he had to do was fuck her after dinner." There is also the well-known story that, during the early years, Johnâunder the influence of pillsâwent into Paulâs room while Paul was in bed with a girl and proceeded to cut up the girlâs clothes and wreck the wardrobe.
Jann Wenner recalled attending a screening of Let It Be with John and Yoko. During the rooftop concert sequence, the sight of Paul singing reduced John to tears. Wenner later remembered sitting in the nearly empty theatre and watching John âcrying his eyes out.â Yoko herself later told Paul that, not long before his death, John would sometimes sit down and listen to Paulâs records. As soon as he heard Paulâs voice, he would say, âThere you are,â before going through the album and pointing out all the things he liked about it. He would then cry.
Note: So, as you can see, Yoko herself seemed convinced that John had romantic feelings for Paul, and everything else I mentioned here only reinforces that impression. That said, I don't think this material alone proves that mclennon was real, because it is drawn almost entirely from John's side of the story. What it does show, in my opinion, is a remarkably strong case that John had romantic feelings for Paul. If your friend still feels that mclennon couldn't have been real because the feelings were unlikely to have been mutual, and you'd like a compilation of Paul's side of things to give them some food for thought, just let me know haha.
happy pride to john and paul! ya'll were doing it like no one else fr
