The Beatles I Am The Walrus ( Magical Mystery Tour)
The Beatles Magical Mystery Tour I Am the Walrus is a 1967 song by the Beatles, written by John Lennon and credited to LennonMcCartney. The song was featured in the Beatles 1967 television film, as a track on the associated double EP Magical Mystery Tour and its American counterpart LP, and was the bside to the number 1 hit single Hello, Since the single and the double EP held at one time in December 1967 the top two slots on the British singles chart, the song had the distinction of being at number 1 and number 2 simultaneously. Lennon received a letter from a pupil at Quarry Bank High School, which he had attended. The writer mentioned that the English master was making his class analyse Beatles lyrics (Lennon wrote an answer, dated 1 September 1967, which was auctioned by Christie s of London in 1992). Lennon, amused that a teacher was putting so much effort into understanding the Beatles lyrics, wrote the most confusing lyrics he could.
