Une des chansons les plus hallucinées des Beatles, « I’m the walrus » doit toute sa pêche indémodable à la voix hors du commun de John Lennon. Le clip d’époque, par contre, a vieilli de façon vraiment TRES désuète mais c’est encore plus drôle comme ça.

I am he as you are he as you are me
and we are all together.
See how they run like pigs from a gun, see how they fly.
I’m crying.

Sitting on a cornflake, waiting for the van to come.
Corporation t-shirt, stupid bloody Tuesday.
Man, you been a naughty boy, you let your face grow long.
I am the eggman (woo), they are the eggmen (woo),
I am the walrus,
Coo coo, kachoo.

Mister City P’liceman sitting
Pretty little policemen in a row.
See how they fly like Lucy in the Sky, see how they run.
I’m crying.
I’m cry, I’m crying, I’m cry.

Yellow matter custard, dripping from a dead dog’s eye.
Crabalocker fishwife, pornographic priestess,
Boy, you been a naughty girl and you let your knickers down.
I am the eggman (woo), they are the eggmen (woo),
I am the walrus,
Goo-goo-goo-jub

Sitting in an English garden waiting for the sun.
If the sun don’t come, you get a tan from
Standing in the English rain.
I am the eggman, they are the eggmen, I am the walrus,
Goo-goo-goo-jub ga goo-goo-goo-jub

Expert texpert choking smokers,
Don’t you think the joker laughs at you?
(ho ho ho, he he he, ha ha ha)
See how they smile like pigs in a sty, see how they snide.
I’m crying

Semolina Pilchard, climbing up the Eiffel Tower.
Elementary penguin singing Hare Krishna.
Man, you should have seen them
kicking Edgar Allan Poe.
I am the eggman, they are the eggmen,
I am the walrus,
Goo-goo-goo-jub ga goo-goo-goo-jub
Juba juba juba, juba, juba, juba, juba,
juba, juba juba. Juba juba…..
