stylistic breakdown of Beatles songs

Paul: there was a pretty girl and OH PLEASE LOVE ME I NEED YOU TO COMPLETELY ADORE ME

John: Oi, you think you've figured me out then m8? What d'ye reckon THIS is about then? You know bugger all!

George: we are not separate from the river of existence, only swimming against the current, futile as it is, creates that illusion

Ringo: I like duckies AND trains!

@LexYeen afaik;

* Octopus' Garden is literally the only Ringo song they ever released, they might have done others in rehearsal

* "Paperback Writer" came out of George daring Paul to write something which wasn't about a girl and it's still a please love me song

* John at least occasionally wrote songs so they'd be hard to parse.
