To be fair: This was 1968 and no one had ever heard contradictory lyrics like that (making MUCH more sense when stoned, Magical Mystery Tour being a psychedelic experience). The Beatles did it FIRST, including the unique instrumentation and false fadeout/fade in at the end.
Sorry, but a better example would be something by The Archies, The Monkees or David Cassidy.
I watched the doc three times! It's like every word was being pulled out of my own brain. THANK YOU for posting this.
