And Your Bird Can Sing




The song itself has a Guitar sound similar to that found on the rest of '' Revolver '', and a brilliant dual-guitar intro played by Paul McCartney and George Harrison . A Byrds -like version of the song was recorded on April 20 , 1966 (Which can be found on the Beatles Anthology set and features McCartney and Lennon giggling over the take) but this was scrapped and the group recorded the album version on April 26 .

This song is often thought to be a message from John to Mick Jagger of the Rolling Stones .

The popular Beatles-influenced band The Jam covered this song as a B-side.

Lennon stated during his interview with Playboy that he thought this was the worst thing he ever wrote, excluding " Dig A Pony ."

In the Super Mario Sunshine video, Mario goes to Gelato Beach. The song is named "And Your Sand Bird Can Sing", and the lyrics change.
Here is an example:

You can't hear me/you can't spray, FLUDD
And your bird is green/and your Sand Bird is blue
See the valley/see The Wiggler
When your bird is broken/when your Sand Bird is lonely
