Basically
the Beatles lyrics speak for themselves. I was thinking "Help" could
also mean "the Help", the servants as in a turn of the century upper
class household. Think "Upstairs, Downstairs." A study of social
class structure in England, back then. I wonder if the other authors of our
group have thought of the Beatles. Some have, I bet.
