I give that one credit just for saying "Joan was quizzical, studied pataphysical science in the home." I'm probably the only person on this forum who even thinks about pataphysical science! I prefer real science, but every so often I like reading someone else's perverse angle.
Huh, I always thought he was saying "studied math and physical science". You are not alone; I love 'pataphysics.

I always assumed that it was a snarky euphemism for masturbation, what with the next line ("Late nights all alone with a test tube, oh, oh-oh oh").

There is little doubt that that's the case.

For No One is one of my favorites, too, but my absolute favorite Beatles song is Strawberry Fields Forever (yeah, an obvious one). Others I really enjoy include A Day in the Life, Penny Lane, and Mr. Kite. Anything from the Sgt. Pepper / Mystery Tour era.

While I know this is Wings, "Band on the Run" is one of my favorite songs, too :) Close enough for government work.

That's really difficult. But we had "When I'm 64" in our wedding reception when we cut the cake, so I'm going to say that for sentimental reasons.

If solo and side projects count, there's also George's "What Is Life." But hoo boy, that's a whole nother can of worms!

They don't count. That's a huge can of worms...
