JG: "Ladies and gentlemen, from the Beatles-- John Lennon and Paul McCartney!"
(excited screams and applause as they walk out)
JG: "Good evening, good evening. Can I ask you something? How did you get here? Not from
England, but from the hotel with all the people out there?"
JOHN: "Uhh, car."
JG: "Car. Did you have any problems?"
JOHN: "No, no. All under control. (jokingly) Well how are you, Johnny?"
JG: "Well, I figure you've been interviewed all day-- if there's any questions you'd like
to ask us..."
JOHN: "What are you doing?"
(laughter)
PAUL: "Mmm, where's Johnny?"
JG: "Where is he? Gaithersburg!"
ED McMAHON: "Gaithersburg!"
JG: "A wonderful town."
TB: "May I ask you, a big favorite all over the world, a question? Are the other two gentlemen...
of the four of you... are they still in India?"
JOHN: "No, they're in England."
TB: "I want to ask you something, because I wish I'd learned to meditate, and I can't...
I don't know how you do it. I would love to."
JOHN: "Well you gotta go and find out, haven't you."
TB: "Well I'm not going that far."
JOHN: "Oh well."
(laughter)
PAUL: "Forget it."
TB: "If it's taken me this long, and couldn't do it, I couldn't learn there."
JOHN: "Well, you can't learn to swim if you keep inland, can you? Unless you've got a
pool around you."
TB: "Oh honey, I can float sitting up. Don't be silly."
(laughter)
JG: "I get the feeling there are two different conversations here!"
PAUL: "Yeah right, yeah. We had a bit of trouble today-- this fella-- We did an interview for
the educational program. And he started asking us questions, and they were quite sort of
serious questions, you know. So it was a choice between just laughing it up, or answering
seriously."
JG: "So what did you do?"
PAUL: "We were a bit serious."
JG: (jokingly) "You? Serious?"
PAUL: "Yeah. We were just sort of-- (clears throat comically) --not too serious, you know,
just sort of."
JG: "Listen, of all the..."
PAUL: "So tell us a joke!"
(laughter)
JG: "I don't really have that many jokes, you tell me
a joke."
JOHN: "We don't know any."
TB: "I think they're very serious fellows."
PAUL: "That's it. We are, you know."
JOHN: "We can never remember 'em, you see."
JG: "Would you like to be a comedian?"
JOHN: "No."
JG: "In many ways you are."
JOHN: "Well..."
(laughter)
JG: "The four of you, socially, are you that close, or are you...?"
PAUL: "Yeah."
JOHN: "We're close friends, you know."
JG: "Sometimes when you work together-- I've been with groups that when the job's over,
that's it. Do you have houses pretty much together?"
JOHN: "Within twenty miles all together."
JG: "If you couldn't have been in music-- if it hadn't happened for you-- what do you think you would
like to do?"
JOHN: "Ahh, I don't know. Films for me."
(Paul relaxes back comfortably)
JG: (pause) "How about you, Paul... I'm not breaking your mood, am I?"
PAUL: "No. You're doing great, you know. But, umm..."
(laughter)
PAUL: "So, what would I like to have been?"
JOHN: "A policeman."
PAUL: (to John) "...no. Not a policeman."
(laughter)
PAUL: "Uhh, I don't know, you know. I was nearly gonna be a teacher but that fell through,
luckily."
(music swells for a commercial break... Paul begins humming along... girls scream)
JG: (to John) "Why don't you read that (cue card) and see what the reaction is."
JOHN: "And now a word from your local stallion."
(laughter)
JG: "...a word from your local STATION!"
--(commercial break)-- JG: "Listen. Paul, you said something that's
hard for me to believe. You were in Central Park, and no one recognized you, Sunday?"
PAUL: "Yes, that's true. Yes."
JOHN: "We were very pleased, you know."
JG: "You just kinda wandered around? You just walked around? The police weren't with you?"
JOHN: "No, we just walked out, you know. We often do it. If people don't know-- expect
us, what are they gonna do but see a bit of long hair walking around like all the other
long hair."
(laughter)
JG: "How long have you been in New York now? We just found out about it."
PAUL: "Three days."
JOHN: "Is it three, now?"
PAUL: "Three days."
JOHN: "And we still haven't got a tan."
PAUL: "And it's been enough, you know, actually." (laughs)
JG: "When you get into a city-- You were on tour, and you got to alot of cities. How much
of it do you really see? It's ballpark to a hotel, I think."
JOHN: "You just pick up the vibrations. We never saw it, you know."
PAUL: "The room."
JOHN: "A castle full of rooms all over the place."
JG: "How about this new organization, 'Apple'?"
JOHN: "Oh yeah. Well you see, our accountant came up and said, 'We got this amount of money.
Do you want to give it to the government or do something with it?' So we thought..."
JG: "Which government?"
JOHN: "Oh... Any old government."
(laughter)
JOHN: "So we decided to play businessmen for a bit, because, uhh, we've got to run our
own affairs now. So, we've got this thing called 'Apple' which is going to be records,
films, and electronics-- which all tie-up. And to make a sort of an umbrella so people
who want to make films about... grass... don't have to go on their knees in an office, you
know, begging for a break. We'll try and do it like that. That's the idea. I mean, we'll
find out what happens, but that's what we're trying to do."
PAUL: "If you want to do something, normally you've got to go to big business and you've
gotta go to 'them,' the big people, you know."
JOHN: "You don't even get there. Because you can't get through the door 'cuz of the color
of your shoes."
PAUL: (laughs) "But you know, people are normally... Big companies are so big that if you're little
and good it takes you like 60 years to make it. And so people miss out on these little
good people."
JOHN: "It just takes 'em longer."
PAUL: "So we're trying to find a few."
JG: "Paul, is that because of your background? You came from a poor background."
JOHN: "No, it's no sort of... it's just a common thing."
PAUL: "There's a little bit of that."
JG: "If you didn't feel it as a youngster, you wouldn't feel it now."
JOHN: "Yeah."
PAUL: "Yeah that's right, you know. It's just 'cuz, we know what we had to fight to, sort
of..."
JG: "Was it tough for you to get started?"
JOHN: "Well, no tougher than anybody else, you see, but George said, 'I'm sick of being
told to keep out of the park.' That's what it's about, you know. We're trying to make
a park for people to come in and do what they want."
PAUL: (comical voice) "Symbolically speaking."
(laughter)
JG: "Is he the spokesman, would you say, John?"
JOHN: "Well, if his spokes are working, he is. And if mine are..."
(laughter)
JG: "Do you have the privacy that you're leading me to believe you have, or is it a tough job?"
JOHN: "We have enough to keep us sane, you know. If we are sane-- we have enough."
(laughter)
JOHN: "But it's not like touring. Our life isn't like a tour, or like 'A Hard Day's Night'
or any of those things. That's only what we're doing now. We create that, or that is created.
But when we're just living, it's calm."
JG: "Is it calm, Paul?"
PAUL: "Yeah. Not at the moment, you know. It's hectic-- New York. Very hectic place.
'Cuz we came over from England and it's a very sort of quiet place, you know."
JG: "What's so different about New York?"
JOHN: "Louder."
PAUL: "It's very... (imitates cars honking and police sirens) ...you know."
(laughter)
JG: (jokingly) "You've got a hit record on your hands already!"
PAUL: "You know, that happens alot here."
JG: "Don't you like that kind of life?"
JOHN: "It's alright. You get into it. I mean, three days isn't enough to get used to that."
JG: "Would you 'like' to get into it?"
JOHN: "Ahh, not today."
TB: (laughs) "Are you nervous on a show like this?"
PAUL: "Always nervous."
JOHN: "Yeah, sure. Sure."
JG: "Why would you be nervous?"
JOHN: "Because, uhh... It's not natural."
(laughter)
JG: "I don't know, I'm just kind of visiting with you... I would feel it's natural. I feel
like I've read about you and I want to meet you."
JOHN: "I mean, this 'situation' isn't natural."
PAUL: "If we meet you and talk at your house, then that's alright you know, because we can
actually talk naturally. It's a bit difficult when you know you're going out into a million
homes."
JG: "So you're guarded, pretty well, in what you say then?"
JOHN: "No, not guarded."
PAUL: "No, but it's still difficult, you know. (gesturing to the camera crew) There it is!!
Look!! It's going out!!!"
(laughter)
JOHN: "Well, aren't you nervous at all?"
JG: "I am nervous because of the... uhh..."
JOHN: (comically) "Well, because-- because-- because!!! But it's the same thing!"
(laughter)
JG: "Except that you are very successful in what you do."
JOHN: "It doesn't make any difference."
JG: "So what you're telling me is that you have fears and anxieties like everybody else?"
JOHN: "Sure! We're human, man!"
PAUL: "You know that old showbiz thing everybody says, 'Well, you know, you always get nervous
before you go on the stage.' Uhh, I think we get 'em all the way. When you go on stage
it's just one of those things."
JG: "But you get over that alright."
JOHN: "Oh sure. It's part of the game."
--(commercial break)-- JG: "Listen now, I have something in common
with both of you. I met the guru, the Maharishi. And I noticed that he went out with an act--
the Beach Boys. And it folded."
JOHN: "Yeah. Right."
JG: "What do you think of the Yogi as an act?"
JOHN: "Yeah. Well, we found out that we made a mistake there."
PAUL: "We tried to persuade him against that, you know. I thought it was a terrible idea."
JOHN: "We believe in meditation, but not the Maharishi and his scene. But that's a personal
mistake we made in public."
JG: "When did you find out it was a mistake?"
JOHN: "Well, uhh, I can't remember the date, you know, but it was in India. And meditation
is good, and it does what they say. It's like exercise or cleaning your teeth, you know.
It works, but uhh, we've finished with that bit."
ED McMAHON: "Has he changed? Is that what..."
JOHN: "Well, no. I think it's just that we're seeing him a bit more in perspective, you
know, 'cuz we're as naive as the next person about alot of things."
PAUL: "We get carried away with things like that, though. I mean, we thought he was...
uhh... magic, you know-- just floating around and everything. Flying."
JG: "Do you think the kids in America have turned him off?"
JOHN: "Well, it could be something to do with it. But I wouldn't say, 'Don't meditate' to
them, because alot of them would get a great deal from it."
PAUL: "You know, the system is more important than all those things."
JOHN: "He's surrounded with, it seems like, the old establishment that we know so well."
JG: "Are you saying, 'Meditate, but not with the Yogi'?"
PAUL: (long pause) "Yeah. I mean, he's good. There's nothing wrong with him. But we think
the system is more important than all the two-bit personality bit. You know, he gets
sort of treated like a big star. He's on the road with the Beach Boys, and it's all that
scene. And also... It folds, you know. That's the silly thing."
(laughter)
TB: "Does he giggle as much as..."
JOHN: "Yes. It's his natural asset."
(laughter)
JOHN: "Well, you see, it depends on what way you're looking at it at the time. If it's
not getting on your nerves, it's 'Oh, what a happy fellow.' It depends how you feel when
you look at him."
JG: "I had him on the show, and he just giggled and giggled the whole time. I figured there
was something, maybe my tie was loose. Who was the first one that met the Yogi?"
JOHN: "We all met him at the same time."
JG: "Can you tell us the circumstances?"
JOHN: "Well, he was just doing a lecture in London at the Hilton. So we all went and we
thought, 'What a nice man.' And we were looking for that. You know, everybody's looking for
it, but we were looking for it 'that day' as well. And then we met him and he was good,
you know. He's got a good thing in him. And we went along with it."
JG: "But now, you just got off the train, huh?"
JOHN: "Right. Nice trip thank you very much."
(laughter)
JG: "Do you think that your own careers have kind of switched? Not that you lose a group,
but you seem to be changing your audience."
JOHN: "See, everything changes. So we change as well. And our audience changes, too, all
the time. We don't sort of put our finger on 'What age group or why.' But we know--
everything changes, and us too."
PAUL: "When we first started we had leather jackets on, you know. Little caps and big
cowboy boots. But then we changed to suits, you know."
JOHN: "We thought, 'That'll get 'em.'"
(laughter)
PAUL: "And we lost a whole lot of fans. They all said, 'You've gone ponched.' They didn't
like it, you know, because we were all clean."
(laughter)
PAUL: "So we lost that crowd, but we gained all the ones that liked suits. It happens
like that. That's what keeps happening. And we lost alot of people with 'Sgt Pepper,'
but I think we gained more."
(crowd applauds in agreement)
JG: "Do you think you're going to be able to top 'Sgt. Pepper'?"
JOHN: "Well, you know, it's the next move, and I can't say 'yes or no,' but I think so.
Why not? 'Cuz it's only another LP really... it's not that important."
JG: "Well, you have to be the most imitated group."
JOHN: "Well maybe. Yeah."
(laughter)
JG: "When you talk about Lennon/McCartney songs, do you work together, or one writes
one, or..."
JOHN: "It's all those combinations you can think of. Every combination of two people
writing a song... inasmuch as we can both write them completely separately, and together,
and not together. But we obviously influence each other, like groups and people do."
JG: "I can think of my favorite-- 'Yesterday.'"
(crowd applauds)
JG: "What are the circumstances behind that, Paul? How does that happen?"
PAUL: "I don't know. I woke up one morning..."
JOHN: (singing as blues) "'I Woke Up One Morning...'"
(laughter)
PAUL: (pauses, then continues, rhythmically) "'Piano By My Bed...'"
JOHN: (sings blues lick) "'duh-dut duh dut-a-la-dut!'"
(laughter)
PAUL: "'Went To The Piano...'"
JOHN: "Yeah?"
PAUL: (rhythmically) "And This- Is What- I Said!'"
(laughter)
PAUL: "You know, I just started playing it and this tune came. 'Cuz that's what happens.
They just, sort of-- they COME, you know. It just came and I couldn't think of any words
to it, so originally it was just, 'Scrambled Egg.' It was called 'Scrambled Egg' for a
couple of months..."
(laughter)
PAUL: "...until I thought of 'Yesterday.' And that's it."
JG: (pause) "Are you putting me on?"
PAUL: "No, that's true."
JG: "'Scrambled Eggs'? You write a song about scrambled eggs?"
PAUL: "True story."
JOHN: "'Scrambled Egg' was over here as an instrumental first."
PAUL: "That's true, you know."
JOHN: "Didn't do so well with that title, you know."
(laughter)
JG: "How long are you gonna stay here?"
JOHN: "Uhh, It could be any minute now."
(laughter)
JG: "I know we've probably kept you out here longer than we should have, but I'm going
to take a..."
(members of audience groan, realizing the interview is almost over)
JG: "I have a reverse question I'm going to ask you, and feel free not to answer it. What
is the one question that bugs you the most. About your hair?"
JOHN: "No. We're past being bugged by questions, unless they're very personal. I mean, you
just get normal human reactions to a question. You know, but there used to be one about,
'What are you going to do when the bubble bursts?' and we thought we'd have hysterics
because somebody always asked it."
JG: "Let's go down the list of the questions. What are you going to do when the bubble bursts?"
JOHN: "I haven't a clue, you know. I'm still looking for the bubble."
(laughter)
JG: (to Paul) "I've heard you on interviews, you have fun with reporters! You stay right
with him."
PAUL: "No, no. I'm serious. Serious."
JG: "You are? I think you're the kind of a guy that would say, 'Here's a match-- I wonder
how much gas is in the tank.' Would you be that kind of a guy?"
PAUL: "Yeah, sure."
(laughter)
JG: "Paul, John, I know that you've got a busy, busy schedule."
(groans from the audience)
JOHN: (comically, to the crowd) "That's the way it goes, folks!"
(laughter)
JG: "We have to say goodbye. Does that make you sad to have to leave me, John?"
JOHN: "All goodbyes are sad aren't they, Joe."
JG: "Why don't you write a song. Call it, 'Say Goodbye To Joe.'"
JOHN: "'Goodbye Joe. See You In The Morning.' ...oh, that's some other line."
(laughter)
JG: "Paul, you got any ideas?"
PAUL: "Uhh... no... Joe..."
(laughter)
PAUL: "Ok, umm... No, I can't think of a song."
JG: "When you get home and you start to write 'Scrambled Eggs Number Two' will you think
about me?"
PAUL: "OK."
JOHN: "And I'll join you somehow."
JG: "Thank you very much."
(applause and screams)
