“This is Harrison saying "f-you" to John and Paul. They usually only begrudgingly allowed songs penned by him on the albums because they didn't think he was as good as either of them. Even if he wrote a song I think he only got .8% of the songwriting profits. John and Paul got 15%. "If you think the chords are wrong, they aren't, I wrote it like that." But hey, it's only a song by that Northern guy.”

Famously written by George, as a light-hearted, but still sharp protest against his songs being published by Northern Songs. This allegedly meant John & Paul would actually earn more in publishing rights than George did!!!! Originally recorded in the Sgt Pepper sessions, it was not included on that album, which didn't help George's growing disenchantment with being a Beatle!! It was finally released on the "Yellow Submarine" album. An interesting mix of instruments were used, including: George on organ, Paul on trumpet and John on piano & glockenspiel!!
