Given that it was written in the psychedelic 60s, most people think this Beatles song is about drugs, more specifically, LSD. The misconception is that the title is a way to hide the acronym LSD. John Lennon, however, swore that the title came from a painting his son Julian had made with the same title. “I swear to God or swear to Mao or to anybody you like, I had no idea it spelled LSD,” Lennon said.
