The line "We all know Ob-la-di-bla-da" refers to the song "Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da", which appears earlier on the album, but with the "sinister" overtone (as Walter Everett put it) that "life may not go on" as that song suggests.〔Walter Everett.

ISBN 0-19-512941-5. p204〕 "Savoy Truffle" is one of several Beatles songs that make specific reference to other songs recorded by the group (others include "All You Need Is Love", which refers to "She Loves You"; "I Am the Walrus", which refers to "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds"; and "Glass Onion", which refers to several other songs). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Savoy Truffle」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
