[a homeless-looking young man is found wandering the grounds of Lennon's Tittenhurst Park estate]
John Lennon: Don't confuse the songs with your own life. I mean, they might have relevance to your own life, you know, but a lot of things do. And so we've met, you know? I'm just a guy, man, who writes songs.
Young Man: Yeah, I figured that if we met, I'd know, you know, just by meeting you.
John Lennon: But know what, man?
Young Man: That it all fits, you know?
John Lennon: Anything fits, you know? If you're tripping off on some trip, anything fits, you know?
Young Man: Like when you said "Boy, you're gonna carry that weight for a long time."
John Lennon: That's Paul saying that. But that belongs to all of us. He's singing about all of us.
Young Man: Remember that one, um, "You can radiate everything, or you can penetrate anywhere you go"?
John Lennon: Yeah, I was just having fun with words. It was literally a nonsense song, you know? I mean, Dylan does that. Anybody does that, you know? They just take words and you stick them together and see if they have any meaning. Some of them do. Some of them don't. See, that last album of mine was me coming out of my dream. You can last your whole life on that dream, you know? And then it's all over.
Young Man: You weren't thinking of anyone in particular when you were singing all that?
John Lennon: How could I be thinking of you?
Young Man: Well, I don't know, I don't care me. But just all- it's all somebody.
John Lennon: I'm thinking about me, or at best, Yoko, if it's a love song. I'm saying, you know, "I had a good shit today" and "this is what I thought this morning" and, uh, you know?" And- or, "I love you, Yoko," or whatever. I'm singing about me and my life, you know? And if it's relevant for other people's lives, that's all right.
[pause]
John Lennon: Are you hungry? Hmm?
Young Man: [nods] Yeah.
John Lennon: Let's give him something to eat.
