The song's title refers to the Beatles at their prime, when they were dubbed "The Fab Four" by the press and their every move scrutinized and "magnified." I believe George was the first to write so fondly of the Beatle's time together after their breakup. The "fuzz" was a 60's nickname for the police (in reference to their mustaches) and reminds the listener of the many drug-related mixups the Beatles had. "When grass was green" was a simpler time, before the word "grass" came to refer to Pot. "The buzz" taking them away could be another reference to their drug use, specifically acid(LSD,) and/or it could possibly refer to the deep droning sounds of the sitar, which George fell in love with during their time in India; a transforming experience personally and in their music.
