Surprised people still don't think it's about oral sex. If it's anything else I'm disappointed. To the "innocents" what does John mean by "You don't need me to show the way..." followed by the c'mons, and the fact that pleasing someone is so commonly used in this context?
The only lyric that doesn't fit this interpretation is the first part of the bridge. But I wouldn't think too much of it. John uses this to place a fairly clever rhyme scheme(complainin'... rain in). Something the Beatles aren't generally known for.
Anyhow, great song. Should be regarded higher than other early classics such as "I Wanna Hold Your Hand" or "She Loves You" IMO.
