During the war …
Actually you did make an assertion. Or someone did, anyway. I say McCartney’s lyrics are meaningless babble designed to enhance the melody of the song, others seem to think there might be a hidden meaning there.
If you can find real evidence that McCartney puts hidden layers of meaning and allusion into what looks to me and many other people like meaningless babble, show it to me.
I’m not talking about not-very-well-hidden drug references, I’m talking about an actual meaningful story or message that isn’t obvious from the first listen.
There isn’t one. If you say there is, it’s up to you to prove it, because I can’t prove a negative.
What’s wrong with that, I’d like to know.

And it’s “looking glass ties.”
Don’t expect me to start singing, “I love you, I love you.”
It took 5 years to write that response?
He types slowly.
My 2 cents for the OP anyway: When I was little I thought Uncle Albert was the ram on the album cover and they were apologizing because they had to slaughter him because they hadn’t had anything all day.
Ram across the water.
Water.
If you play “Uncle Albert” backwards it says “zombie thread…zombie thread…”
Ram across the sky.
I know McCartney says the song was about the U.S. Navy’s Adm. William “Bull” Halsey, but it might in some parallel universe be about this guy: Lionel Halsey - Wikipedia
I like “looking glass eyes” better, although it’s probably too spooky to match the rest of the lyrics.
