Back then, there was suspicion about the lyrics to some popular songs. Drug references mainly. So one local radio station offered to send the lyrics to concerned parents. A friend of mine got a copy of these songs. They were nicely printed up. Probably would be a nice collectible today.

the ending of strawberry field you can hear something..... is it "cranberry sauce" or "Paul is dead" I remember that. and supposedly you'd hear more messages if you played it backwards.

I guess that was fake news and conspiracy theories back in 1967.
