Magical Mystery Tour Lyrics

Roll up, roll up for the magical mystery tour, step right this way.
Roll up, roll up for the mystery tour.
Roll up, roll up for the mystery tour.
Roll up GOT AN INVITATION, roll up for the mystery tour.
Roll up TO MAKE A RESERVATION, roll up...

    Perhaps it's referring to their ill-fated movie of the same name, or inviting people to come on a tour? The Beatles undoubtedly used a lot of drugs, but most of their songs didn't have drug references.

    This whole cd is a trippy ass psychedelic TOUR/ride.
    This song is inviting you to listen/ get high.
    LSD!!! so much stuff you can only hear while tripping, lsd is like a microscope for their songs! -truth.

    This interpretation has been marked as poor. view anyway

    For those who like uncovering drug references in Beatles songs, I've read that "roll up" as used in this song, refers to rolling up a joint - as well as its more innocent meaning of come closer, come in as used by a carnival barker. Believe it or not.
