Graffiti Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
He come groovin' up slowly
He got joo joo eyeballs
He one holy rollers
He got hair down to his knee
Got to be a joker
He just do what he please
He got toe jam football
He got monkey finger
He shoot Coca Cola
He say I know you, you know me
One thing I can tell you is
You got to be free
Come together, right now
Over me
He bad production
He got walrus gumboot
He got Ono sideboard
He one spinal cracker
He got feet down below his knees
Hold you in his armchair
You can feel his disease
Come together, right now
Over me
He roller coaster
He got early warning
He got muddy water
He one Mojo filter
He say one and one and one is three
Got to be good looking
Cause he's so hard to see
Come together right now
Over me
Come together, yeah
Come together, yeah
Come together, yeah
Come together, yeah
Come together, yeah
Come together, yeah
Come together, yeah
Come together, yeah

The lyrics to "Come Together" by Graffiti are full of abstract and vivid imagery that may appear nonsensical at first glance, but actually represent a message of unity and liberation. The first stanza describes a character named "flat top" who is essentially a free spirit who refuses to conform to society's expectations. He has "joo joo eyeballs" and "hair down to his knee," both of which suggest an unconventional appearance. He also wears no shoes and has "toe jam football" and a "monkey finger," which again indicate that he doesn't adhere to societal norms. Despite his quirks, flat top is still seen as a "holy roller," which is a term for a member of a charismatic Christian group.
In the second stanza, the lyrics become more obscure. Graffiti sings about flat top having "walrus gumboot" and an "Ono sideboard," which are believed to reference Paul McCartney's pseudonym "Paul Ramon" and Yoko Ono, respectively. He is also described as a "spinal cracker," which could suggest a chiropractor or a healer of some sort. The line "he got feet down below his knees" has been interpreted as a reference to John Lennon's habit of wearing boots that made his legs appear longer than they actually were. The stanza ends with the line "You can feel his disease," which could be seen as a metaphor for the societal illness that flat top represents.
The final stanza is perhaps the most enigmatic. It mentions flat top having an "early warning," which could be interpreted as a prophetic ability. He also has a "Mojo filter," which suggests he has a way of controlling and manipulating energy. The line "Got to be good looking 'cause he's so hard to see" is a paradox that speaks to the idea of inner beauty being more important than physical appearance. The chorus repeats the message of "come together," which can be seen as a call for people to embrace their differences and unite in a common goal.
