He was just scrambling some (green) eggs at the time.
To me, part of his unique flavor as a personality was his imbalance. Very mature in his focus on business management, but little business acumen, leading to his notorious skinflintiness; childish in his constant need for adulation; a late-teenager of the '70s in his musical fixations, and probably pretty darned jaded in his romances by 23. This is why "Yesterday" seems disingenuous to me, lyrically.
Underneath that doubled string quartet a tempest rages, but he will not admit it to himself and is terrified that the rest of us will find out.
IMO, of course.

“I say in speeches that a plausible mission of artists is to make people appreciate being alive at least a little bit. I am then asked if I know of any artists who pulled that off. I reply, 'The Beatles did.”
