| “ | Another of my throwaways. | „ | 
| —John Lennon, Playboy Interviews, 1980 | ||
| “ | Me. I think Paul helped with the middle. | „ | 
| —John Lennon, Hit Parader, 1972 | ||
| “ | Another horror. | „ | 
| —John Lennon, Hit Parader, 1972 | ||
| “ | I think it was Paul and me, or maybe John and me, playing (guitars) in harmony — quite a complicated little line that goes through the middle-eight. | „ | 
| —George Harrison, Guitar Player Magazine Interview, 1987 | ||
| “ | One of my favorites on the Anthology is, 'And Your Bird Can Sing,' which is a nice song, but this take of it was one we couldn't use at the time. John and I got a fit of the giggles while we were doing the double-track. You couldn't have released it at the time. But now you can. Sounds great just hearing us lose it on a take. | „ | 
| —Paul McCartney, 1994 | ||
| “ | 'And Your Bird Can Sing' was John's song. I suspect that I helped with the verses because the songs were nearly always written without second and third verses. I seem to remember working on that middle eight with him but it's John's song, 80-20 to John. | „ | 
| —Paul McCartney, Paul McCartney: Many Years From Now, Barry Miles, 1997 | ||
