For some reason many years ago, I watched a show about the making of this song.

The writer of the music and the song writer didn't know each other - they both rented studio space in the same building.

The music was written and they asked about the building for someone to write a song for the music. The song writer spent a fair amount of effort writing lyrics, but thought they should have another option to show, so they slapped something together in 5 mins... The 5 min option is what was picked.

After it was a hit, they tried to make music together, but didn't really have the same interests.

Something like that at least.

For a warmup, have you never heard of The Little Red Songbook? Already-arranged four-part harmony for most of the tunes is as close as your nearest christian hymnal.

Weird sinchronicity:

There is a popular conspiracy theory around MK Ultra, that they had a sleeper assassins program through brainwashing, something like a Manchurian candidate but for hitmans.

As the legend goes, the "agent" would be "waked" through a verbal command or in some cases through a phrase found in a certain book,

One of these books being the Catcher in the Rye, that allegedly found in possession or in the crime scene of many mass shooters/ serial killers ...

One of the most famous being Mark Chapman, the guy who killed Lennon.. he was caught reading the book on the moment of the arrest
