Trivia

Interesting facts about Glass Onion - Remastered 2009. By Songfacts.

In this song, John Lennon uses meaningless lyrics to confuse people who were reading too much into his songs. He mentions other Beatles songs throughout the lyric and gives them one more to chew on: "Glass Onion." He got a kick out of people trying to analyze his lyrics.


A glass onion is a coffin with a see-through lid. Because of this, it became a big part of the "Paul is Dead" hoax. Another clue for those who believed the hoax: Lennon sang, "The Walrus is Paul." In many European countries, a walrus represents death.


Five other Beatles songs are referenced in the lyrics: "Strawberry Fields Forever" - "I told you about strawberry fields" "I Am The Walrus" - "I told you about the walrus and me" "Lady Madonna" - "Lady Madonna trying to make ends meet" "The Fool On The Hill" - "I told you about the fool on the hill" "Fixing A Hole" - "Fixing a hole in the ocean"
