Lyrics for Song: Glass Onion
Lyrics for Album: The White Album (Remastered) [2009]
I told you about strawberry fields
You know the place where nothing is real
Well here's another place you can go
Where everything flows
Looking through the bent backed tulips
To see how the other half live
Looking through a glass onion
I told you about the walrus and me, man
You know that we're as close as can be, man
Well here's another clue for you all
The walrus was Paul
Standing on the cast iron shore, yeah
Lady Madonna trying to make ends meet, yeah
Looking through a glass onion
Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah
Looking through a glass onion
I told you about the fool on the hill
I tell you man he's living there still
Well here's another place you can be
Listen to me
Fixing a hole in the ocean
Tryin' to make a dovetail joint
Looking through a glass onion

Glass Onion
Released on The Beatles' 1968 double album, 'Glass Onion' stands as a pivotal track in the group's evolution toward experimental soundscapes. Recorded during the band's final studio sessions, the song features a distinctive, repetitive guitar riff that sets the tone for the album's eclectic mix of styles. The track showcases the band's growing confidence in exploring new musical territories, moving away from their polished pop formula to embrace a more abstract and psychedelic approach. As part of The White Album, 'Glass Onion' reflects the creative tensions and artistic freedom of the era, serving as a unique song point into the group's later work. Its enduring legacy lies in its ability to capture a specific moment in rock history where innovation and experimentation reached new heights. |
