  • I'm fixing a hole. It is in my roof. A roof the retailer said would never get holes. But, it did. And now, here I am, stuck with a gaping gap above my head. I'll be watching TV, look up, and see two eyes. Looking through the hole. They are yellow, which I think is unhealthy. As soon as I look, they go away. Perhaps I should take a picture of them. Anyway, I was planning on getting a ladder to go up there tonight and fix it. But those eyes haunt my dreams. I don't want to go up. The funny thing is, it gets bigger and bigger. It was only about three inches in diameter yesterday. Today it was five. No, this...
  • Fixing a Hole is a song by The Beatles. Paul McCartney wrote this after fixing the roof on his farm in Scotland. McCartney said the song was "about the hole in the road where the rain gets in, a good old analogy." This was the first time The Beatles used a studio other than one owned and operated by their record label EMI. The takes in this new studio - Regent Sound Studio, located in Tottenham Court Road, London - were numbered 1-3. They returned to Abbey Road the next day however, recording "A Day In The Life."

  • I'm fixing a hole. It is in my roof. A roof the retailer said would never get holes. But, it did. And now, here I am, stuck with a gaping gap above my head. I'll be watching TV, look up, and see two eyes. Looking through the hole. They are yellow, which I think is unhealthy. As soon as I look, they go away. Perhaps I should take a picture of them. Anyway, I was planning on getting a ladder to go up there tonight and fix it. But those eyes haunt my dreams. I don't want to go up. The funny thing is, it gets bigger and bigger. It was only about three inches in diameter yesterday. Today it was five. So, it must have been that thing that made the hole. In the first place. Sometimes it reaches its claws out and snaps them at me. It frowns, hisses, and goes away. It is no rat, reader. No, this... This is something else. And I need to get rid of it. Myself. So, I'm going up with a flashlight and a knife. And I'm fixing a hole. It is in my roof. Credited to LonelyRaven

(thanks, Matt - Lancaster, PA) It was rumored that this was about heroin, as in "getting a fix." There is no truth to this rumor. George Harrison became annoyed at the number of times Paul re-recorded vocals for this song, later saying he did almost nothing during the recording of the album but sit around all day listening to Paul singing the words "Fixing a hole" all day.
