Fixing A HoleAnother Beatle cache! This one, the muggle traffic is insane, so watch out! And have fun!
I'm fixing a hole where the rain gets in
and stops my mind from wandering
where it will go
I'm filling the cracks that ran though the door
and kept my mind from wandering
where it will go
In a 1967 interview, McCartney said that the following lines were about fans who hung around outside his home day and night, and whose actions he found off-putting:
See the people standing there
who disagree, and never win
And wonder why they don't get in my door
Reportedly, McCartney was inspired to write the song after mending a hole in the roof of his Scotland home; however, he has stated that the song was "about the hole in the road where the rain gets in, a good old analogy”
