"How Do You Sleep?" is a song from John Lennon's 1971 album Imagine, which was interpreted as an attack aimed at his former Beatles' songwriting partner, Paul McCartney, though after Lennon wrote it he states in an interview it was an attack against himself.
Following the release of McCartney's album Ram earlier that year, Lennon felt attacked by McCartney, who later admitted that lines in the song "Too Many People" were intended as digs at Lennon[1] (Lennon thought that other songs on the album, such as "3 Legs," contained similar attacks).[2]
The song's lyrics refer to the Paul is dead controversy, ("Those freaks was right when they said you was dead").[3] The song begins with the lyrics, "So Sgt. Pepper took you by surprise", referring to their landmark album. Preceding this first line are ambient sounds evocative of those heard at the beginning of the Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band album.
The lyrics, "The only thing you done was yesterday/And since you've gone you're just another day" are directed at McCartney, the first lyric being a reference to The Beatles' 1965 song "Yesterday". In the "Imagine" film, (with Harrison playing alongside Lennon) an obviously upset Lennon sings, "How do you sleep you cunt?" before he asks the engineer to stop the recording.[citation needed] The second lyric is a reference to McCartney's hit single, "Another Day", released earlier in 1971. Lennon initially penned the lyrics, "You probably pinched that bitch anyway", as a reference to the many times McCartney himself had made claims that he wasn't sure if he "nicked" Yesterday, having asked Lennon, Harrison, Martin and others if they heard that song before. Although Lennon receives the sole credit as the song's author, multiple reports indicate that Ono, as well as Allen Klein, Lennon's manager, also contributed lyrics.
