Paul McCartney said a “military-looking” woman influenced The Beatles’ Sgt. Pepper. Paul didn’t like disparaging the woman’s looks in a book he wrote. Sgt. Pepper was more popular in the United States than in the United Kingdom.

Paul McCartney said one song from The Beatles‘ Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band was inspired by a woman he did not find attractive. He felt bad discussing the woman’s looks in a book he wrote. Subsequently, he said the track displayed his ability to paint a picture.In his 2021 book The Lyrics: 1956 to the Present, Paul discussed his view of parking attendants. “Nobody liked parking attendants, or meter maids, as they were known in that benighted era,” he wrote. “So, to write a song about being in love with a meter maid — someone nobody else liked — was amusing in itself.” The song in question was “Lovely Rita.”
