John Lennon's, "How Do You Sleep"
The Insulting Lyrics:
The only thing you did was yesterday
And since your gone you're just another day
And since your gone you're just another day
Why They're Insulting:
John's basically telling Paul that he no longer means anything to him.

John Lennon's, "Working Class Hero"
The Insulting Lyrics:
Keep you doped with religion and sex and TV
And you think you're so clever and classless and free
But you're still f**king peasants as far as I can see
And you think you're so clever and classless and free
But you're still f**king peasants as far as I can see
Why They're Insulting:
Dropping the F-bomb in a song was highly unusual at the time, this was in 1970 right after the Beatles were disbanded so the general public didn't expect to hear this kind of profanity. And it's just flat out insulting, of course. It's still brilliant though.
