  Glass Onion by The Beatles Songfacts
A glass onion is a coffin with a see-through lid.
One theory is that "Glass Onion" refers to Lennon's opinion of the yogic concept of the lotus with its layered petals (layers of consciousness to be stripped away, much like an onion, through meditation) as a bunch of transparent bull used by the Maharishi to manipulate and seduce.
A glass onion is not a television, or coffin, or watever!

 Urban Dictionary: glass onion
It means to overanalyze something that is not intended to mean anything more then what it is. The entire point of the Glass Onion song was to poke fun at all the people who had looked for deep messages in previous beatle songs.
Originating from the Beatles song "Glass Onion" off their 1968 self-titled, or "white" album, the term was believed to mean a glass-lidded coffin by the followers of the Paul is Dead conspiracy.
A glass onion is something that would have layer after layer peeled away, only to realise that it was transparent all along.

 The Glass Onion - Origins
In any case, I thought the lyrics to the song "Glass Onion" from their White Album were convoluted and filled with enough self references to be somewhat descriptive of my perspectives of things.

 The glass onion...
The truth can be defined simply as "what actually is",the problems begin when we ask ourselves how do we get to a place that can allow us to learn "what actually is" from "what is not",this brings us to the examination of details.
The problem with examining in fine detail is that nine times out of ten a "detail" can take on the appearance of an onion and becomes such a many layered thing, that the original question becomes lost to other questions.
Now when a scientists examines this image in detail he will also note that this item is on the moon, which has no atmosphere, no water, and has only been visited by humans a few times in rather short time spans.

It is so called Glass Onion with a hint of irony: John Lennon wrote this song to confuse all the people who decided to turn the Beatles songs upside down in order to tear a "great meaning" out of them.
This, however, is not my intention: I merely would like to share with you the interesting inspirations and stories behind the many wonderful songs we all adore.
Glass Onion - As mentioned above, John had become frustrated with the world tearing the Beatle's songs apart looking for a deep spiritual meaning and wrote this to confuse and riducule them.
