Cover art for F-Hole lyrics by Squeeze

A man describes a very unpleasant sounding interaction with a woman but he seems to have had an OK time.

The melody is intentionally annoying, repeating a short pattern over and over. The lyrics are also intentionally annoying, with sudden segues forced by a need to create near rhymes.

All told, the song is unpleasant in at least three ways, but the combined effect is humorous -- the line "looks like Bela Lugosi" stuck with me since I first heard it in 1981.

"F hole" denotes a guitar, but was probably intended as an obscene wordplay.

Yep, sounds like a pun to me (lol)!
