===Early protest lyrics{{anchor|No Pakistanis}}===
When McCartney introduced the song to the group during the Twickenham rehearsals, the lyrics were mostly incomplete except for the "Get Back" chorus. McCartney improvised various temporary lyrics leading to what has become known in Beatles' folklore as the "No Pakistanis" version. This version parodied the [[anti-immigrant]] views of [[Enoch Powell]], a [[Member of Parliament (United Kingdom)|Member of Parliament]] (MP) whose racially charged speeches, particularly the [[Rivers of Blood]] speech, had recently gained much media attention.<ref>{{cite web |last=Whatley |first=Jack |url=https://faroutmagazine.co.uk/paul-mccartney-beatles-song-racist-lyrics-get-back/ |title=The controversial racist lyrics removed from The Beatles classic track |date=14 October 2020 |access-date=31 December 2021 |work=[[Far Out Magazine]]}}</ref> The lyrics addressed attitudes toward immigrants in the United States and the United Kingdom: "...&nbsp;don't need no [[Puerto Ricans in the United States|Puerto Ricans]] living in the USA"; and "don't dig no [[Pakistanis]] taking all the people's jobs."{{sfn|Sulpy|Schweighardt|2003|p=153}} Later during the same session, the subject of immigration came up again in an improvised [[Jam (music)|jam]] that has become known as "Commonwealth".
