I always heard the story that when McCartney first came up with the melody of yesterday, he would sing "scrambled eggs" until he came with more suitable lyrics. Wikipedia says the original lyrics were "Scrambled Eggs/Oh, my baby how I love your legs".

If the Beatles took the approach of the song writers in this article, they wouldn't have bothered to write the beautiful lyrics for yesterday and just been satisfied with scrambled eggs.
