Happiness is a warm gun Lyrics – Chris Thomas

Happiness is a warm gun Lyrics – Chris Thomas


[Part I: The Dirty Old Man “ 00:00-00:43]
[Verse 1: John Lennon, John Lennon & Paul McCartney]
She’s not a girl who misses much
Do do do do do do, oh yeah
She’s well-acquainted with the touch of the velvet hand
Like a lizard on a window pane
The man in the crowd with the multicoloured mirrors
On his hobnail boots
Lying with his eyes while his hands are busy
Working overtime
A soap impression of his wife which he ate
And donated to the National Trust

[Part II: The Junkie “ 00:43-01:35]
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 2: John Lennon]
(Down
)
I need a fix ’cause I’m going down
Down to the bits that I left uptown
I need a fix ’cause I’m going down

[Bridge: John Lennon & Paul McCartney]
Mother Superior jumped the gun
Mother Superior jumped the gun
Mother Superior jumped the gun
Mother Superior jumped the gun
Mother Superior jumped the gun
Mother Superior jumped the gun

[Part III: The Gunman (Satire of ’50s R&R) “ 01:35-02:45]
[Chorus]
Happiness is a warm gun
(Bang, bang, shoot, shoot)
Happiness is a warm gun, mama
(Bang, bang, shoot, shoot)

[Verse 3]
When I hold you in my arms (Ooh, oh, yeah)
And I feel my finger on your trigger
(Ooh, oh, yeah)
I know nobody can do me no harm
(Ooh, oh, yeah)
Because
