  • PLAYBOY: What about the sexual puns: "When you feel my finger on your trigger"?

    LENNON: Well, it was at the beginning of my relationship with Yoko and I was very sexually oriented then. When we weren't in the studio, we were in bed.

    PLAYBOY: What was the allusion to "Mother Superior jumps the gun"?

    LENNON: I call Yoko Mother or Madam just in an offhand way. The rest doesn't mean anything. It's just images of her.

  • um... no. Have you actually read what John Lennon said this song is about?

    PLAYBOY: "Happiness Is a Warm Gun."

    LENNON: No, it's not about heroin. A gun magazine was sitting there with a smoking gun on the cover and an article that I never read inside called "Happiness Is a Warm Gun." I took it right from there. I took it as the terrible idea of just having shot some animal.
