"Oh, I like that, one of my best. I had forgotten about that. Oh, I love it. I think it's a beautiful song. I like all the different things that are happening in it.

"It wasn't [about heroin]. It was never--like all the ones that really--like LSD, the 'Lucy in the Sky,' which I swear to God or swear to Mao, or anybody you like, I'd no intention. 'Happiness Is a Warm Gun' is the same.

I just thought it was a fantastic, insane thing to say. A warm gun means you just shot something."
