    She's not a pup who misses much
    Do do do do do do, woof woof
    She's well-acquainted with the touch of the velvet leash
    Like a kitten on a window pane
    The man in the crowd with the multicolored treats
    at the old dog park
    Lying with his eyes while his hands are busy
    given scrithes
    A soap impression of his chow which he pet
    And discovered at the National pound
    I need a scritch cause I'm going down
    Down to the pit bulls I left uptown
    I need a scritch 'cause I'm going down
    Labrador Retriever jumped the pup

    Happiness is a warm pup (boop boop snoot snoot)
    Happiness is a warm pup, momma (boop boop snoot snoot)
    When I hold you in my paws (ooh, oh, yeah)
    And I feel your scritchers on my tummy (ooh, oh, yeah)
    I know nobody can do me no harm (ooh, oh, yeah)
    Because
    Happiness is a warm pup (boop boop snoot snoot)
    Happiness is a warm pup, momma (boop boop snoot snoot)
    Well, don't you know that happiness is a warm pup momma?
    Happiness is a warm, yes it is, PUUUUUUUPPPP
    OWOW OWOW ROWOOOOOOoooooooooo!!!

    Gotta say I always loved George the most tho, he was the “silent beatle” and that’s what I loved about him. It was hard for awhile for me to go back and forth between John and paul bc their both so equally talented, but it came down to who George was as a person.

Imo, a song written and vetoed as not being a Beatles song in 66' would have fit this side even better, not to mention it was extreamly deep.... The Art of Dieing. Jmo

Hearing how many takes it took reminds me of an interview George gave in the 70s when he was asked what made the Beatles so good. He replied "We worked harder than anyone else". And "Happiness ..." is proof of that.

      Splicing music or speech with 1/4 Inch tape, a White Chinagraph, and a razor blade is not all that difficult if you are organized and without distractions. You get into a sort of zone where all you can think about is the editing task at hand. Bits of tape held onto the tape machine (Usually a Tandberg machine for spoken word, or maybe an Otari MTR10 or a Studer A80 for music as they could hold NAB spools) with words like "Breath" or "Um", "Er" or stuff like "last 4 bars of take 1" or "Alternate ending" in White Chinagraph pencil were valuable tools to get it just right. I learned how to edit with tape but tape is sooooo expensive these days, that I don't bother with it.. and after re-learning on digital, I figure that it's made editing that much easier so any untrained kid can do it.

      @Johnny Morphine No... It was liquid LSD formed into a thin gel, cured, then cut into tiny pieces. Here we had 4 way amber & brown windowpane. You could see through it (hence the name.) If you were brave enough & put one in your eye, it would dissolve in less than 2 minutes & you would sky rocket off to Mars instantly. It was the good shit. Trees would turn into cartoons, you'd feel yourself melt through walls, everything was alive etc. I did a lot of it & loved it!

      What hippy said- they are translucent gel tabs, a form of conveyance for Uncle Cid. I can attest that windowpane was still readily available for dissolving on (someone who isn't you) tongues in 2004, as thats the last time I had the quixotic pleasure of seeing it in person(PA, USA). But being its just a vehicle, im sure that as we speak some trays of it are congealing somewhere in a town near you. Cheeahs

    Glad to see you highlighting the genius of John. His putting together of snippets from articles though, is not the implied plagiarism you hint at. Rather than the snippets, it's how they were put together into a potent and highly relevant song. It was John's innate genius. It's why John WAS the Beatles and the sole reason for their magnitude and impact upon the world.

    I have some great ADHD and rarely finish songs. I have listened to every single Beatles song but whenever this one came on I’d listen to about half of it. Not until a few weeks ago, I was caught off guard by the second part. That has to be one of the most beautiful pieces of music I’ve ever heard and I had no idea it was there.

    Can you do a 10 Interesting Facts about the Carnival of Light.
    As much as I would love to hear the song, I feel it is best left unheard. Think about it, the majority of the song's intrigue is because it is unheard; if it is heard, it loses that.
    1) The master reel should be pressed up.
    2) Fitted w/ a sleeve of beautiful artwork; befitting the time it was created.
    3) And exhibited in a museum, behind impenetrable glass, in perpetuity.
    *This would be a lovely marriage between art & music; a marriage The Beatles have long adored
    *The song is an experimental song
    *The presentation would be experimental: "The unheard song."; like the bottle of wine not meant to drink.

      It’s a crap song the remaining Beatles are embarrassed about. From all accounts it’s disjointed and leads no where. Yes, it’s Paul’s attempt to get into avant garde prior to John. I just feel it’s a huge build up to nothing. Would I love to hear it? Yes! But based off of everything I’ve read it’s not very worth while. Including said testimony from other Beatles. I agree it’s best left unheard. You do know at some point it will be released. I find it impressive that it hasn’t been released in some form by a bootlegger or someone with access to the master tapes. What more interesting to me is the bootlegs of the songs the Beatles gave away. Like A world without love, and early songs they gave away.

    I don’t mind your videos being too long! Others, likely. The info is worth the time. I’d be interested of how the band influenced each others’ writing as they evolved from “Lennon & McCartney” to Lennon, McCartney, Harrison. Songs such as Mr. Kite to Elenor Rigby or Strawberry Fields to Penny Lane. Love your vids and research/knowledge. Thanks!

    When i heard the news that john Lennon was shot and killed I felt too numb to believe that is was really true that he was dead. I went to my radio in my bedroom and the station was playing all the Lennon solo and Beatle songs like all the other rock stations around the world. But when they played Happiness is a Warm Gun I snapped and smashed my fist into the radio and broke it I was so pissed off i cried for over an hour my brother his girlfriend and my father all came into my room to console me they understood what the Beatles and Lennon's music meant to me. So nobody got mad that i busted the radio they all understood and cried with me. And if my mother were alive then she hated John Lennon for his JESUS comments she would have cried too that night.

      I truly understand you because I love John Lennon since I was 6
      Found out he was in Heaven about a year after I started loving him
      Even though I know he is happy now, it really hurts that he isn’t with us anymore
      Wish I would have met him but unfortunately I was born 7 years after God decided to take him with his angels
      That makes it hurt even more
      He was a beatiful person

      My friends mother felt the same, after John comment about Jesus. It was around 67, and I mention the Beatles while visiting my friends. and I was ask not to talk about the Beatles, for exactly that reason. And it was years before I heard the exact recording of the interview, where I realized if she ( friends mother ) would have heard what he was pointing out to be true, I might have been able to speak of the Beatles again, at least in their house, but I was only 9 years old at the time, and she was very religious and catholic. and at the time it did seem like the kids were paying more attention to their music, than Jesus, and like he said he wasn't saying they were greater or better. The man is definitely a legend..

      Glass Onion was a deliberate attempt by John to mislead all the conspiracists who were looking for hidden meanings in the Beatles songs. Thus the reasons for references to previous Beatles songs. John was not a fan of the song calling it "a throwaway" John had done this previously on ' I am the Walrus' - "yellow matter custard" for instance was just a reference to a rhyme John and his mates used sing as children in Liverpool - as John said to his friend Pete Shotton - "let the f****ers work this one out" lol
