Hey dude, just correcting you here, it's not actually about suicide. It sounds like it is though. It's about heroin use. Listen to the song and in the backround vocals, you will hear "Bang, Bang, Shoot, Shoot" Shoot, Shoot as in shooting up heroin. Also, "When I hold you in my arm, and I feel my finger on your trigger, I know nobody could do me no harm, because Happiness Is A Warm Gun." When I hold you in my arm, as in holding to needle in his arm. And the title itself, Warm as in the warm feeling the user gets when they inject the heroin into themselves. A lot of the Beatles' songs are about drugs man. Lol i went through the same situation last night in my car, I was listening to this song and my dad told me all about it. I was like, "Oh... The More you know" lol. Well, that's what it means, good day sir.

well, i suppose. My history teacher( who is a Beatles fan) said it was a sexual reference
"when i hold you in my arms"
So many people can think differently i suppose, because it's all in the name of good music
..... well, except the Manson Family who took their lyrics as an apocolyptic race war

Nobody can really seem to put a direct meaning on a lot of their songs lol. The Beatles made great music though.

I just explained to you that the song is not about suicide, but it is about heroin use. Look it up.

Actually John saw "Happiness is a warm gun" in some magazine and thought that was a crazy thing to say, so he wrote it :D
But the lyrics for most of it (Lizard on a window pane and all that) Are just nonsense.
Amazing song too :D
