Lyrics

You got an arm You got a needle You do no harm I kill a Beatle John, George, Ringo, or Paul It really doesn't matter at all

The guillotine of '45 That is what I made my wife

Cut off the heads of your imperialistic shithead Send my royalties to where I sit Shit, la la la Means I love you Shit, la la la la Means I love you

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14

You've got an arm You've got a needle You do no harm I kill a Beatle John, George, Ringo, or Paul It really doesn't matter at all

The guillotine of '45 That is what I made my wife

Cut off the heads of your imperialistic shit Send my royalties to where I sit Shit, la la la Means I love you Shit, la la la la Means I love you Shit, la la Means I love you
