John Lennon's Nip Slip

Posted Dec 21st 2008 10:51AM by TMZ Staff

For $40,000, you can hear a wasted John Lennon sing about sucking nipples.

Today, the auction house Bonham's is selling Lennon's outtake of the 1973 song "Just Because" to the highest bidder. On the track, according to the NY Post, you hear the former Beatle slur, "I wanna take all them new singers, Carol and the other one with the nipples, I wanna take 'em and hold 'em tight, all them people that James Taylor had... I wanna suck your nipples, baby!"

We're guessin' Carol is Carole King and the other chick with the nipples must be Carly Simon.

P.S. -- Lennon re-recorded "Just Because" for his "Rock 'n' Roll" album in 1975.

2. Boy, that "lost weekend" really went to his head. $40, 000 to own this crap? Give booze a chance instead.

5. I'm sure he is referencing Carly Simon. Her album cover in 1973 showed her braless nipples trhough a very form fitting blue shirt.

7. Yes, it was Carly Simon's No Secrets album. Form-fitting blue shirt, no bra and nipples looking right at you.

9. Wow TMZ I think you need to get a better personal writer for your little gossip columns, not to mention a more informed one. The names of the women are spelled C-A-R-O-L-E King with an e on the end, and C-A-R-L-Y Simon with no e before the y. Keep up with the great work TMZ, you're doing just great!

10. I would have liked to suck Carly's nipples back then too, as a matter of fact.

11. Yoko's nipples are medium-sized.

12. Uh ... It's CARLY Simon and CAROLE King. You don't have the ability to compose a complete sentence and spell on a 1st grade level. I have a great idea. Why don't you go into pseudo journalism? When you have SPELLCHECK and the world at your fingertips via a computer and still f*ck up you convince me you couldn't accurately fill a to go order or tie your own shoestrings.

15. "Uh, it's CARLY Simon and CAROLE King. You don't have the ability to compose a complete sentence and spell on a 1st grade level. I have a great idea: Why don't you go into pseudo-journalism?

I have fixed your punctuation errors, Mr. "No one proofreads at TMZ". Perhaps you should hire a proofreader?
