31. One of Mozart’s Lesser-Known Compositions: “Lick Me in the Ass“
Among other manifestations of his anal obsession, Mozart was especially keen on getting his butt licked. In 1782, he composed Leck mich im Arsch (“Lick Me in the Ass”), a party piece for his friends. The lyrics include “lick me in the ass, nice and clean“, and the composition continues on in that vein. Mozart’s publisher was scandalized by the lyrics, but he liked the music.
So the tinkered with (or basically rewrote) the lyrics, and changed the song’s theme and refrain from ass licking to “Let us be glad!” Mozart also composed Bona Nox, whose lyrics include: “Phoey, phoey; … shit in your bed and make it burst; good night, sleep tight; and stick your ass to your mouth“.
