Leck mich im Arsch is a canon in B-flat major composed by Wolfgang
Amadeus Mozart, K. 231 (K382c), with lyrics in German. It was one of a
set of at least six canons probably written in Vienna in 1782.[1] Sung
by six voices as a three-part round, it is thought to be a party piece
for his friends.
A literal translation of the song's title and lyrics into English
would be "Lick me in the ass". The correct idiomatic translation is
"Kiss my ass" or "Get stuffed".[2] The scatological title and lyrics
have been used as evidence to support the contention that Mozart had
Tourette syndrome, although that conjecture is not widely supported by
medical professionals
