Through early morning fog I see visions of the things to be
The pains that are withheld for me I realize and I can see . . .
That suicide is painless it brings on many changes
And I can take or leave it if I please.

I try to find a way to make all our little joys relate
Without that ever-present hate but now I know that it’s too late,

and . . .That suicide is painless it brings on many changes
And I can take or leave it if I please.

The game of life is hard to play. I’m gonna lose it anyway.

The losing card I’ll someday lay so this is all I have to say.

That suicide is painless it brings on many changes
And I can take or leave it if I please.

The only way to win is cheat and lay it down before I’m beat,

and to another give my seat for that’s the only painless feat.

That suicide is painless it brings on many changes
And I can take or leave it if I please.

The sword of time will pierce our skins it doesn’t hurt when it begins

But as it works its way on in the pain grows stronger . . . watch it grin, but . . .
That suicide is painless it brings on many changes
And I can take or leave it if I please.

A brave man once requested me to answer questions that are key
'Is it to be or not to be' and I replied 'oh why ask me?'

And you can do the same thing if you choose.

i love that tune !! and it's even better during the movie when you can actually hear the words that were written for it ! unfortunately ......suicide is not painless. maybe for the one doing it , but the ones left behind are the ones to consider. i personally couldn't even think obout doing it due to religious reasons , but in some cases i've read and heard of ( Dr Kavorkian ) i can see how some would just rather end it. i'll let the almighty pull my plug when it's time ! can't cheat death and win.
my own personal thoughts...to each thier own !

Man, I have been down and beaten and dumped and pissed on and poor and hungry times ten but never once did I ever consider suicide. I just can't understand how the mind works sometimes.

Hey GTO

You alright there man? I hope you are.

I’ll be honest, I have contemplated suicide a time or two in my life. Then I had an experience where I was critically wounded and was as close to death as one could get. Let me tell you, it’s no a place you want to be no matter how bad things seem in your life.

I’ll go out on a limb here but if you or anyone else reading this is feeling down enough to thing about doing this I am only an email or a phone call away.

As long as we’re posting song lyrics, Monty Python said it best in “The life of Brian”



Some things in life are bad
They can really make you mad
Other things just make you swear
and curse
When you're chewing on
life's gristle
Don't grumble, give a whistle
And this'll help things turn out for the best...
And...

...always lood on the bright side
of life...
(Whistle)

Always look on the light side
of life...
(Whistle)

If life seems jolly rotten
There's something you've forgotten
And that's to laugh and smile and
dance and sing
When you're feeling in the dumps
Don't be silly chumps
Just purse your lips and whistle
- that's the thing.
And...always look on the bright
side of life...
(Whistle)

Come on.

Always look on the bright side
of life...
(Whistle)

For life is quite absurd
And death's the final word
You must always face the curtain
with a bow
Forget about your sin - give the
audience a grin
Enjoy it - it's your last chance
anyhow.
So always look on the bright side
of death
Just before you draw your
terminal breath
Life's a piece of ****
When you look at it
Life's a laugh and death's a joke
it's true
You'll see it's all a show
Keep 'em laughing as you go
Just remember that the last laugh
is on you
And always look on the bright side
of life...
(Whistle)

Always look on the right side
of life...
(Whistle)

Come on guys, cheer up.

Always look on the bright side
of life...

Always look on the bright side
of life...

Worse things happen at sea you know.

Always look on the bright side
of life...

I mean - what have you got to lose?
You know, you come from nothing
- you're going back to nothing.
What have you lost? Nothing.

Always look on the right side
of life...

I don't believe in the word suicide. I believe when we are born our soul is stamped with an expiration date. What is the difference if you die by your own hand or by a drunk driver or shot to death in a robbery or natural causes. Dead is dead. When your expiration date comes due you die thus making room for the newbies. JonR

kcody, yes im very happy and I do not want to die anytime soon, I posted these lyrics for a few reasons, none of which have to do with killing myself.

Of course they are powerful lyrics, and bring many thoughts into the mind. Why do you all think that they picked this song for the mash movie and tv show? Of course they left out the lyrics on the tv show and for good reason I imagine.

I see these lyrics as a war time song of doctors making tuff decisions a song about life and death. A song to make you think. That’s why they picked this song for the movie and show. And it’s some really good dark poetry. lol

It was a very suiting song for the movie/show. And I always had seen the removal of the lyrics for the tv show as a sign of weakness on the part of the sensors and producers or whoever was in charge of removing them.
