Suicide

Motörhead

From the album Inferno, 2004


Sarah Sitkin






The night is mine, it burns so black,
And there will be no morning light,
The human race's foul disease,
Will keep the morning from our sight,
Why can't we say the secret word,
Respect for nothing, fire or flood,
Expect no quarter, no reprieve,
We writhe and grin in our own blood,

No sun just clouds and poison rain,
Raped and freezing,
Victims of the dream again,

Truly our days are darker now,
We lie and cheat, to our own selves,
If we do this, I ask you how,
Can we speak truth to someone else,
There is no way, no road at all,
We are destroyed, by our own plan,
The air we breathe will kill us all,
And no one left to give a damn,

No sun just clouds and poison rain,
Raped and feezing,
Victims of the dream again,

Stay clean, be true,
do whatever you can do,
Make it soon, or we all die,
Ten thousand years, and all we got is Suicide,
If there be Gods, then tell me why,
They make us kill and kill again,
One hundred thousand thousand years,
No mercy in the minds of men,
What is the word that we should read,
What incantation should we say,
How can we ask for justice now,
When all the world is blown away,

No sun, no hope the world is sun insane,
Raped and freezing,
Victims of the dream again,
Stay clean, be true,
Make it soon, or we all die,
Ten thousand years, and all we got is Suicide


In The Name of Tragedy

Motörhead

From the album Inferno, 2004








Were you ever lost,
were you ever young,
were you ever safe little brother,
Do you see the sense of the evidence,
are you still part of the struggle,
Did you bang your head,
did you go to bed,
does it still feel pretty funky,
Lay back and dream,
in the death machine,
pity you still think like a monkey,

Bring it up, bring it down til you hit the ground,
Get a rude attitude, turn the world around,
Shall we see, shall we disagree,
Sing it all In The Name of Tragedy,

Did you ever lie,
ever wonder why,
nobody believed you honey,
What a pretty smile,
drive the people wild,
wonder who ran off with the money,
Do you ever change,
is it going to rain,
will it bring you pennies from heaven,
Do you know the score,
are you waiting for,
anxious for the new Armageddon,

Live it up, live it down til we hit the ground,
Cop a rude attitude from the world around,
Shall we see, shall we disagree,
Sing it all In The Name of Tragedy,

Marbles in your mouth,
what's it all about,
do you know the name of the winner,
If I was to go,
would you let it show,
life is not a TV dinner,
If you dream of me,
will you ever see,
do you want a piece of the action,
If I wasn't sure,
would you do it more,
help me to achieve an erection,

Get it up, get it down til you hit the ground,
Get a rude attitude, turn the world around,
Shall we see, shall we disagree,
All In The Name of Tragedy,

Sing it loud, sing it out, make the people shout,
Get it all, get it on, get it sorted out,
Be a seer, be sincere, can you really see,
All In The Name of Tragedy

Lord Flashheart

Blackadder | BBC Comedy Greats

~ Compilation ~

Lord Flashheart is a First World War Flying Ace and Squadron Commander. He was played by Rik Mayall.





















The Death of Comedy

Harry & Paul (originally titled Ruddy Hell! It's Harry & Paul) is a British sketch comedy show starring Harry Enfield and Paul Whitehouse. It was first broadcast on BBC One on 13 April 2007 and ran until 2nd December 2012 Even though Harry and Paul were "poking fun" at stereotypes, we would be hard pushed to see comedy like this on TV today due to all the PC nonsense. The sketch with the Filipino maid angered the Filipino government so much they started a campaign to condemn the sketch and eventually the BBC Director General had to officially apologise. This is a selection of some the sketches that angered the public, but of course are the most funny, cut into one episode.

I Want To Live

And Morning Glory

~ This Mortal Coil ~

From Filigree & Shadow (1986)



I've gathered all my lifetime memories of you.
My lusty sentiments they made life seem true.
I'm rather selfish and I mean to be unkind.
You can't imagine what it does to me inside.
But where am I? I want to die.
I want to live. I want to die.

If I were someone I would like to be a fool.
No one would know me and I think that would be cool.
I'd paint a picture of my life upon your wall.
And use the colors that have made life seem small.
But where am I? I want to die.
I want to live. I want to die.

But you've got a way of understanding me.
And I just call it one of your mysteries
But you know that you've got to stay close to me, close to me.
But where am I? I want to die.
But where am I? I want to die.
I want to die.
I want to give.
I want to die.
Die die die die,
Die die die die.
