Suicide is Painless (Theme from M*A*S*H* — текст песни (Mike Altman)

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...

[REFRAIN]:

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...

[REFRAIN]

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.

[REFRAIN]

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.

[REFRAIN]

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...

[REFRAIN]

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?`

[REFRAIN]

`Cause suicide is painless.

It brings on many changes.

And I can take or leave it if I please.

...And you can do the same thing if you choose.
