Suicide is Painless - Johnny Mandel(capo 2)

Through early morning fog I see

visions of the things to be,

the pains that are withheld for me

I realise that I can see.

The game of life is hard to play,

I'm gonna lose it anyway.

The losing card of some delay,

so this is all I have to say.

The sword of time will pierce our skin,

it doesn't hurt when it begins,

but as it works its way on in

the pain grows stronger, watch it grin.

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 please.
