You say there ain't no use in livin'
It's all a waste of time
'n you wanna throw your life away, well
People that's just fine
Go ahead on 'n get it over with then
Find you a bridge 'n take a jump
Just make sure you do it right the first time
'cause nothin's worse than a suicide
Chump
You say there ain't no light a-shinin'
Through the bushes up ahead
'n we're all gonna be so sorry
When we find out you are dead
Go head on and get it over with then
Find you a bridge 'n take a jump
Just make sure you do it right the first
Time
'cause nothin's worse than a suicide
Chump
Now maybe you're scared of jumpin'
'n poison makes you sick
'n you want a little attention
'n you need it pretty quick
Don't wanna mess your face up
Or we won't know if it's you
Aw there's just so much to worry about
Now what you gonna do?
Go head on 'n get it over with then
Go head on 'n get it over with then
Go head on 'n get it over with then
Go head on 'n get it over with then
You're on the bridge;
Scared to leap,
But a girl walks over
To take a peep...
She says: "don't do it!"
But wouldn't you know...
The girl got a head
Like a buffalo
With a little red hair
All over the top
An' her breath would make the
Traffic stop
She says "I love you...
But first, let's eat!"
And all you can say as you run down the
Street
Is...
The lyrics of "Suicide Chump" by Frank Zappa can be interpreted as a satirical commentary on the absurdity and impulsiveness of contemplating suicide. The singer in the song addresses someone who expresses their desire to end their life, presenting a tongue-in-cheek response suggesting that if they are going to go through with it, they should do it right the first time. The sarcastic tone highlights the irrationality of such a decision and dismisses it as a "waste of time." The lyrics also touch on the idea that attention-seeking or wanting to make others feel sorry for them could be driving the suicidal thoughts. The final verse introduces a humorous twist, with a girl with unusual characteristics attempting to intervene and distract the person from their intentions, emphasizing the unpredictability and absurdity of life and its potential distractions.

You say there ain't no use in livin'
You express that life has no purpose
It's all a waste of time
You believe that every moment is meaningless
'n you wanna throw your life away, well
And you desire to end your own life
People that's just fine
You find it acceptable if others share your sentiment
Go ahead on 'n get it over with then
So go ahead and do it without further delay
Find you a bridge 'n take a jump
Locate a bridge and commit suicide by jumping off of it
Just make sure you do it right the first time
However, do it correctly on the initial attempt
'cause nothin's worse than a suicide
Because nothing is more tragic than taking one's own life
Chump
Labeling yourself as foolish for contemplating suicide
You say there ain't no light a-shinin'
You believe there is no hope or positivity
Through the bushes up ahead
Even in the future, there is no brightness
'n we're all gonna be so sorry
And all of us will feel regret
When we find out you are dead
Once we discover that you have passed away
Now maybe you're scared of jumpin'
Perhaps you are hesitant to take the leap
'n poison makes you sick
And the thought of poisoning yourself disgusts you
'n you want a little attention
And you crave some form of recognition
'n you need it pretty quick
And you require it promptly
Don't wanna mess your face up
You don't want to ruin your appearance
Or we won't know if it's you
Otherwise, it will be difficult to identify you
Aw there's just so much to worry about
Oh, there are numerous concerns to consider
Now what you gonna do?
So what actions will you take?
You're on the bridge;
You are standing on the bridge
Scared to leap,
Afraid to jump
But a girl walks over
However, a girl approaches
To take a peep...
To have a look
She says: "don't do it!"
She advises against committing suicide
But wouldn't you know...
But as you might have guessed...
The girl got a head
The girl possesses a head
Like a buffalo
Similar to that of a buffalo
With a little red hair
Her hair is slightly red
All over the top
Covering the entirety of the head
An' her breath would make the
And her breath has the power to
Traffic stop
Cause traffic to halt
She says "I love you...
She expresses her love for you
But first, let's eat!"
But before anything else, let's have a meal!
And all you can say as you run down the
And all you can utter as you sprint down the
Street
Road or pathway
Is...
Is just...
Go head on 'n get it over with then
Go ahead and put an end to your life right away
Go head on 'n get it over with then
Go ahead and put an end to your life right away
Go head on 'n get it over with then
Go ahead and put an end to your life right away
Go head on 'n get it over with then
Go ahead and put an end to your life right away

Some of your videos are sad but it really shows people to stay out of trouble because they know some of the consequences

Someone at my school probably got life in prison, we have classes out in trailers and he caught it on fire while people were in it. The trailer is still getting repaired I'm ashamed to say I dated the idiot. Hes getting what he deserves.
