    “Have your fun whilst you're alive. You won't get nothing when you die. Have a good time all the time, because you won't get nothing when you die.”
    That's how I try to live.

    A philosophy for life
    A critique of Christianity
    A brilliant quirky song
    A blue peter reference
    Life doesn't get better
    Well done Chumba

    Have your fun while you're alive, you won't get nothing when you die. Have a good time all the time, because you won't get nothing when you die. Best mantra ever. I think I'll get that on my tombstone.

    Love this song and the one that came after it on the album I believe 'Stitch that' to those that have not heard it it's about an abused wife who sews her husband to his bed and beats him with kitchen utensils.

    Look, no strings! -- just paper, glue, and card
    Hark! the angels sing 'paste the lord'
    That was the Armley Tabernacle choir. next we'll be hearing the true story of the american housewife who claims to have taken mid-air photographs of jesus christ in the skies of Indiana
    High above the streets and houses
    Misses meta battle, with one hand on the valium and one hand on the bottle
    Somewhere over Indiana, eight miles high
    Meta battle sees the good lord wandering 'cross the sky
    Have your fun whilst your alive
    You won't get nothing when you die
    Have a good time all the time because you won't get nothing when you die
    Look, no strings! -- just paper, glue, and card
    Hark! the angels sing 'paste the lord'
    Gobsmacked, William Shatnered
    Meta does a double take
    Come on baby, do the camera shake
    Half expecting from the aisle a certain Mister Beadle
    Watching you, watching us, watching missus meta battle
    Have your fun whilst your alive
    You won't get nothing when you die
    Have a good time all the time because you won't get nothing when you die
    Look, no strings! -- just paper, glue, and card
    Hark! the angels sing 'paste the lord'
    Look, no strings! -- just paper, glue, and card
    Hark! the angels sing 'paste the lord'
    Meta battle shot her lord
    And watched him tumble down
    And now there's people out with polaroids all around town
    And who knows, that jesus on the church near your house may well be the original
    Kiss it as you pass
    Have your fun whilst your alive
    You won't get nothing when you die
    Have a good time all the time because you won't get nothing when you die

      I'm pretty sure it's "have your fun while you're alive" and "paper, glue, and cord." I'm guessing that she's shooting down a Jesus kite.

    A nehilist might say an atheist is absurd because it presents as not a believer in god. And both concepts of god and atheism would have zero meaning and are nothing.

    • @anonUK
      @anonUK 2 роки тому

      Notwithstanding the existence or non-existence of God, one thing that is certain is that nihilists talk out of their behinds.
