This song pre-dates the one with the same title by Suicidal Tendencies and we played several shows with them before theirs came out. Just saying...
lyrics
Suicidal Maniac
Got no job got no money
Got no one to call my honey
Left sitting here all alone
Playing with my rock hard bone
I’m not thinking about myself
Mine or anybody else’s fucking health
Don’t care if I cease to exist
No matter what they say I’ll still persist
I’m a suicidal maniac (4x)
Recklessness –n- carelessness
Some people say I’m a total mess
Doing things just for the thrill
Not worth worrying if I get killed
Living life faster than I can handle
Don’t ever just wanna sit back and mellow
Ain’t gonna listen to no dumb song
Kill myself ‘cause I feel down
I’m a suicidal maniac (4x)
Why must I die? Why must I die?
If I die it’ll be ok, It won’t matter anyway
This here world will still spin on
And I’ll have tried to change it by word and song
Don’t live life in fear of death
You hold back you’ll come up short
Life’s full of things to experience
Get it all it’s so intense
UK82-inspired hardcore punk from Christchurch, New Zealand, gruff and fast and economical and, of course, righteously pissed. Bandcamp New & Notable Jun 16, 2020
The Minneapolis band add a horn section, a running surrealist allegory about walls, and an occasional nod to the elegiac to their electroshocked post-punk. Bandcamp Album of the Day Mar 4, 2024
A necessary reissue of everything venerated hardcore band Angel Hair ever released, with breakneck time signatures that turn on a dime. Bandcamp New & Notable Jan 10, 2024
