Yes,,"Suicide is painlesss" written by the Director's son
Lyrics
John Altman
(Oops,,,Mike Altman,,,doh:)
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 please.

Absolutely. The theme song for the M.A.S.H. TV show was taken from the movie of the same name. The song is titles "Suicide is Painless".

Yes, I remember MASH very well. When I was little my dad watched it allllll the time and so did one of my old roommates.
And yes, the theme song is Suicide is Painless - I can hear it in my head right now. Did you see the Family Guy movie where Stewie and Brian got wasted and Stewie sang the song? That was hillarious!

The TV version mostly played the music , Suicide is Painless, but the movie (also MASH) actually had the lyrics.
