Here is the M*A*S*H theme song  as I recall it without a recording.
I am sorry if I made a mistake in the words.  By the way the
lyricist was 13 when he wrote it.

Suicide is Painless

Through early morning fog I see
The visions of the things to be 
The pains that are withheld for me
I realize that I can see

That suicide is painless
It brings on many changes
And I can take or leave it as I please

The sword of time will pierce our skin
It does not hurt as it digs in
But as it works its way on in
The pain goes stronger watch me grin

And suicide is painless
It brings on many changes 
And I can take or leave it as I please

The game of life is hard to play
I'm goin' to lose it anyway
The losin' card I'll someday lay
So here is all I have to say

That suicide is painless 
It brings on many changes 
And I can take or leave it as I please

One time a brave man requested me
To answer questions that are deep
Is it to be or not to be
And I replyed oh why ask me?

And suicide is painless
It brings on many changes
And I can take or leave it as I please
And you can do the same thing if you please.
