THE AYATOLLAH OF ROCK 'N' ROLLAH
'I Committed Suicide Last Thursday'
This is generally considered the definitive version - it has in fact been recorded three times (each with different lyrics).
The original version was written and recorded in what The Ayatollah describes as his "confusion years". In 1993
(when out in Germany with Fußgängerzone), The Ayatollah recorded the second version in solitary confinement (the master tapes
of this version have since been lost, and the track was never released - only a remixed version by Andrew Morrison remains,
which included just the one sample of Rollah's voice). The third recording was done by The Ayatollah and his complete
"ministry". This is the version he is most content with.

I Committed Suicide Last Thursday (Preview Stream) - 3:26
I fall to my knees - I want more please
Can't take the pain; getting off this train
You're a slut of a wife - I can't take this life
I want to die soon; I'll be dead by noon
Suicide
Suicide last Thursday
Don't shoot that gun, I am the number on
You start to prey as you blow me away
This ain't no game - I long for the fame
With a noose 'round my neck, oh what the fucking heck
Suicide
Suicide last Thursday
Suicide
Suicide last Tuesday
Suicide
Suicide last Thursday
Suicide
Suicide last Wednesday
Suicide
Suicide last Thursday
Suicide
Suicide with a bloody knife
