有一些樂團的音樂是有自毀傾向的，相信英國London 的Black Box Recorder 是其中一隊。還記得他們在MV裏如何扮撞車測試的dummies 。今天又落雨又落雹，陰陰沉沉，播一播favourite playlist, random 地播，就播到他們最黑暗亦是我最喜愛的Child Psychology。

歌是這樣唱的，Life is unfair, kill yourself or get over it.

I stopped talking when I was six years old

I didn’t want anything more to do with the outside world

I was happy being quiet

But of course they wouldn’t leave me alone

My parents tried every trick in the book

From speech therapists to child psychologists

They even tried bribery

I could have anything, as long as I said it out loud

Life is unfair, kill yourself or get over it

Life is unfair, kill yourself or get over it

Of course this episode didn’t last forever

I’d made my point and it was time to move on

To peel away the next layer of deceit

And see what new surprises lay in store

My school report said I showed no interest

‘A disruptive influence’ I felt sorry for them in a way

And when they finally expelled me

It didn’t mean a thing

Life is unfair, kill yourself or get over it

Life is unfair, kill yourself or get over it

(“At that time she stopped what she was doing, she stopped playing…

she stared, she had the facial grimicing…

and then the psychiatrist was saying, “Julie, Julie, can you hear me?

Can you open your eyes? Can you stick out your tongue?”

And all of a sudden, Julie struck out”)

The November when I came home the Christmas decorations were already up

Spray on snow, coloured flashing lights

And an artificial tree that played Silent Night

Over and over again

My parents welcomed me with loving arms

But within an hour were back at each others throats

Normal, happy childhood back on course

Batteries not included

Life is unfair, kill yourself or get over it

Life is unfair, kill yourself or get over it

Life is unfair, kill yourself or get over it

Life is unfair, kill yourself or get over it
