Monty Pyhton's Meaning of Life

Here is something to refelct on a rainy sunday afternoon :)

There's everything in this movie, everything that fits.
From the Meaning of Life in the universe, To girls with great big tits.

We've got movie stars and foreign cars, Explosions and the lot
Filmed as only we know how, On the budget that we've got.

We spent a fortune on locations And quite a bit on drink
And there's ever the odd philosophical joke, Just to make you buggers think.

Yet some parts are as serious And as deep as you could wish
But largely it's all tits and ass And quite a bit of fish.

Other bits are fairly childish And some are frankly rude
But at least we've got a lot of nice girls All banging around in the nude.

So take your seats, enjoy yourselves And let's just hope it's funny
Because it's not only done to make you laugh But to make us lots of money.

So sit back and have a good time With your boyfriend or your wife
Relax and just enjoy yourself For this is the Meaning of Life
