NOFX - The Man I Killed Lyrics
As they tightly strap me in, give me lethal injection
I've just a few moments to live, I've no remorse for what I did
It was for the benefit of man, I made the utmost sacrifice
Before more damage could be done I took his life
Beady eyes rolled back in head, the body dropped from the poison
They could incapacitate me, but could not erase my sneer
I heard a thousand people screaming, I know three billion others cheered
He was gone, and I would soon be
Executed by the state, all appeals would be in vain
I was not criminally insane, in fact I was found to be
An otherwise caring and respectable member of society
A minor threat except for that one man I killed
There's a priest kneeling next to me, he asks me if I realize
I was going straight to hell, and he thought that I should know
That the man I killed's replacement planned this whole scenario
And what I did would make no difference

NOFX The Man I Killed Comments
amazing video
Haha cool outro
noice job mate
Great job, really nice fit! Kept up with the song spot on, very cool!
Fucking love this song
I di coi?
Loved how the jets flying in went perfectly with the guitar. Also at the end when you run out of credit was the pose of the figure alluding to either minor threat's selftitled or out come the wolves by rancid?
Was a indeed a Minor Threat reference :)
You'll notice it first shows up at 0:48 going along with the lyrics.
hey mate, check this version of the song --> https://youtu.be/uAv_D4QxUKo
Trump 2020!
A minor threat... Except for that 1 that I killed
That music video couldnt have been any better great animation and depicting the whole story
I know this is about Bush, but we can apply a lot, if not more, to Trump the Clown.
Nice work mate👠
wait this isnt an official MV? seems so right
Maybe next time kill two birds with two darts ?
the balloon dude with the dart gun cured by depression
The only problem with this song is it isn’t long enough
Years ago the president of Venezuela died, the vice took his place and turned out to be much worse.
Yes I agree that in you killed a world leader is not the solution. Caus here in Holland the whole gouvernement is rotten and corrupt. And they act like theire one of the best country in europe. But infact they are the best criminals of the whole world. And like to steel of the poor People. And are good in raping and killing so fuck all gouvernement
Such a great album. NOFX is unusual: the newer the album, the easier I can listen start to finish without skipping any songs. Wolves in Wolves Clothing and The War on Errorism are good examples.
You timed the airplanes at the funeral to the pick slide and their trails looks like guitar strings. Beautiful :)
Always nice when someone notices those details ^^
Mark Arandjus I know what you mean. Kinda planning on making music and videos for it for a living. Political stuff always gets me hyped ^^ what programs do you use?
Well this was just plain old Flash, but for editing like the Dark Knight trilogy video on my channel or for videos that I make at work I use Adobe Premiere :)
This is fucking incredible
This video is super applicable right now....
Joel Numainville it always has been.
Awesome work man! Keep it up
Go Trump! :P
fuck Trump!!!
Donald trump ??????? : ) ; ) ....please.....
Well this is pretty applicable to our current situation
Everyone is saying that same thing nowadays, but its been like that for much longer than you think.
It really isnt, cus killing trump would make things worse. Pence would be in power.
Jefe s Yeah, but that’s a part of the song too though. It would still be applicable.
@Addison N true
better dump trump before the man i killed does happend
Oops, too late!
There will be a punk revival because of this election.
PunkInDrublic98 You can't revive what is already alive.
Back from a year, and man if this song was great to sing to then, it sure fuckin is now. Local scene has popped off too
dude you did an awesome job with this man
Anyone guitarists or drummers want to start a band with me in Florida? With this shitty election and our future shitty president we'll have a lot to write about.
Some intelligent man will buy the copyright of this song because this is gonna be really relevant after 2016, I bet.
Facu Schauerte The song is already owned by NOFX, what are you saying?
This is a pretty awesome video, I gotta say. Simple, but it gets the point across, and fits the art style of the album as an added bonus. Good job if you're the one who made it
I am, I sometimes think about remaking it for HD, but I don't think it would catch on as this one did for some reason. Then again, looking at this election cycle, the next US president is sure to suck :P
Hd! Hd! We want it!
@Mark Arandjus please remake. It would be amazing.
what's the second song called?
"Flossing a Dead Horse"
Good Job on this vid!
This is a great video! Well done!
This is just awesome!
It's good to see so many recent comments so many years after this album was made. Gives me faith that punk is still alive and kickin'
+Luke Horror I've tried to show these guys to some of my friends and they don't even try to give it a chace. I know that they would agree with what Fat Mike is saying, but they won't even give it a shot because of the music...which, in my opinion, is pretty bad ass too!
Awesome video!
It's like a Prison Break story in one song
What's the name of the song at the end?
\
+Rapha Flores It literally says it at the end. But, "Flossing a Dead Horse" - NOFX
love ^0^ thanks mr. plouf and the song creator
Yeah, thanks mr.plouf ^^
unecomplette Huuuum ! A la fraiiiiise ! :D
make moooore i NNEED MORE
Love this song
Aw newgrounds....NOFX.... its like the early 2000's all over again
Amazing video man :D congrats \m/
Amazing video man :D congrats \m/
Hell cant be much worse than this place called ohio...
Maybe satan will smoke a joint with me in his lava Jacuzzi.
0:39 Enlarge your penis lol
Heh, I forgot about that one.
I wish someone did this to bush.
you have to specify alot of prime ministers in the world, spain, monaco, Portugal etc
@BananaMasterRace true, a lot of people would still be alive
@All Omen UK because Queen
Either I kill the Prime Minister and everyone in parliament or
Queen banishes parliament
@BananaMasterRace holy shit it took you more than 4 months to say that? xD
@All Omen Never really paid attention to this through notfications because it was just "someone liked your comment" until MLG Oatmeal replied to me.
Awesome job.
P-e-r-f-e-c-t :)
pretty cool animation dude you ;)
Excellent work. Great vid.
Pay the man NOFX.
i see what you did there
This is sick, good job.
Song at the end is "Flossing a Dead Horse", sorry I can't reply to you guys 'cause of this shitty new comment system. Maybe this will work @Mark Arandjus @FuckingWeasel
What is the song at 1:21 ?
When he says minor threat the guy is doing the Minor threat album cover pose lol
did you just read the title and post? id rip this comment apart line by line but mark arandjus pretty much nailed it. except i like how you point out "looks like they are just getting rich to me" because that's just inaccurate. research the history of NOFX.
You nailed it! People is so stupid they can't get the mesage.
This fucking rips. Nice
Great work, you've done well. I realy enjoyed it.
this is probably the best thing i've seen all year! im watching it again.... and then again... and when my brother comes home im showing him too... and then i'll watch it again once more...
good job broseph. Im an animator in new york. i appreciate the work you put in. thanks for sharing.
nice video :)
It's like this song was made for Link from Prison Break
It would have been better if we killed him then, but now works great too!
Amazing video for an amazing song ! NOFX rule ! Great job man ! Cheerz from Greece !
False, George Bush was only a puppet.
great video dude!
bad ass video man
You must feel pretty stupid...
Great video!
awesome video
You are part of the problem.
Sup dude, good to see the video got a bunch of views!
Are you a moron?
reminds me of JFK and obviously troy davis
You need to make more!
now it's the official video
still punk
don't feed the troll.......
Good video
I like the Minor Threat reference at 0:48
Make more. Many many more. Try something for fatter than Albert? :)
Just because you have the right to have your own opinion doesn't mean it has any value.
did you stop before the end the point of the song is that doing something like the guy did in the song is pointless because it would not change anything
So they're "uniformed teenagers" if they don't come to the same conclusion that you did?
I regretfully inform you that you've missed the point of the song.
The band hasn't gone out and become martyrs because the twist at the end is that doing so would have 'no significance at all' and would be pointless, since removing a leader of a corrupt system does not remove the corrupt system.
Also, the irony of you accusing people of a jihad while wishing me and NOFX a terrible death because we made something that clashes with your beliefs will be lost on no one.
hooray, jihad for uninformed teenagers. What irresponsible pricks. I honestly love most of their music but this is absolutely ridiculous regardless of the target and I hope the uploader/band members suffer the fate of hypothetical man in the video and realize no one cares when they're gone. Furthermore, if the band is so righteous in their cause, why haven't they done what they threaten and became martyrs? Sounds like they're just getting rich to me...
Mooooooron ahead!
edgy music for edgy teenagers.
One of the smartest comment I have read here on Youtube. If people wasn't stupid then stupid music would die...
That's amazing dude. Hey, great job! :D
