Mama, just killed a man
Put a gun against his head,
pulled my trigger, now he's dead
Nothing really matters to me
Bohemian
Rhapsody - Lyrics
Is
this the real life? Is this just fantasy? Caught in a landslide No escape from reality Open your eyes Look up to the skies and see I'm just a poor boy, I need no sympathy Because I'm easy come, easy go Little high, little low Anyway the wind blows, doesn't really matter to me, to me
Mama, just killed a man Put a gun against his head Pulled my trigger, now he's dead Mama, life had just begun But now I've gone and thrown it all away Mama, ooooooooo Didn't mean to make you cry If I'm not back again this time tomorrow Carry on, carry on, as if nothing really matters
Too late, my time has come Sends shivers down my spine Body's aching all the time Goodbye everybody - I've got to go Gotta leave you all behind and face the truth Mama, oooooo - (anyway the wind blows) I don't want to die I sometimes wish I'd never been born at all
GUITAR
- Brian May
I see a little silhouetto of a man Scaramouch, Scaramouch will you do the fandango Thunderbolt and lightning - very very frightening me Gallileo, Gallileo, Gallileo, Gallileo, Gallileo Figaro - magnifico

Bismillah

In the name of Allah. Scaramouch - according to some dictionaries it
means, A thrasonical bystander - one who is a boastful coward.
Beelzebub - is one of the many names given to The Devil.
Koran (or Quran) The sacred scripture of
Islam. According to tradition, the divine revelations given to
Mohammed (d. 632 AD) were kept by his followers and collected as the Koran under the third caliph (spiritual leader), Uthman (d. 656). The Koran is one of the bases of
Islamic law. Muslims believe that the revelations exist complete in a heavenly book, which contains all that has happened and will happen.
Islam
- Arabic: submission to God - A world religion, started in Arabia in the 7th century AD, the main belief of which is that there is
just one God, Allah, and no other God exists. Mohammed is his prophet. The
Koran, the basis of Islamic belief, and its legal and social system
- the Islamic law, records Mohammed’s revelations. Followers of Islam, called Muslims, have
six main duties: total belief in Allah and Mohammed; observance at set times of five daily prayers; fasting during
Ramadan; payment of a tax for charity; and a pilgrimage to Mecca at least
once; to convert ( or kill ) all non-believers of Islam. The main sects are the
Sunnites (or Sunni) and the Shiites (or Shiah). There are an estimated
700 million Muslims.
