Galaxy Song (2:43)
From Sings and 1 other release
The Galaxy Song is an upbeat if somewhat nihilistic song from the movie Monty Python’s The Meaning of Life, later released on the album Monty Python Sings. The song appears about halfway through the movie, when Eric Idle climbs out of a refrigerator and begins singing. The lyrics include a number of astronomical facts, and (within the limits imposed by creative licence), the figures tend to be tolerably accurate.
In scientist Paul Kohlmiller’s analysis of the facts presented in The Galaxy Song, the final line “‘Cause there’s bugger-all down here on Earth.” is footnoted by his observation: “An unassailable truth.” In British English, the phrase “bugger all” means “nothing”

Monty Python – Galaxy Song
Whenever life gets you down, Mrs.Brown
And things seem hard or tough
And people are stupid, obnoxious or daft
And you feel that you've had quite enough
Monty Python
