Before you ask, No. Goat Boy is not about satanism or that charcter on SNL. It is a tribute to my favorite comedian who died in 1994. Bill Hicks was a prophet, visionary, and a comedy genius. He didn't tell jokes, per se. He told the truth about the world the way he saw it, and people tended to find it funny. He smoked, drank, and did all the drugs you can think of, and probably some stuff you can't. He died of pancreatic cancer at the age of 32. Do yourself a favor and check out his website, still maintainded by his best friend, Kevin Booth.

Think for yourself, be spontaneous, and don't believe ANYTHING you do not know for yourself.
"I left in love, in laughter, and in truth and wherever truth, love and laughter abide, I am there in spirit" - Bill Hicks, 1994 (as read at his funeral)
"The world is like a ride at an amusement park. And when you choose to go on it, you think that it's real because that's how powerful our minds are. There is a lot denial in this ride, the ride, in fact, is made up of denial "All things work in Goatboy's favour". The world is like a ride at an amusement park. It goes up and down and round and round. It has thrills and chills and it's very brightly coloured and it's very loud and it's fun, for a while. Some people have been on the ride for a long time and they begin to question, is this real, or is this just a ride? And other people have remembered, and they come back to us, they say, "hey - don't worry, don't be afraid, ever, because, this is just a ride..." And we... kill those people. Ha ha "Shut him up." "We have a lot invested in this ride. Shut him up. Look at my furrows of worry. Look at my big bank account and my family. This just has to be real." Just a ride. But we always kill those good guys who try and tell us that, you ever notice that? And let the demons run amok. Jesus mudered; Martin Luther King mudered; Malcolm X murdered; Gandhi murdered; John Lennon murdered; Reagan.... wounded. But it doesn't matter because: It's just a ride. And we can change it anytime we want. It's only a choice. No effort, no work, no job, no savings and money. A choice, right now, between fear and love.
The eyes of fear want you to put bigger locks on your doors, buy guns, close yourself off. The eyes of love, instead, see all of us as one. Here's what we can do to change the world, right now, to a better ride. Take all that money that we spend on weapons and defences each year and instead spend it feeding and clothing and educating the poor of the world, which it would many times over, not one human being excluded, and we could explore space, together, both inner and outer, forever, in peace."
