Quotes:

[the Surgeon General gropes Taslima's breasts]::Surgeon General of Beverly Hills: My God, they're real!

President: All right, I've heard enough. Would you explain to this foot soldier why he's going to do what we tell him to do.::Snake Plissken: What's he talking about?::Malloy: The Plutoxin Seven virus.::Brazen: Genetically engineered. 100% pure death.::Malloy: It starts with a slight headache, then turns into a fever that gets worse. After a short time, you crash. You bleed out like a stuck pig. Not a pretty sight.::Snake Plissken: I get it. You figure that you inject that shit into me, and under the threat of death, I'll do whatever you say... just like in New York.::Malloy: You got it... Snake!::Snake Plissken: One question: which one of you assholes gets to die trying to stick me?::Malloy: You don't understand. It's already in you.::[Snake looks down at his hand, where it was scratched earlier]::Brazen: Catches on quick, doesn't he?

[after the President orders Snake executed]::Malloy: On my command... FIRE!::[the soldiers open fire, without effect. Malloy grabs a rifle, walks up to Snake, and swings the butt through his body]::Brazen: He's not even *here*! He's a hologram!::Snake Plissken: Catches on quick, doesn't she?

[rumble]::Snake Plissken: What's that?::Pipeline: Tsu-nami, Snake! Tsunami!

President: What's it going to be, Plissken? Them or us?::Snake Plissken: I shut down the third world, you win they lose. I shut down America, they win, you lose. The more things change, the more they stay the same.

Snake Plissken: Sad story. You got a smoke?

[to the crowd]::Cuervo Jones: I give you the death of SNAKE PLISSKEN!

Snake Plissken: By the way, who gives me the antidote?::Malloy: A medical team will be standing by.::Snake Plissken: Neither one of you?::Malloy: No.::Snake Plissken: Good!::[Snake opens fire on Malloy and Brazen with his assault rifle, but to no effect. Malloy and Brazen do not flinch or even blink]::Malloy: Ha! We thought you might try that, hotshot. That's why the first clip is loaded with blanks. Bye bye, Snake. Good luck!

President: Man is too dumb to survive L.A.::Malloy: We're holograms, Plissken.

Malloy: For God sakes, don't do it, Snake!::Snake Plissken: The name's Plissken.::[pushes the button]

I called you brazen
called you whore right to your face
and watched you silently
and publicly disgraced
I didn't notice
when you strengthened like a vice
that you were trembling
and burned beneath the ice
why don't you weep
when I hurt you?
why don't you weep
when I cut you?
you don't bleed
and the anger builds up inside
why don't you weep
when I hurt you?
why don't you weep
when I cut you?
you don't bleed
and the anger builds up inside
you said a prayer
and I betrayed you with a kiss
I never realized that all
had come to this
so keep your dignity
don't throw it all to waste
stronger feelings
than you've ever learned to face
Repeat chorus

And I, I was up past the dawn. Spots of twilight gone.
I've been hounded by the wounds that with speak, and
spittle bitter tongue.
Things eclipsing all the time. for bending more's a
lie.
And I always learn the hard-way, its instinct to be
true, an instinct to be true.
And I'm, gonna tell this world. The only difference
now. Is that I'm envisioning.
And I'm, gonna spread my wings. Cuz I'm envisioning, my
only sinking ship.
And I, I was walking on a fire. Coals beneath my feet.
The smoke has risen up. And now your sufferins' came to
Things eclipsing all the time, for bending more's a
lie.
And I always learn the hard-way, its instinct to be
true, an instinct to be true.
And I'm, gonna tell this world. The only difference
now. Is that I'm envisioning.
And I'm, gonna spread my wings. Cuz I'm envisioning, my
only sinking ship.
And oh, everywhere I go. Taken with that same old
feeling with me now, its get me through my ups and
downs.
And oh, everywhere I go. Taken with that same old
feeling with me now, its get me through my ups and
downs

I called you Brazen
Called you whore right to your face
And watched you silently
And publicly discgraced
I didn't notive
That you strenghted like a vice
That you were trembling
And burned beneath the Ice
...Ouuu Ouuu Ouuu...
[Chorus 2x]
Why don't you weep
When I hurt you
Why don't you weep
When I cut you
You don't bleed
And the anger
Builds up inside
...Na Na Na...
...Ouuu Ouuu Ouuu...
You said a prayer
I betrayed you with a kiss
You never realized
All it come to this
So keep your dignity
Don't throw it all to waste
Stronger feelings than
You've ever learned to face
...Ouuu Ouuu Ouuu...
[Chorus 2x]
Why don't you weep
When I hurt you
Why don't you weep
When I cut you
You don't bleed
And the anger
Builds up inside
...Na Na Na...
...Ouuu Ouuu Ouuu...
[Chorus... again 2x]
Why don't you weep
When I hurt you
Why don't you weep
When I cut you
You don't bleed
And the anger
Builds up inside
Ooo...
Why don't you weep no more (3x)
Why don't you weep (3x)
