" Fuck the Pain Away " became a popular choice when film and TV soundtracks were in need of a catchy but objectionable song . It was used for a key scene in Sofia Coppola 's 2003 film '' Lost in Translation '' . In the scene , Bill Murray 's character glumly sits in a Japanese strip club as women pole dance to the song . It is used in the 2002 horror film '' My Little Eye '' , the 2006 reality film '' Jackass Number Two '' , the 2011 romantic comedy '' Getting That Girl '' , the 2011 action film '' Drive Angry '' , and the 2013 gross out film '' Wetlands '' , as well as being sung by Bollo in '' The Mighty Boosh Live '' . It also appeared in an episode of the thirteenth season of '' South Park '' , " Butters ' Bottom Bitch " . The '' 30 Rock '' episode " Future Husband " shows Tina Fey 's character Liz Lemon using the song as a ringtone . The song also appeared in end credits of the '' True Blood '' season 6 episode of the same name . The song was also used in the Canadian show Letterkenny , S05E01 . Finally the song appeared in the Emmy award and Golden Globe winning Tv-series The Handmaid 's Tale , S01E04
