"B****r me its cold"
from the classic Amiga game Cannon Fodder.
Or from a game character i.e.
"Arrgghh I dont want to die!"
from any of the numerous cowardly sprites in Perfect Dark.

C64 and the Spectrum 128 version music was groovy though (although the plinkity plonk speccy 48k remix left a lot to be desired.)
If so, remember the famous (and crap speech) lines of "Ghostbusters !!!" when they caught a ghost and "He slimed me !" when they missed ? ;-))
Soldier in one of the levels of Beach Head 2 on the C64 - as he gets mown down by a hoooge machine gun.
One of the first times they had quality speech in a C64 game, and it had such an impact that I remember it to this day! (Showing my age again.)
Closely followed by "You can't hurt me!" by the enemy in the final level of the same game, as you threw sticks at him across an underground river!
Chrast! being a personnel favourite. or Caraal.
Also in Zelda:majoras MAsk the people in the majors office. Huh! oraghhh!
