Dead Teen Songs or Teenage Death Music

Lyrics for my Dead teen song webpage.


Arthur - Hoodoo Gurus
(D. Faulkner / R. Radalj)

Arthur played the bass.
He had an angel's face.
Jiving with the Hoodoos, man,
No-one could take his place
No, No, No!
He needed extra cash
So he drove his brother's cab.
The day we heard the news, you know
It really hit us bad.
Yeah, Yeah, Yeah!
That was the day that Arthur died.

A black gelato van
Finished for the day,
Met with Arthur's taxi head-on
Down St. Kilda way
(By the Prince Of Wales).
That was the way that Arthur died
Upon the day that Arthur died.

Adam's Song  by  Blink 182

I never thought I'd die alone
I laughed the loudest who'd have known?
I traced the cord back to the wall
No wonder it was never plugged in at all
I took my time, I hurried up
The choice was mine I didnt think enough
I'm too depressed to go on
You'll be sorry when Im gone
I never conquered, rarely came
16 just held such better days
Days when I still felt alive
We couldn't wait to get outside
The world was wide, too late to try
The tour was over, I'd survived
I couldn't wait til I got home
To pass the time in my room alone
I never thought I'd die alone
Another six months I'll be unknown
Give all my things to my friends
You'll never set foot in my room again
You'll close it off, board it up
Remember the time I spilled the cup
Of apple juice in the hall
Please tell mom this is not her fault
I never conquered, rarely came
Tomorrow just holds such better days
Days when I can still felt alive
When I can't wait to get outside
The world is wide, the time goes by
The tour is over, I've survived
I can't wait til I get home
To pass the time in my room alone


Asleep by the Smiths

Sing me to sleep
Sing me to sleep
I'm tired and I
I want to go to bed

Sing me to sleep
Sing me to sleep
And then leave me alone
Don't try to wake me in the morning
'Cause I will be gone
Don't feel bad for me
I want you to know
Deep in the cell of my heart
I will feel so glad to go


Sing me to sleep
Sing me to sleep
I don't want to wake up
On my own anymore


Sing to me
Sing to me
I don't want to wake up
On my own anymore


Don't feel bad for me
I want you to know
Deep in the cell of my heart
I really want to go


There is another world
There is a better world
Well, there must be
Well, there must be
Well, there must be
Well, there must be
Well ...


Bye bye
Bye bye
Bye ...


ANGELICA - The Litter
(Weil/Mann)

Each night I meant to say
I missed her through the day
But I'd forget it
I never said it

I passed the flower shop
Lord knows I meant to stop
But I said tomorrow
Perhaps tomorrow

	Tomorrow there'd be time
	There'd always be another spring
	Time to make her laughter ring
	Time to give her everything

		Angelica, my Angelica
		There's so much you never knew
		So much I always meant to say
		And do, for you, for you
		Angelica

And then the cold winds came
And when I spoke her name
And felt her near me
She couldn't hear me

Her shadow had been cast
Too many springs had passed
For Angelica
Sweet Angelica

	Now in my solitude
	I tend the flowers that I buy
	As they slowly fade and die
	Watered by the tears I cry

		for my Angelica, my Angelica
		There's so much you never knew
		So much I always meant to say
		And do, for you, for you
		Angelica
		Angelica
		Angelica
		Angelica

All Apologies - Nirvana

What else should I be
All apologies
What else should I say
Everyone is gay
What else could I write
I don't have the right
What else should I be
All apologies

In the sun
In the sun I feel as one
In the sun
In the sun
I'm married
buried

I wish I was like you
Easily amused
Find my nest of salt
Everything is my fault
I'll take all the blame
Aqua seafoam shame
Sunburn with freezerburn
Choking on the ashes of her enemy
All in all we all are


Deltones - (All I Have Left Is) My Johnny's Hubcap

Please Johnny please
I don't want you to drag race

My Johnny, oh how I love him
but he is caught in a teen age trap
he couldn't turn down any drag race through town 
and now all I have left is his hubcap

Please Johnny please
stay in my tender embrace
Please Johnny please
I don't want you to drag race

My Johnny, oh I can see him
coming 'round the last lap
handsome and brave, if only he didn't wave
I'd have more of him left than his hubcap

Please Johnny please
stay in my tender embrace
Please Johnny please
I don't want you to drag race

My Johnny, oh how I'll miss him
and although he and my dreams lay in scrap
I'll do what he'd expect and wear it around my neck
My Johnny's, my Johnny's hubcap

Please Johnny please
stay in my tender embrace
Please Johnny please
I don't want you to drag race


Gilbert O'Sullivan - Alone Again (Naturally)

In a little while from now,
If I'm not feeling any less sour
I promised myself to treat myself
And visit a nearby tower,
And climbing to the top,
Will throw myself off
In an effort to make it clear to who
Ever what it's like when your shattered
Left standing in the lurch, at a church
Where people 're saying,
"My God that's tough, she stood him up!
No point in us remaining.
May as well go home."
As I did on my own,
Alone again, naturally

To think that only yesterday,
I was cheerful, bright and gay,
Looking forward to, but who wouldn't do,
The role I was about to play
But as if to knock me down,
Reality came around
And without so much as a mere touch,
Cut me into little pieces
Leaving me to doubt,
All about God and His mercy
For if He really does exist
Why did He desert me
In my hour of need?
I truly am indeed,
Alone again, naturally

It seems to me that
There are more hearts
Broken in the world
That can't be mended
Left unattended
What do we do? What do we do?

(instrumental break)

Now looking back over the years,
And what ever else that appears
I remember I cried when my father died
Never wishing to have cried the tears
And at sixty-five years old,
My mother, God rest her soul,
Couldn't understand, why the only man
She had ever loved had been taken
Leaving her to start with a heart
So badly broken
Despite encouragement from me
No words were ever spoken
And when she passed away
I cried and cried all day
Alone again, naturally
Alone again, naturally

Elvis Costello - Alison

Oh it's so funny to be seeing you after so long, girl.
And with the way you look I understand
that you are not impressed.
But I heard you let that little friend of mine
take off your party dress.
I'm not going to get too sentimental
like those other sticky valentines,
'cause I don't know if you've been loving somebody.
I only know it isn't mine.
Alison, I know this world is killing you.
Oh, Alison, my aim is true.

Well I see you've got a husband now.
Did he leave your pretty fingers lying
in the wedding cake?
You used to hold him right in your hand.
I'll bet he took all he could take.
Sometimes I wish that I could stop you from talking
when I hear the silly things that you say.
I think somebody better put out the big light,
cause I can't stand to see you this way.

Alison, I know this world is killing you.
Oh, Alison, my aim is true.
My aim is true.
