suicide in pop music

[Jon Buser]

Here is a song that I thought the readers of net.suicide would
enjoy:

Amplifier
by the DB's

Danny went home and killed himself last night,
She'd taken everything, She'd taken everything,
She took his cash, She took his checks,
She took the soda pop there was nothing left,
She took the love letters out of his desk!
She left his amplifier.

Danny went home and killed himself last night,
She'd taken everything, She'd taken everything,
She took his car, She took is bike,
She took everything she thought he liked,
And what she couldn't take she found a way to break!
She left his amplifier.

An amplifier's just wood and wire,
And wire and wood don't do any good
When your heart is racing like a wildfire,
And all you've got to show for it's
An amplifier.

She took his gun, She took his knife,
He took his drugs, They took his life,
She took it all in one big hall!
She left his amplifier.

Danny went home and killed himself last night.
