Nothing too impressive...a few random thoughts that escaped my brain through my fingertips when they happened to be on the keyboard.

Tragic Teens
Honestly, there is no redemptive value in this post. I found this link when telling Cherilyn that not all songs tell the story of good girls falling for 'bad boys' or boys their parents dislike. So I told her about "Patches" and "Rag Doll." Anyway, searching for the lyrics turned up this page. Many are more contemporary, but it has songs like "Leader of the Pack" and other teen dramas. :)
Dead Teen Lyrics.
My kids will tell you that I don't like them listening to 'suicide songs' or having them ever played in the house, but, for an unknown reason bubblegum pop versions of tragic tales pass my scruples. So, if you are ever in the mood for "Teen Angel"--join me in giggling at my own tears.
