Listen to Tommy Aldridge pounding that double bass, in 1979!

Another song that famously threatens threatens physical violence/death is Run For Your Life (Lennon/Beatles). I tried to skip over that song in the car, so my kids wouldn't have to listen to it, and my daugher said she wanted to hear the "dead little girl" song. She doesn't miss a beat.
