Lyrics

Hello, Westerburg! Welcome to our special a**embly! Don't even call it an a**embly—it's a listen-in. (unintelligible screaming)
We all need healing and communication, so to kick it off, let's give a big welcome to the number two unsigned band in all of Ohio: Mourning in America!

Hello, Westerburg! We're here to tell you that suicide is for squares and losers; rock and roll is life! One, two, three, yeah!

Let me warn ya' bout the girl named Sue
She'll make all your nightmares come true
Late at night she invades your head
Makes you feel like you should be dead!

Stay away from me!

Miss Teenage Suicide

Teenage suicide!

Oh the misery
Miss Teenage Suicide
Teenage suicide!

When you get it, teenage—

Su-su-suicide!

She looks up with her [?] eyes

Those eyes

Never, never here to kiss her twice

That’s quite nice

She takes women, and she takes men

Oh no
Stop havoc while she kills again!

Stay away from us!

Miss Teenage Suicide

Teenage suicide!

You're too dangerous

Miss Teenage Suicide

Teenage suicide! (Woah-oh-oh-oh)

Me and you are through

Miss Teenage Suicide (Suicide)
Don't let teenage su-su-suici—

What really killed Heather, Ram, and Kurt—

(Groan)

—Secrecy. They were ashamed of what they felt and who they were inside, and they couldn't trust in their safety net. Not parents, not faculty, not even you, their friends. So if any if you are considering suicide [actress misspeaks], I want you to look around first and speak up. Share your pain! Who's first? Come on, kids, give me something to work with here!

My best friend killed herself

What is she doing?
