Today, for SLS, Helen has asked us to find songs about “Danger”. Thanks, Helen!
Interesting prompt for right here at Christmas time. I had to look up some, to get an idea. There were a lot of titles I’d never heard of, and then there were songs about dangerous women, end of the world scenarios, and all sorts of other dangers.
Anyway…I chose this one. It was a YouTube video that was thought up by an Australian company and was to be a public service announcement campaign for their Metro train.
It’s a cute animated video, highlighting lots of dangers that a person should never do, or you might die. Good advice presented in a humorous way.

“Dumb Ways to Die”, sung by Emily Lubitz and Ollie McGill, of the band, Tangerine Kitty, was uploaded to YouTube in 2012. It was written by John Mescall, and produced by Cinnamon Darwall, and animated by Julian Frost.

Set fire to your hair
Poke a stick at a grizzly bear
Eat medicines that’s out of date
Use your private parts as piranha baitDumb ways to die, so many dumb ways to dieGet your toast out with a fork
Do your own electrical work
Teach yourself how to fly
Eat a two week old unrefrigerated pieDumb ways to die, so many dumb ways to die
Invite a psycho-killer inside
Scratch your drug dealer’s brand new ride
Take your helmet off in outer space
Use your clothes dryer as a hiding place
Dumb ways to die, so many dumb ways to die
Keep a rattlesnake as pet
Sell both the kidneys on the internet
Eat a tube of superglue
“I wonder what’s this red button do?”
Dumb ways to die, so many dumb ways to die
Dress up like a moose during hunting season
Disturb a nest of wasps for no good reason
Stand on the edge of a train station platform
Drive around the boom gates at a level crossing
Run across the tracks between the platforms
They may not rhyme but they’re quite possibly
Dumbest ways to die ie
Dumbest ways to die
Dumbest ways to die
So many dumb
So many dumb ways to die
Be safe around trains. A message from Metro
