The Lyrics
I must admit my guardian angel has been busy. I have done all kind of stupidities in my life, yet I'm still alive. But let's assume I have done something in a wrong way? Here is a list on some of the ways I could have already been killed. Here's the original song.
[Very young:]
Try to pull tail off your dog
Stick a fork in electric plug
Run in nettle bush playing hide-and-seek
Go to riverside to have a leak
Dumb ways to die
Suzy's dumb ways to die
Dumb ways to die-ie-ie
There's so many dumb ways to die
[Childhood:]
Ride a bike upon a fence
Climb up that tree immense
Try to cross the railroad track in haste
I wonder what that red paint would taste?
Dumb ways to die
Suzy's dumb ways to die
Dumb ways to die-ie-ie
There's so many dumb ways to die
[Youth:]
Go skiing on a slope marked black
Sail across the fairway on starboard tack
Mix randomly the stuffs in chemistry lab
Catch a live wire with a really good grab -
Dumb ways to die
Suzy's dumb ways to die
Dumb ways to die-ie-ie
There's so many dumb ways to die
[Young adult:]
Play electric guitar in rain
Teach yourself how to fly a plane
Play tennis in blast furnace casting house
and go to rolling mill wearing neat loose blouse
Dumb ways to die
Suzy's dumb ways to die
Dumb ways to die-ie-ie
There's so many dumb ways to die
[Adult:]
Go sailing a yacht during Autumnal stormy season
Jump off a decent airplane for no good reason
Have a kendo match with real swords of steel
Go SCUBA diving and try to outdive a seal
Go playing ice hockey with no helmet for real
They may not rhyme but they're quite possibly
The dumbest ways to die
The dumbest ways to die
The dumbest ways to die
Suzy's many dumb
Suzy's many dumb ways to die
die die die die die die die die
Try to pull tail off your dog
Stick a fork in electric plug
Run in nettle bush playing hide-and-seek
Go to riverside to have a leak
Dumb ways to die
Suzy's dumb ways to die
Dumb ways to die-ie-ie
There's so many dumb ways to die
[Childhood:]
Ride a bike upon a fence
Climb up that tree immense
Try to cross the railroad track in haste
I wonder what that red paint would taste?
Dumb ways to die
Suzy's dumb ways to die
Dumb ways to die-ie-ie
There's so many dumb ways to die
[Youth:]
Go skiing on a slope marked black
Sail across the fairway on starboard tack
Mix randomly the stuffs in chemistry lab
Catch a live wire with a really good grab -
Dumb ways to die
Suzy's dumb ways to die
Dumb ways to die-ie-ie
There's so many dumb ways to die
[Young adult:]
Play electric guitar in rain
Teach yourself how to fly a plane
Play tennis in blast furnace casting house
and go to rolling mill wearing neat loose blouse
Dumb ways to die
Suzy's dumb ways to die
Dumb ways to die-ie-ie
There's so many dumb ways to die
[Adult:]
Go sailing a yacht during Autumnal stormy season
Jump off a decent airplane for no good reason
Have a kendo match with real swords of steel
Go SCUBA diving and try to outdive a seal
Go playing ice hockey with no helmet for real
They may not rhyme but they're quite possibly
The dumbest ways to die
The dumbest ways to die
The dumbest ways to die
Suzy's many dumb
Suzy's many dumb ways to die
die die die die die die die die

My brother drove a car in a demolition derby. He is also a volunteer firefighter and paramedic. His son jumped out of a plane just to prove he could. I do know a guy who fought duels with real swords and almost lost a finger. He was blown off his horse while filming a scene for "Rambo III". Saw a girl hanging from the edge of an open elevator shaft while filming a stunt for a dumb horror film that was never finished. Learned later that she had broken her arm earlier that evening and didn't tell anyone. I continue to eat at McDonald's.
