I wanna die just like jesus christ
I wanna die on a bed of spikes
I wanna die come see paradise
I wanna die just like jesus christ
I wanna die just like J.F.K.
I wanna die on a sunny day
I wanna die just like J.F.K.
I wanna die in the U.S.A.
I wanna die
I wanna die
I wouldn't sell my soul
But I'd hang for this
I gotta get my goal
Cause I'd hang for this
I wanna die on a bed of spikes
I wanna die come see paradise
I wanna die just like jesus christ
I wanna die just like J.F.K.
I wanna die on a sunny day
I wanna die just like J.F.K.
I wanna die in the U.S.A.
I wanna die
I wanna die
I wouldn't sell my soul
But I'd hang for this
I gotta get my goal
Cause I'd hang for this

This song is perfect. The whole doomed romantic outlaw myth of rock'n'roll nailed in 11 lines. Death / suicide, iconographic invocation of Jesus and JFK, universals that mean something to everyone, JFK with the associations to big fat convertable american cars, America the birth palce of rock'n'roll itself, damnation, the loss of one's soul, redemption ('die go see paradise'), rock'n'roll itself ('with the radio on). Everything is there. Except they've not managed to get Coke in this time. Genius.
