Songs based around dangerous situations?

Birdy's mention just now of Hairdresser on Fire:

... made me think of Girlfriend in a Coma.

There are a lot of dangerous situations out there for characters in Morrissey/The Smiths songs! (Yes, I know the 'Hairdresser on Fire' is not actually burning up, but bear with me here.)

What are some other songs that are based around (preferably in the title) dangerous situations? Tongue-in-cheek, obviously, is quite all right!

Update:

Hey, all -- and no probs, Birdy! 'Girlfriend in a Coma' never stops being darkly funny, so thanks for spurring the rewatch.
