Name the SINGLE from two lines.
MUST have been a single - album tracks are too obscure.

Kicking off with (easy starter):

'Put a gun against his head,
Pulled my trigger now he's dead'

Queen - Bohemian Rhapsody. What do I win?

Me next...OK, I'll try not to be too obscure.

It's cold outside, and the paint's peeling off of my walls
There's a man outside in a long coat smoking a cigarette.

Need a new one:

A heart that's full up like a landfill.
A job that slowly kills you.

You can see it in the headlines, You hear it everyday.
They say they're gonna stop it, But it doesn't go away.

That would be Bittersweet Symphony by The Verve now wouldn't it.

One for 80s fans:

So shut, shut your mouth, cause I'm not listening anyhow
I've had enough, enough of you, enough to last a lifetime through
