No, I'm Not Putting Up Something from Pink Floyd at Pompeii and You Can't Make Me!!!

So I've just spent two days in Pompeii, and am heading off to Herculaneum today (have I mentioned I'm on vacation in Italy?)

And it occurred to me that THIS is the only rock song I can think of, top of my head, that features the word "volcano" in the lyric.

    The Band has a tune called "Volcano" on their Cahoots album.

    Don't have a volcano tune to list, but "She's So Cold" is one of my favorite Stones tunes...

    I was too late to suggest "Volcano Girls" by Veruca Salt -- the first single from their second album.

    Not familiar with lyrics to the above but ? was lyrics with volcano not song titles :) Beck and Damien Rice have titles with the word of the day too.

    For the record (because I don't like the song): "Volcano Divers" from Guided By Voices: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cx59qQ0pHa8

    "Ingrid Bergman" by Woody Guthrie and Billy Bragg doesn't actually use the word volcano, and it isn't really rock, BUT it's definitely volcanically active.

    If you don't know this song go listen now. Money back guarantee!
    And it's an ITALIAN volcano!
