When in Rome, Kill Me (1989) was album by the Leeds-based pop group Cud. The first seven songs on the album are linked by short narrative segments, such that the first half of the album loosely forms a single story. In this story, it is implied that the protagonist flees Whitby to Rome after committing some crime. There he reunited with Bibi, possibly an accomplice in the crime, with whom he sleeps, but the following morning he wakes to find Bibi has left and grassed him to the police. We leave the protanonist drunk in a bar, as police sirens approach, with him rueing, "I would have got away with it, if it hadn't been for those ... meddling kids."
