Won't start on a dead battery.
Needs some juice to run the iggy.
Take it out and charge it.

How old is the battery and how long has it been sitting?

You really should pull it out and charge it. You can buy a cheap charger for $10-15.

It may also be totally dead and can't be charged...

What do you mean it has it's own spark? Nevermind what happened this morning, it's broken now, right? ;)
Try this: if you give contact and turn lights on - are they on? At all? Brake light works? Parking light via ignition lock? Does any light work? If NO to all above - battery is dead and you can't even push start. 60mph push - maybe.
You CAN jump it as is with jumper cables, but no guarantees it will keep runnin' after you disconnect jumpers. It might die and leave you someplace even if it does keep running.
