Ramones lyrics
Album: End of the Century [1980]
| Do You Remember Rock 'n' Roll Radio? | |
|
Do you remember Hullabaloo ,
Upbeat , Shindig and Ed Sullivan too?
Do you remember rock 'n' roll radio?
Do you remember rock 'n' roll radio?
Do you remember Murray the K ,
Alan Freed , and high energy?
It's the end , the end of the 70's.
It's the end , the end of the century.
Do you remember lying bed
With your covers pulled up over your head?
Radio playin' so no one can see
We need change , we need it fast
Before rock's just part of the past
'Cause lately it all sounds the same to me
Oh-oh
Will you remember Jarry Lee , John Lennon ,
T-Rex and Ol' Moulty?
It's the end , the end of the 70's.
It's the end , the end of the century.

| I'm Affected | |
|
When I look into your big brown eyes
And I feel like I'm in paradise
I want you by my side
'Cause I'm affected , 'fected
Yeah , I'm affected , 'fected
Well I'm affected
And all I want is you
Didn't know it a few years ago
But now I finally know
I want you by my side
I want you baby , baby , baby , baby
Yeah , I love you and I want you to know
Yeah , Yeah , and that's for sure
I want you by my side
'Cause I'm affected , 'fected
Yeah , I'm affected ,
Well , I'm affected , 'fected
And all I want is you

| Danny Says | |
|
Danny says we gotta go
Gotta go to Idaho
But we can't go surfin'
'Cause it's 20 below
Sound check's at 5:02
Record stores and interviews
Oh , but I can't wait
To be with you tomorrow
Baby
Oho - ho - ho , we got nowhere to go
And it may sound funny , but it's true
Hangin' out in 100 B
Watching Get Smart on TV
Thinking' about
You and me and you and me
Hangin' out in L.A.
And there's nowhere to go
It ain't Christmas if there ain't no snow
Listening to Sheena on the radio
Oh-ho oh-ho
|
| Chinese Rock | |
|
Somebody calls me on the phone
Say hey - hey is Arty home
You wanna take a walk
You wanna go cop
You wanna go get some Chinese rock
I'm livin' on a Chinesse rock
All my best things are in hock
I'm livin' on a Chinese rock
Everything is in the pawn shop
The plaster fallin' off the wall
My girlfriend cryin' in the shower stall
It's a hot as a bitch
I should've been rich
But I'm just diggin' a Chinese ditch

| The Return Of Jackie And Judy | |
|
Jackie is a punk , Judy is a runt
They went down to the Mudd Club
And they both got drunk
Oh - yeah
Jackie is a bookie , Judy's taking loans
They both came up to New York
Just to see the Ramones
Oh - yeah
And oh , I don't know why she wrote that letter
Oh no , oh no
Oh I don't no why ,
We won't forget her oh no
Jackie's playing hooky
Judy's playing pool
They both got caugh for cutting
Got to go summer school
Oh - yeah
Jackie's scalping tickets
Judy's getting harassed
They both got kicked outside
Didn't have a backstage pass
Oh - yeah
And oh , I don't know why she wrote that letter
Oh no - oh no
And oh , I don't know why ,
Don't know what's on her mind
I don't know , no I don't know
But I can't stand to see her cryin'
She's still cryin' , she ain't tryin'
She's going to get left behind
Nobody wants you , nobody wants you
|
| Let's Go | |
|
Don't wanna study on the G.I. bill
Want more action , haven't had my fill
Mercenary , fight for anyone
Fight for money
Fight for fun
Let's go
Got a country you wanna protect
But your army is more likely to detect
Hire my SMG with a full clip
On automatic it's a guaranteed hit
Let's go
Gee it's kinda scary out here
Mosquitoes are happy tonight
Mommy , Daddy , can I please come home
Even if just for one night
Let's go
Snocked how deadly we fight back
Troublemakers who attack
Mercenary , fight for anyone
Fight for money , fight for fun
Let's go

| I Can't Make It On Time | |
|
I can't make it on time
I can't make it on time
I keep tryin' and tryin'
I can't make it on time
I can't hurry and you can't wait
It doesn't matter 'cause we're already late
I can't get get off the telephone
It always rings when I'm alone
You gotta wait wait
'Cause you don't need no one
Wait wait
'Cause you know that I'm the one
You gotta wait
Hey , hey , hey
Wait

| This Ain't Havana | |
|
I had no advantage over you
There was troubles and I had 'em too
Just 'cause you're so strung out
Don't mean it can't work out
Ba-ba-banana , this ain't Havana
Do you like bananas , ba-ba-bananas
You say you're poor and uneducated
You ain't gotta chance 'cause you're hated
You're on your way to life's promotion
You hinder it with emotion
Ba-ba-banana , this ain't Havana
Do you like bananas , ba-ba-bananas

| Rock 'n' Roll High School | |
|
Well I don't care about history
Rock , rock , rock 'n' roll high school
'Cause that's no where I wanna be
Rock , rock , rock 'n' roll high school
I just wanna have some kicks
I just wanna get some chiks
Rock , rock , rock , rock , rock 'n' roll high school
Well the girls out there knock me out , you know
Rock , rock , rock 'n' roll high school
Cruisin' around in my GTO
Rock , rock , rock 'n' roll high school
I hate the teachers and the principal
Don't wanna be taught to be no fool
Rock , rock , rock 'n' roll high school
Fun fun rock 'n' roll high school
Fun fun rock 'n' roll high school
Fun fun rock 'n' roll high school
Fun fun , oh baby

| All The Way | |
|
Feeback blasting out my ears
Makes me so high
I love all the monitor men
But why are they alive?
The van is make me crazy
It's just like being in the navy
Doomsday , doomsday's coming - 1981
But until things blow
I'm gonna have some fun
The bubble's going to explode
Probably never live to get old
But I just wanna have some fun
Probably won't see no money
I just wanna have some fun
Before they throw me in the sanitarium
Feedback blasting out my ears
Makes me so high
I love all the monitor men
But why are they alive ?
Well Monte's making me crazy
It's just like being in the navy

| High Hisk Insurance | |
|
High risk insurance
The time is right
High risk insurance
The time is right
Got endurance , I was trained
I got my sights adjusted and my telescope aimed
Everybody wants an explanation
Got no love for the enemy nation
You gotta fight to stay independent
I got my pride and I'm gonna defend it
|
| Baby, I Love You | |
|
(Phil Spector/Jeff Barry/Ellie Greenwich)
Have I ever told you how good it feels to hold you
It isn't easy to explain
And tough I'm really trying
I think I may start crying
My heart can't wait another day
When you kiss me I just gotta to say
Baby I love you come on baby baby I love you
Baby I love only you
I can't live without you
I love everything about you
I can't help it if I feel this way
Oh I'm so glad I found you
I want my arms around you
I love to hear you call my name
Oh tell me that you feel the same
