I DON'T WANT TO GROW UP (Tom Waits/Kathleen Brennan)
(2:43)
When I'm lyin' in my bed at night
I don't wanna grow up
Nothing ever seems to turn out right
I don't wanna grow up
How do you move in a world of fog
That's always changing things
Makes wish that I could be a dog
When I see the price that you pay
I don't wanna grow up
I don't ever want to be that way
I don't wanna grow up
Seems that folks turn into things
That they never want
The only thing to live for is today
I'm gonna put a hole in my T.V. set
I don't wanna grow up
Open up the medicine chest
I don't wanna grow up
I don't wanna have to shout it out
I don't want my hair to fall out
I don't wanna be filled with doubt
I don't wanna be a good boy scout
I don't wanna have to learn to count
I don't wanna have the biggest amount
I don't wanna grow up
Well, when I see my parents fight
I don't wanna grow up
They all go out and drinkin' all night
I don't wanna grow up
I'd rather stay here in my room
Nothin' out there but sad and gloom
I don't wanna live in a big old tomb
On grand street
When I see the 5 o'clock news
I don't wanna grow up
Comb their hair and shine their shoes
I don't wanna grow up
Stay around in my old hometown
I don't wanna put no money down
I don't wanna get a big old loan
Work them fingers to the bone
I don't wanna float on a broom
Fall in love, get married then boom
How the hell did it get here so soon
I don't wanna grow up
MAKIN MONSTERS FOR MY FRIENDS (Dee Dee Ramone/Daniel
Rey) (2:33)
Everybody said so man, you could see it on T.V.
They stood there ashamed, with nowhere to go
Nobody wants them now, the kids are alright
Every day is a holiday and pushin' people around
I'm making monsters for my friends
Someone caught one I could see so myself
I had to call 254 so they wouldn't blame me
We wanted to know how much trouble there was
When we asked our daddy he said
It's just because
I'm making monsters for my friends
I don't wanna open a can of worms
And I don't want any Spagetti-O's
And I could always tell when
Someone is holding a grudge
I'm making monsters for my friends...
IT'S NOT FOR ME TO KNOW (Dee Dee Ramone/Daniel Rey)
(2:50)
Easy come and easy go for me that was the fun
It was something that I didn't think was so bad
Now I'm lookin' out my window
But I don't know where I am
And I've give up trying to understand what I can't
I don't have any illusions anymore
I've done all that I can do
It's not for me to know, It's not for me to know
I stood under the moonlight to ill-luminate myself
Something I fell into from being kicked around
No one seemed to notice seeing from smoke screen eyes
You can get what you want but I don't think it is true
It's not for me to know...
THE CRUSHER (Dee Dee Ramone/Daniel Rey) (2:24)
Now I wanna wrestle in the garden
I'm on my way to stardom
I know I'm ready I know I'm great
But first I have to get in shape
Cause I've got my eyes on the Russian Bear
Gonna tear him up I swear
This guy thinks he's the champion
Gonna take his belt and beat him!
I'm the crusher king of the ring
I'm ready for a match with the Russian Bear
Gonna pile drive him pull his hair
I might have a foreign object in my trunks
I might have to use on that punk
Got the hardest hold you can put on anyone
If you're my victim you're beaten
I'm a lean mean fighting machine
Powerful and strong like King Kong
I'm the crusher king of the ring
Started having second thought I was scared as hell
The last thing I wanted was to hear them ring the bell
I mean the Russian Bear could probably tear
Me limb from limb
He'd probably grin be real happy with himself
This is not good for my health
I'm not coming out of the dressing room
And get beaten up by that goon
Go back to Russia, go back home!
Don't wanna get a broken bone
Or a lump on my head
Ain't gonna hide under the bed
I'm the crusher king of the ring
I'm the crusher...
LIFE'S A GAS (Joey Ramone) (3:35)
Life's a gas, life's a gas, life's a gas, a gas, oh yea
Life's a gas, life's a gas, life's a gas, a gas, oh yea
So don't be sad cause I'll be there
Don't be sad at all
TAKE THE PAIN AWAY (Dee Dee Ramone/Daniel Rey) (2:40)
I went out today for a walk in the rain
I was so sad and blue I could feel any pain
I was worried about everything, my head began to howl
I am running away from myself there's
Too many demons around here now
Everybody I don't know what to say
I wish I could take the pain away
But that can't happen and everybody knows it's true
And if you have to know I'll never understand you
So if you have to go then you'd better go now
Go off somewhere safe I hope you will somehow
Everybody I don't know what to say
I wish I could take the pain away
I LOVE YOU (J. Genzale) (2:21)
When I look in your eyes
I see words I can't describe
And these words I'm tellin' you
And I tell you I love you
Don't try to put me down
Just because my back is turned around
I'm playing it strait for once cause baby I love you
I really do there's no one else like you, Baby I love...
Baby I love you
No matter what you do
Baby I love you and I tell you I know you
Cause baby I love you I really do
There's no one else like you
Baby I love you, baby I love you
Baby I love you, baby I love you
Baby I love you, baby I love...
Baby I love you no matter what I do
Baby I love you and I tell you I love you...
CRETIN FAMILY (Dee Dee Ramone/Daniel Rey) (2:08)
I am not so upset about my horrible self
But why don't you go upset yourself
What a disgrace man and you know it's true
Cretin family, cretin family, cretin family
Everyone's against me
Cretin family, cretin family, cretin family
Oi-oi-oi-oi
Don't stare at me it's freakin' me out
Look what's happening now it's all your fault
You can't do nothin' absolutely nothing' O.K.
Why don't you get a hoola hoop
And do the cretin hop and
I'm never wrong don't tell me what to do
Here's a little curse it's from me to you
It's nothin' gonna happen nothin' ever will
You'll be miserable every day
Your luck will always be bad
Everyone's against me
Oi-oi-oi-oi
HAVE A NICE DAY (Marky Ramone/Skinny Bones) (1:41)
I heard it from the gangster
I heard it from the priest
I heard it from my best friend
Way down in the middle east
Have a nice day
That's all I hear every day
Have a nice day
I don't believe a word you say
I heard from the landlord
When he kicked me out
I heard it from the spirits
As they possessed my house
When they look me in the eye
I turn the other way
It's just a trained reaction
Something they gotta say... yeah
I heard it in New Zealand
I heard it at the club
I heard it from my doctor
Before he pulled the plug
SCATTERGUN (C.J. Ramone) (2:30)
Smooth bore, scattergun, you are the only one
To cover me when I sleep
Cover me in my dreams, carry a smooth bore
Scattergun, steal from me there'll be no time to run
I got the bead on you, she fires true
Take what you want and I'll do what I have to do
Smooth bore, scattergun, scattergun, scattergun
Triple-O bucks the only shot for me
Cut any man right off at the knees
Don't need to bother the police
I've got my Mossberg 590
Smooth bore, scattergun, you are the only one
To cover me when I sleep
cover me in my dreams carry a smooth bore
Scattergun, scattergun, scattergun
GOT ALOT TO SAY (C.J. Ramone) (1:42)
I got alot to say
I got alot to say
I got alot to say
I got alot to say
I can't remember now
I can't remember now
I can't remember now
I can't remember now
SHE TALKS TO RAINBOWS (Joey Ramone) (3:13)
She's a little lost girl in her own little world
She looks so happy but she seems so sad
She's a little lost girl in her own little world
I'd like to help her I'd like to try
She talks to birds, she talks to angels
She talks to trees, she talks to bees
She don't talk to me
Talks to the rainbows and to the seas
She talks to the trees, she don't talk to me
Don't talk to me
You know she drives me outta my mind
You know she drives me outta my head
She don't talk to me
Don't talk to me...
BORN TO DIE IN BERLIN (Dee Dee Ramone/John Carco)
(3:31)
Intoxicated by the orchids abandoned in the garden
Demanding morphine curse my soul is burning
Stranded in the sweet wonderings
Breathing the pale moon silver
Torn painted lips tasting the last drops of life
Sometimes I feel like screaming
Sometimes I feel I just can't win
Sometimes I feelin' my soul is as restless as the wind
Maybe I was born to die in Berlin
I sprinkled cocaine on the floor
When no one was watching
I closed my eyes and I let myself sleep
Creeps and dirty bastards
Demons waitin' by my bed
There's no choice or difference
No one seems to notice
(This verse is in German)
Maybe I was born to die in Berlin...
