The playing favorites - The ramones are dead lyrics

rate me

I can listen to the records from my younger years

Pacify my bitter ears

And revive the dead dinosaurs

Me and Jamo rode two buses bound for Rockpile

Sure to find a rarity

And something to believe

But I can't listen to them now

Without mourning a small town

And the mom and pops i loved

Once a missionary man

I age into obscurity with them

The Ramones are dead

You could judge a band by a cover flipping thru the bins

Assured enough to take a spin

The art and lyrics big enough to see and read

Pull the record from it's sleeve

Spear the cut hole, arm and speed

Plunge the needle, shaking like a drug fiend

But I can't listen to them now

Without mourning a small town

And the mom and pops i loved

Once a missionary man

I age into obscurity with them

The Ramones are dead

Now relevant again somehow

Reanimated sacred cow

But it all seems different now

It's far too easy to get anything in demand

I'll say it once again

The Ramones are dead<br />

<br />
