I DON'T WANT TO GROW UP 2.43 (Tom Waits / Kathleen Brennan)

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 doubtI 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 2.33 (Dee Dee Ramone / Daniel Rey)

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
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'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
I'm making monsters for my friends
I'm making monsters for my friends
I'm making monsters for my friends



IT'S NOT FOR ME TO KNOW 2.50 (Dee Dee Ramone / Daniel Rey)

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
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

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
It's not for me to know It's not for me to know

No one seemed to notice seeing from smoke screen eyes

You can get what you want but I don't think it is true

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
It's not for me to know It's not for me to know

It's not for me to know It's not for me to know



THE CRUSHER 2.24 (Dee Dee Ramone / Daniel Rey)

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 the crusher king of the ring
I'm the crusher king of the ring 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 I'm the crusher king of the ring
I'm the crusher king of the ring 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 king of the ring
I'm the crusher king of the ring I'm the crusher king of the ring

I'm the Crusher

TAKE THE PAIN AWAY 2.40 (Dee Dee Ramone / Daniel Rey)

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 how
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
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
Everybody I don't know what to say I wish I could take the pain away

Everybody I don't know what to say I wish I could take the pain away
Everybody I don't know what to say I wish I could take the pain away



I LOVE YOU 2.21 (J Genzale)

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

HAVE A NICE DAY 1.41 (Marky Ramone / Skinny Bones)

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

Have a nice day. That's all I hear every day
Have a nice day. I don't believe a word you say

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 from New Zealand I heard it at the club
I heard it from my doctor Before he pulled the plug

Have a nice day. That's all I hear every day
Have a nice day. I don't believe a word you say
Have a nice day. That's all I hear every day
Have a nice day. I don't believe a word you say



SCATTERGUN 2.30 (C.J. Ramone)

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,
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

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

BORN TO DIE IN BERLIN 3.31 (Dee Dee Ramone / John Carco)

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

Sometimes I feel like screamin' 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

(Third verse in German)

Sometimes I feel like screamin' 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 Maybe I was born to die in Berlin
