Couldn't keep a secret 
    Got a concrete skull 
    Couldn't shut up you're an imbecile 
    You're an ugly dog there's 
    Nothing to gain 
    You couldn't shut up got a 
    Bad bad brain 
Couldn't hold your tongue 
    You were just too young 
    Like a two year old you told 
    You told 
    You are all the same jelly 
    Bean brain 
    Every one's a secret nerd 
    Every one's a closet lame 
Ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-mama's boy
Don't want to work in a hot dog stand 
    Be a busboy messenger or a doorman 
    It's an abstract world you're an 
    Abstract man 
    Abstract city don't give a damn 
(Johnny Ramone/Dee Dee Ramone/T. Erdelyi)
I am not afraid of life 
    Of the poor man's struggle 
    Of the killer's knife 
    I am not afraid of life 
    Of an insane rage 
    Of the minimum wage 
    I am not afraid of life 
I am not afraid of life 
    I am not afraid of life 
But I see an old lady with a shopping bag 
    And I wonder is life a drag 
I am not afraid of pain 
    But it hurts so bad 
    I feel so mad 
    No one see the truth 
    There's nothing to gain 
    A life goes down the drain 
    Don't want to die at an early age 
I am not afraid of life 
    I am not afraid of life 
But I see a street crazy shivering with cold 
    Is it a crime to be old 
There's the threat of the nuclear bomb 
    We know it's wrong 
    We know it's wrong 
    Is there a chance for peace 
    Will the fighting ever cease 
    Mankind's almost out of luck 
    A maniac could blow us up 
I am not afraid of life 
    I am not afraid of life 
But I get down on my knees and I pray 
    Is there hope for the world today 
(Dee Dee Ramone)
I am a tu tu tu tu tu tu tu tu tough tough guy 
    I tell no tales I do no lie 
I am a tu tu tu tu tu tu tu tu tough tough guy 
    Halo round my head to tough to die 
Main attraction in a freak side show 
    Down in the basement where the cobwebs grow 
    On my last leg just gettin' by 
    Halo round my read too tough to die 
Rainy days rain cool wine 
    I'll scratch your back if you scratch mine 
    Hot sweat on my face 
    I feel like goin' out someplace 
Up late light my chocolate sweet 
    Down at the gym where the muscle boys meet 
    I am very nice guy very sincere 
    In real good shape I have no fear 
At the concert when the band comes on 
    I am in the ring where I belong 
    On my last leg just gettin' by 
    Halo round my head too tough to die

New York city is a real cool town 
    Society really brings me down 
    Our playground is a pharmacy 
    Kids find trouble so easily 
Other countries are just as bad 
    The soviets really make me mad 
    On the boulevard where police hide 
    Let's steal a car for a joyride 
They say you're just an awkward kid 
    You flipped your lid you flipped your lid 
    You love wine like they love cash 
    Feel your rage spread like a rash 
You flipped your lid you flipped your lid 
    You flipped your lid you flipped your lid 
    They say you're just an awkward kid 
    You flipped your lid you flipped your lid 
All alone in the danger zone 
    Danger zone danger zone 
    All alone in the danger zone 
    Danger zone danger zone

Standing here in front of the mirror 
    Its gonna be all right tonight 
    Feelin hot yeah I'm on fire 
    I'm never ever goin to tire 
Tonight it's gonna be alright 
    Chasing the night 
    Its gonna be alright 
    Chasing the night 
    Its gonna be alright

Live my life as I choose 
    I paid the price, paid my dues 
    You know I need no alibi 
    Daytime troubles fading 
    Nights intoxicating 
    Gonna have it all tonight 
    That ain't no lie 
Chorus: tonight
Rock all night 
    Sleep all day 
    It don't matter what they say 
    Ain't never gonna change my ways 
    & I won't be back till monday 
Feelin exasperating 
    Excitement generating 
    I'm never ever gonna tire 
    City is overloading 
    The circuits are exploding 
    Ain't comin down, no I'm too wired 
Chorus: tonight

Ships are docking 
    Planes are landing 
    A never ending supply 
No more narco 
    No more gangster 
    Conservatives can cry 
I took the law and threw it away 
    Cause there's nothing wrong 
    It's just for play 
    Theres no law, no law anymore 
    I want to steal from the rich & 
    Give to the poor 
Sha-la-la-la 
    Sha-la-la-la-la-la 
It was glowing, glowing, glowing 
    Glowing in the dark 
    It was sparkling, sparkling, sparkling 
    Sparking in the night 
    I took the law & threw it away 
    Cause there's nothing wrong 
    It's just for play 
Theres no law, no law anymore 
    I want to steal from the rich & 
    Give to the poor 
Winter turns to summer 
    Sadness turns to fun 
    Keep the faith, baby 
    You broke the rules & won 
Sha-la-la-la 
    Sha-la-la-la-la-la 
Keep it glowing, glowing,glowing 
    I'm not hurting anyone 
    Keep it glowing, smoking, glowing 
    I'm howling at the moon 
    I took the law & threw it away 
    Cause there's nothing wrong 
    It's just for play 
    Theres no law, no law anymore 
    I want to steal from the rich &

She came from a happy home 
    A very happy home 
    A very happy home 
Miss personality, a grade 'a' student naturally
She had it all worked out 
    But things aren't what they seem 
    Is this real or just a dream 
    And things will never ever be the same again 
She came from a happy home 
    A very happy home 
    A home of happiness 
Miss personality, a grade 'A' student naturally 
    She had it all in place 
    But things aren't what they seem 
    Is this real or just a dream 
    Things will never ever be the same again 
The dangers, its the dangers of love 
    The dangers, its the dangers of love 
She came from a happy home 
    A very happy home 
    A very happy scene 
She caught him with another 
    It turns out it was her mother 
    What a tragedy 
    Can things be what they seem 
    Is this just some crazy dream 
    Things may never ever be the same again 
The dangers, its the dangers of love 
    The dangers, its the dangers of love 
Keep telling li-ie-ies, but you did 
    You know you did 
    Its coming,.its coming,.its coming 
The dangers, its the dangers of love 
    The dangers, its the dangers of love 
What went wrong she couldn't tell 
    But we know it all too well 
The dangers, its the dangers of love 
    The dangers, its the dangers of love

The solution to peace isn't clear 
    The terrorist threat is a modern fear 
    There are no jobs for the young 
    They turn to crime and turn to drugs 
    Battle ships crowd the sea 
    16 year olds in the army 
    Our jails are filled to the max 
    Discrimination against the blacks 
Russians and americans war machine 
    Will destroy mankind's dream 
    They shoot their missiles in the air 
    They do not care they do not care 
    Guerrilla armies rule the street 
    No more christmas or trick or treat 
    Is this what the future will bring 
    I pray for peace more than anything 
The solution to peace isn't clear 
    The terrorists threat is a modern fear 
    There is no future for the youth 
    There is no hope for the young 
    Death destruction bombs galore 
    The rich are laughing at the poor 
    Our jails are filled to the max 
    Discrimination against the blacks 
(Dee Dee Ramone)
(VERSE I) 
    Humankind, it's not fair, why should we all live in fear 
    Humankind, it's a test, to see who's the very best 
    Humankind, don't know why, no one cares who lives or dies 
    Humankind, don't look at me, look at yourself, what do you see 
(CHORUS) 
    People - always tellin' lies, they can keep their alibi 
    People - knockin' at my door, how come they want more and more 
    People - talkin' behind your back, most of them drive a cadilac 
    People - starrin' at your clothes - I can't take it anymore 
(VERSE II) 
    Humankind, it's a shame, some don't even know their name 
    Humankind are so strange, some need to be rearranged 
    Humankind, don't know why, no one cares who lives or dies 
    Humankind, don't look at me, look at yourself, what do you see 
Beg. The humankind (3x) during intro part
(MIDDLE) 
    Tell me, tell me, who's to blame, for people acting this way 
    Tell me, tell me, what's so wrong, if humans just got along 
    Tell me, tell me, tell me please, if psychiatric help is what we need 
(1st chorus - 2 lines into 'why oh why' humankind

I kill myself kill the pain 
      A suicide death a suicide game 
      My skull he's bleaching in the dust 
      My rage turns to insane lust 
All depressed all alone 
      I drift into the danger zone 
      Deadly spitten cobra life of crime 
      I want revenge I want what's mine 
Like takin' carrie to the high school prom 
      Something's always goin' wrong 
      Hair trigger temper tormented mind 
      Deadly spitten cobra I am losin' kind 
The heart is the place devils congregate 
      When you're raised on andiet of bickering at hate 
      Hair trigger temper tormented mind 
      Deadly spitten cobra I am losin' kind 
Endless vacation
