EN DEUX MOTS


Après trois chefs-d'oeuvre consécutifs et le départ de leur batteur, les Ramones empruntent avec Road to Ruin une voie nettement moins mélodique et peut-être plus classique. Mais le génie des chevelus fait à nouveau mouche grâce à une série de titres bien sentis, dont le classique des classiques, I wanna be sedated.
PAROLES

 
I Just Want To Have Something To Do

Hanging out on Second Avenue
Eating chicken vindaloo
I just want to be with you
I just want to have something to do
Tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight
Well allright
Tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight
Wait-Now
Wait-Now
Hanging out all by myself
Cause I don't want to be with anybody else
I just want to be with you
I just want to have something to do
Tonight.


I Wanted Everything

I heard about the Easter Bunny
Presents under the Christmas tree
It was dreaming and fantasy
There was no mom or daddy
I wanted everything
I wanted everything
I wanted everything
I had the world on my shoulder
But I was getting older
Knew I was ready for it
Some kind of employment
I wanted everything
I wanted everything
I wanted everything
All day working on a truck
Bringing the groceries up
Not much of a salary
No tip for the delivery
I wanted everything
I wanted everything
I wanted everything
There's no success for me
Involved in a robbery
There's money in the supermarket
And I'm goin' after it
I wanted everything.


Don't Come Close

You know it's generally know
You got everything at home
Kisses out of desperation
Bring you more aggravation
And you don't come close
You don't come close
You don't come close
You bring out your souvenirs
Soak them wet with your tears
You lose your imagination
Out of more aggravation
And you don't come close
You don't come close
You don't come close
You turn red with rage
But act your age
Only thing that you regret
You need more time to forget
And you don't come close
You don't come close
You don't come close.


I Don't Want You

You said that you'd be true
Baby said that you'd be true
I don't care, I don't care
I don't care, I don't care
I don't want you
Don't want you
I don't want you anymore
You said that you'd be mine
Baby said that you'd be mine
I don't care, I don't care
I don't care, I don't care
I don't want you
Don't want you I don't you.
I want you, I want you
I want you to stay
But I guess it just can't be that way
You said that you'd be true
Baby said that you'd be true
I don't care, I don't care
I don't care, I don't care
I don't want you
Don't want want you
I don't want you anymore.


Needles And Pins

I saw her today, I saw her face
It was the face I love, and I knew
I had to run away
And get down on my knees and pray
That they go away
And still it begins
Needles and pins
Because of all my pride
The tears I gotta hide
Oh I thought I was smart
I stole her heart
I didn't think I'd do
But know I see
She's worth to him then me
Let her go ahead
Take his love instead
And one day she will see
Just how to say please
And get down on her knees
Oh that's how it begins
She'll feel those needles and pins
Hurtin' her, hurtin' her

Why can't I stop
And tell myself I'm wrong
I'm wrong, so wrong
Why can't I stand up
And tell myself I'm strong
Because

Needles and pins
Needles and pins
Needles and pins


I'm Against It

I don't like politics
I don't like communists
I don't like games and fun
I don't like anyone
Well I'm against it
I'm against it
Well I'm against it
I'm against it
I don't like Jesus freaks
I don't like circus geeks
I don't like summer and spring
I don't like anything
I don't like sex and drugs
I don't like water bugs
I don't care about poverty
All I care about is me
I don't like playing ping pong
I don't like the Viet cong
I don't like Burger king
I don't like anything
And I'm against it.


I Wanna Be Sedated

Twenty-twenty-twenty four hours to go
I wanna be sedated
Nothing to do
Nowhere to go
I Wanna be sedated
Just get me to the airport
And put me on a plane
Hurry hurry hurry before I go insane
I can't control my fingers
I can't control my brain
Oh no oh no
Just put me in a wheelchair
And get me to the show
Hurry hurry hurry before I go loco
I can't control my fingers
I can't control my toes
Oh no oh no


Go Mental

Out of the hospital
Out against my will
Life is so beautiful
I've gone mental
Mental! Mental!
I've killed my family
They thought I was an oddity
Life is so beautiful
I am a vegetable
Mental! Mental!
I've gone mental
I've gone mental
Staring at my goldfish bowl
Popping phenobarbitol
Life is so beautiful
I've gone mental
Mental! Mental!
Sitting on my window sill
Life is so beautiful
I've become irrational
I've gone mental
Mental! Mental!
I've gone mental.


Questioningly

Questioningly her eyes looked at me
And then she spoke-
Aren't you someone I used to know
And weren't we lovers a long time ago?
Looked at her close
Forced her into view
Yes, I said, you're a girl
That I once may have knew
But I don't love you anymore
Why do you want to talk to me for?
You should have just let me walk by
Memories make us cry
In the morning I'm at work on time
My boss he tells me that I'm doing fine
When I'm going home
Whiskey bottle movie on TV
Memories make me cry
And I'm alone just me
Just me questioningly.


She's The One

Yeah yeah she's the one
Yeah yeah she's the one
When I see her on the street
You know she makes my life complete
And you know I told you so
She's the one
She's the one
Yeah yeah she's my girl
Yeah yeah she's my girl
When I see her on the street
You know she makes my life complete
And you know I told you so
She's the one
She's the one
She's the one
Know I'll never find a girl like you
But in my heart I'll always love you
But in my heart I'll always be true
Yeah yeah she's my girl
The best girl in the whole wide world


Bad Brain

I used to be an A student
I never used to complain
I used to be a truant
But I'm still the same
Bad bad brain
Bad bad brain
I used to go to parties
I used to drink champagne
Now I'm geginning to feel the strain
Bad bad brain
I used to be in a show biz
I used to have fortune and fame
I used to have pleasure and pain
I used to have a name
Bad bad brain
Now I'm on the Bowery
I can't remember my name
Bad bad brain
Bad bad brain
Bad bad brain


It's a long way back

You by the phone
You all alone
It's a long way back to Germany.
