The Return of Jackie and Judy Lyrics
Jackie is a punk, Judy is a runt
They went down to the Mudd Club
And they both got drunk
Oh-yeah
Jackie is a bookie, Judy's taking loans
They both came up to New York
Just to see the Ramones
Oh-yeah
And oh, I don't know why she wrote that letter
Oh no, oh no
Oh I don't know why we won't forget her oh no
Jackie's playing hookey
Judy's playing pool
They both got caught for cutting
Got to go to summer school
Oh-yeah
Jackie's scalping tickets
Judy's getting harassed
They both got kicked outside
Didn't have a backstage pass
Oh-yeah
And oh, I don't know why she wrote that letter
Oh no, oh no
Oh I don't know why,
Don't know what's on her mind
I don't know, no, I don't know
But I can't stand to see her cryin'
She's still cryin', she ain't tryin'
She's going to get left behind
Nobody wants you, nobody wants you
They went down to the Mudd Club
And they both got drunk
Oh-yeah
They both came up to New York
Just to see the Ramones
Oh-yeah
Oh no, oh no
Oh I don't know why we won't forget her oh no
Judy's playing pool
They both got caught for cutting
Got to go to summer school
Oh-yeah
Judy's getting harassed
They both got kicked outside
Didn't have a backstage pass
Oh-yeah
Oh no, oh no
Oh I don't know why,
Don't know what's on her mind
I don't know, no, I don't know
She's still cryin', she ain't tryin'
She's going to get left behind
Nobody wants you, nobody wants you

I think this song is about groupies or something
NNNNNNNNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! ITS ABOUT JAKIE AND JUDY, LATER ON IN LIFE (CHECK OUT JUDY IS A PUNK)
Judy and Jackie were two obsessive Ramones fans (according to the Ramones lyrics booklet). They died in a planecrash.
