Ramonesland Lyrics

And even when you've got her you don't feel you're gonna get her

that she's gonna float off sideways disappear into the ether


it's another sunny afternoon boulevard East in the autumn


and the cars are drinking petrol

and the seagulls dream of winter

and the fall goes on forever

and you reach over to kiss her

it's another sunny afternoon boulevard East in the autumn


and the kids are playing basketball

and she squeezes your hand gently

and you thunk another winter

it's another sunny afternoon boulevard East in the autumn


and she plays the Red House Painters

and it sounds fucking depressing

and your mind wanders to Europe

and how you may never ever see her

it's another sunny afternoon boulevard East in the autumn


and the day's lost in molasses

and it slows on down to sundown

and you're gonna take the ferry

float your mind up on the water

and you take her home to feed her

and the cat's looking up Seekers

and even when you feed her

you don't feel you're gonna get her

that she's gonna float off sideways

disappear into the ether

i think she's gonna float off sideways

disappear into the ether


it's another sunny afternoon boulevard East in the autumn


and you're living in Leonard Cohen land when want to live in Ramonesland

Cover art for Ramonesland lyrics by Adam Franklin

I believe that one stanza actually is:


and the day's lost in molasses 
and it slows on down to sundown 
and you're gonna take the ferry 
float your mind up on the water 
and you take her home to feed her 
and the cat's looking on, obesequious

What's that big last word mean? I'd look it up, but now I have to run to the kitchen after you made me hungry....molasses, water, "feed,".....geesh

OK, I chose a online dictionary over food: "Full of or exhibiting servile compliance; fawning. [Middle English, from Latin obsequi sus)"
