Cover art for Howling at the Moon (Sha-La-La) lyrics by Ramones

sweet, this is one my favs by the ramones, when i first heard the song and started listening to it, i was tryin to think what it might be about and the first thing that popped to my head is "it sounds alot like smokin" so wow i guess it really was, thats sweet, heres my pick at the song...

ok i dont get the "howling at the moon" what that might mean but the lyrics are pretty straight forward

"ships are docking planes are landing a never ending supply "

obviously the large amount of pot and easily accessible drug and virtually endless amounts of it

"no more narco no more gangster conservatives can cry"

sorta sounds like the lust for its legalization, telling the gov to realize it such a minuscule problem compared to even legal substances like cigs and alcohol, to more NARCo's wasting time and money while could be focusing on other worse drugs, and it would decrease gang activity slightly since many gangs operate from selling, and obviously, conservatists wouldnt like the idea of legalizing but fuck them, they can go CRY

"I took the law & threw it away cause there's nothing wrong it's just for play"

again, its obviously illegal so hes breakin the law and as i agree, it is just for fun :)

"I want to steal from the rich & give to the poor "

: ) something i wanna do too!

"it was glowing, glowing, glowing glowing in the dark it was sparkling, sparkling, sparkling sparkling in the night"

reminded me of the glowing cherry on a joint and the sparkiling crystals on marijuana

"I'm smoking, baby I'm smoking, oh baby "

yup, amazing song & lyrics
