Gonna take a chance on her
One bullet in the cylinder
And in a moment of passion
Get the glory like Charles Manson
Gonna smile, I'm gonna laugh
You're gonna get a blood bath
And in a moment of passion
Get the glory like Charles Manson
You gotta go, go, go, go, goodbye
Glad to see you go, go, go, go, goodbye
Now I know the score
I don't need you anymore
Don't want you cause you're a bore
I need somebody good I need a miracle
Should I take a chance on her?
One bullet in the cylinder
Gonna smile, I'm gonna laugh
They're gonna want my autograph
And in a moment of passion
Get the glory like Charles Manson
You gotta go, go, go, go, goodbye
Glad to see you go, go, go, go, goodbye
Goodbye

We fell in love by the soda machine
So we took the car downtown

Then we went down to Coney Island
On the coaster and around again
And no one's gonna ever tear us apart
'Cause she's my sweetheart
All right, oh yeah
Oh oh I love her so

Hanging out on a night like this

5. CARBONA NOT GLUE
Written by The Ramones
1:50
This song was only available on the first LP pressings.
Why? This song was a sequel to 'Now I Wanna Sniff Some Glue' . Their point was that after you've done glue, you move on to Carbona. They thought it was a substance and not a trademark, and when Carbona threatened to sue, the record company pulled it off after the initial pressing.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Wondering what I'm doing tonight
I've been in the closet and feel all right
Ran out of Carbona, mom threw out the glue
Ran out of paint and roach spray too
It's TV's fault why I am this way
Mom and pop wanna put me away
From the early morning movie to the late late show
After it's over nowhere to go
And I'm not sorry for the things I do
My brain is stuck from shooting
I'm not sorry for the things I do
Carbona not glue
