Noam Chomsky Versus the Ramones

 

 

Reading Noam Chomsky
while listening to the Ramones
makes perfect sense to me
because I reall need them both
I wanna read about media distortion
of US foreign policy
but I also need dumb stuff
like Joey, Johnny and Dee Dee

I need Noam Chomsky…and also the Ramones

Sitting in Queens
eating re-fried beans
could make it hard sometimes
to care about the Lebanese
And that’s not an excuse
to shrug responsibilties
but we all need simple truths sometimes
Ramones provide that for me

I need Noam Chomsky…and also the Ramones
