Tony, much respect. But "The Return of Jackie and Judy" shouldn't be on that list. Weakest song on that LP if you ask me. - Merle
I'd wager Mr. Tom Waits would disagree.
"The Return Of Jackie And Judy" (written by the Ramones for "End of the Century") Tom Waits "We're a Happy Family, a Tribute to the Ramones" & "Orphans"
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 hooky 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 why she wrote that letter Oh no, oh no And oh, I don't know why, Dont'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
