I used to be an A student
I never used to complain
I used to be a truant
But I'm still the same
Bad, bad brain

Excerpt From Richard Hell's I Dreamed I Was a Very Clean Tramp:

The band had gathered at Arturo Vega’s loft for the interview. Arturo was the Ramones’ art director and best friend and main booster. I turned on the tape recorder and started asking questions. In a minute, Dee Dee was explaining the group’s songs and he said the first one they’d written was “I Don’t Wanna Walk Around with You,” and the next one was “I Don’t Wanna Get Involved with You,” and then “I Don’t Wanna Go Down to the Basement.” I don’t wanna this and I don’t wanna that. Finally he offered, “We didn’t write a positive song until ‘Now I Want to Sniff Some Glue.’” Someone who was actually dumb would never be able to think of that, which of course makes it even funnier.”
