Twenty twenty twenty four hours to go
I wanna be sedated
Nothing to do, no where to go o,
I wanna be sedated

Just get me to the airport, put me on a plane
Hurry hurry hurry, before I go insane
I can't control my fingers, I can't control my brain
Oh no oh oh oh oh

Twenty twenty twenty four hours to go
I wanna be sedated
Nothing to do, no where to go o,
I wanna be sedated

Just put me in a wheelchair, get me on a plane
Hurry hurry hurry, before I go insane
I can't control my fingers, I can't control my brain
Oh no oh oh oh oh

Twenty twenty twenty four hours to go
I wanna be sedated
Nothing to do, no where to go o,
I wanna be sedated

Just put me in a wheelchair, get me to the show
Hurry hurry hurry, before I go loco
I can't control my fingers, I can't control my toes
Oh no oh oh oh oh

Twenty twenty twenty four hours to go
I wanna be sedated
Nothing to do, no where to go o,
I wanna be sedated

Just put me in a wheelchair, get me to the show
Hurry hurry hurry, before I go loco
I can't control my fingers, I can't control my toes
Oh no oh oh oh oh

Ba ba baba, baba ba baba, I wanna be sedated
Ba ba baba, baba ba baba, I wanna be sedated
Ba ba baba, baba ba baba, I wanna be sedated
Ba ba baba, baba ba baba, I wanna be sedated

    General Comment:Sounds almost like a song based around insomnia or being hyperactive. Or just plain boredom and restlessness.

    Awesome song. The Ramones kick the shit out of most bands out there today!!

    General Comment:Also, when I was a junior in high school, my US History teacher made us write songs about a particular period of history and perform them in front of the class, so we just wrote different words to this one. My buddy played it on guitar and I sang it by myself because my brother is an idiot. It was pretty damn ridiculous, but also pretty sweet.

    General Comment:Yeah I definitely read somewhere that this was about a humidifier exploding in DeeDee's face. Or at least I think it was DeeDee.
