Led Zep Girl Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 I am anxious to know what The Ramones meant by "Bonzo". (Bonzo Goes to Bitburg) You've got to pick up the pieces C'mon, sort your trash You better pull yourself back together Maybe you've got too much cash Better call, call the law When you gonna turn yourself in? Yeah You're a politician Don't become one of Hitler's children Bonzo goes to bitburg then goes out for a cup of tea As I watched it on TV somehow it really bothered me Drank in all the bars in town for an extended foreign policy Pick up the pieces My brain is hanging upside down I need something to slow me down Shouldn't wish you happiness, wish her the very best Fifty thousand dollar dress Shaking hands with your highness See through you like cellophane You watch the world complain, but you do it anyway Who am I, am I to say Bonzo goes to bitburg then goes out for a cup of tea As I watched it on TV somehow it really bothered me Drank in all the bars in town for an extended foreign policy Pick up the pieces My brain is hanging upside down I need something to slow me down If there's one thing that makes me sick It's when someone tries to hide behind politics I wish that time could go by fast Somehow they manage to make it last My brain is hanging upside down I need something to slow me down Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jahfin Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 I am anxious to know what The Ramones meant by "Bonzo". It's a reference to Ronald Reagan. You can read more about it here. What, did you think it was about John Bonham? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you for your help. Well John Bnham is the only "Bonzo" I know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jahfin Posted November 30, 2010 Share Posted November 30, 2010 Thank you for your help. Well John Bnham is the only "Bonzo" I know. He was a chimp first. There was also the Bonzo Doo Dah Band (aka The Bonzo Dog Band): Not everything revolves around Led Zeppelin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
