They met in 1980 at the school disco   He kissed her for the first time on the last bus home   He said ‘you be Dirty Harry, I’ll be Joey Ramone’      She saw shooting stars flash by   The moon exploded in the sky   Her heart flipped when they kissed   Star dust on her lips   Special pact in the dark   Getting pissed in the park   She’s in love   She’s in love      And when they walked downtown all the people would stare   They used to laugh at her clothes and the color of their hair   She was 17 and she didn’t care   Cause baby’s gonna take her everywhere      Cause he said they’d live in New York   And the stars would be their own   She was dirty Harry and he was Joey Ramone   Yeah he said they’d live in New York   And the stars would be their own   She was dirty Harry and he was Joey   he was Joey Ramone      When she met him she was standing in a pure white light   He said “You like the Sex Pistols,    Have you got a light?”   And all the stars were shining on a perfect Saturday night   Holding him tight   Kissing him in the dark   In the back of daddy’s car   Have a drink   Have a laugh   Do you want my autograph   No school   Summer’s out   Make me wanna twist and shout   Down on the beaches lookin at the peaches      And when they walked downtown all the people would stare   They used to laugh at her clothes and the color of their hair   She was 17 and she didn’t care   Cause baby’s gonna take her everywhere   Cause he said they’d live in New York   And the stars would be their own   She was dirty Harry and he was Joey Ramone   Yeah he said they’d live in New York   And the stars would be their own   She was dirty Harry and he was Joey   he was Joey Ramone      Cause he said they’d live in New York   And the stars would be their own   She was dirty Harry and he was Joey Ramone   Yeah he said they’d live in New York   And the stars would be their own   She was dirty Harry and he was Joey   he was Joey Ramone
