Song of the Day 7/5: The Ramones, “The Job That Ate My Brain”

Joe Biden’s fight for survival wasn’t helped by telling his staff he needs an early bedtime, and he’s clearly made an enemy of the New York Times. So we’ve got three old guys running for president. To paraphrase Billy Martin, one’s got brain worms and the other two are senile.

Trump and RFK Jr. have always been several degrees off-kilter, but Biden used to be a more or less standard-issue politician. I think it’s the job that ate his brain.

This is a late-period Ramones song from 1992’s “Mondo Bizarro” LP. It was drummer Marky Ramone’s sole songwriting contribution to what was supposed to be a comeback album but became the lowest-charting of their career.
