RAMONES

- Commando Lyrics

They do their best, they do what they can
They get them ready for Vietnam

From old Hanoi to East Berlin
Commando involved again

They do their best, they do what they can
They get them ready for Vietnam

First rule is, 'The laws of Germany'
Second rule is, 'Be nice to mommy'
Third rule is, 'Don't talk to commies'
Fourth rule is, 'Eat kosher salamis'

They do their best, they do what they can
They get them ready for Vietnam

From old Hanoi to East Berlin
Commando, involved again

They do their best, they do what they can
They get them ready for Vietnam

First rule is, 'The laws of Germany'
Second rule is, 'Be nice to mommy'
Third rule is, 'Don't talk to commies'
Fourth rule is, 'Eat kosher salamis'

What is the meaning behind Commando lyrics?


When we look deeper into its meaning, the amusingly sounding 'Commando' by the American rock band Ramones indirectly emphasizes the ridiculousness of military training and arbitrary rules through the metaphor of a soldier preparing for the Vietnam War to show the senselessness and contradictions of people's wars. Commando lyrics mainly reflect social commentary, angst, introspection, empowerment, and despair. However, the song coping with the issue of military training and rules and regulations gives a strong affirmation of their importance. The lyrics also allude to historical and geopolitical issues like Vietnam and Germany, which might need some parental advisory for the little ones to fully grasp the context. Moreover, 'commandos' and rules are mentioned that could be interpreted as somewhat heavy for a broad audience.
