Hey ho, let's go! Hey ho, let's go!
Hey ho, let's go! Hey ho, let's go!

They're forming in straight line
They're going through a tight wind
The kids are losing their minds
The Blitzkrieg Bop
They're piling in the back seat
They're generating steam heat
Pulsating to the back beat
The Blitzkrieg Bop

Hey ho, let's go
Shoot'em in the back now
What they want, I don't know
They're all revved up and ready to go

They're forming in straight line
They're going through a tight wind
The kids are losing their minds
The Blitzkrieg Bop

They're piling in the back seat
They're generating steam heat
Pulsating to the back beat

Hey ho, let's go
Shoot'em in the back now

Overall Meaning

The song "Blitzkrieg Bop” by Dee Dee Ramone is a classic punk rock anthem that captures the anarchic energy of the genre. The song's opening chant of "Hey ho, let's go!" sets the tone for the frenzied, fast-paced music that follows. The lyrics describe a scene of youthful rebellion and chaos, as kids pile into cars and blast their music, losing themselves in the frenzy of the band's performance. The lines "They're forming in a straight line, they're going through a tight wind" suggest a moment of anticipation before the release of energy. The repeated references to steam heat and pulsating backbeat reinforce the sense of physical energy that characterizes punk rock.


In the chorus of the song, the lyrics in the line "Shoot'em in the back now” is a nod to the band's confrontational attitude, defying authority and challenging the status quo. The song is a celebration of the raw power of punk rock and the youthful spirit of rebellion it embodies. The repeated "Hey ho, let's go!" chorus becomes an infectious rallying cry, urging listeners to join in the celebration of energy, freedom, and defiance.
