Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

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
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
The blitzkrieg bop





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

Overall Meaning

The Ramones' song Blitzkrieg Bop is a punk rock anthem that captures the essence of youth rebellion and raw energy. The lyrics describe the formation of a group of young people as they prepare to wreak havoc and have a good time, with the "blitzkrieg bop" serving as a metaphor for the excitement and chaos that ensues.


The first verse details the group's formation, with the kids coming together in a straight line and charging forward with full force, cutting through any obstacles in their path. They're so hyped up that they're "losing their minds" and ready to unleash their energy. The second verse describes their physical movements as they pile into a car and generate "steam heat," vibrating and pulsating to the beat of the music.


The chorus, with its iconic "Hey ho, let's go" chant, serves as a call to action, encouraging the group to shoot forward and take on whatever comes their way. The lyrics don't provide clear answers as to what they want or where they're headed, but they're clearly revved up and ready to go. The song reflects the youthful spirit of rebellion and the desire to break free from societal norms and expectations.
