They just have a perfect sound. Many bands have perfect songs, but the Ramones have a sound where even the less perfect songs still are perfect. They only sound less perfect because the Ramones have even more perfect songs to compare them to. They just figured out in like five minutes how to bottle excitement and fun into as few notes as possible. And then they played those notes 1000 times per song.
