Punk Rock Girl Lyrics
One Saturday I took a walk to Zipperhead
I met a girl there and she almost knocked me dead
(Punk rock girl), please look at me
(Punk rock girl), what do you see?
Let's travel round the world
Just you and me, punk rock girl
I tapped her on the shoulder
And said, "do you have a beau"?
She looked at me and smiled and said she did not know
(Punk rock girl), give me a chance
(Punk rock girl), let's go slam dance
We'll dress like Minnie Pearl
Just you and me, punk rock girl
We went to the Philly Pizza Company and ordered some hot tea
The waitress said "well no, we only have it iced"
So we jumped up on the table and shouted anarchy
And someone played a Beach Boys song on the jukebox
It it was California Dreamin'
So we started screamin'
On such a winter's day
She took me to her parents for a Sunday meal
Her father took one look at me and he began to squeal
(Punk rock girl), it makes no sense
(Punk rock girl), your dad is the vice president
Rich as the Duke of Earl
Yeah, you're for me punk rock girl
We went to a shopping mall
And laughed at all the shoppers
And security guards trailed us to a record shop
We asked for Mojo Nixon
They said he don't work here
We said if you don't got Mojo Nixon then your store could use some fixin'
We got into her car away, we started rollin'
I said how much you pay for this
Said "nothin' man it's stolen"
(Punk rock girl) you look so wild
(Punk rock girl) let's have a child
We'll name her Minnie Pearl
Just you and me
Eat fudge banana swirl
Just you and me
We'll travel round the world
Just you and me
Punk rock girl
I met a girl there and she almost knocked me dead
(Punk rock girl), what do you see?
Let's travel round the world
Just you and me, punk rock girl
And said, "do you have a beau"?
She looked at me and smiled and said she did not know
(Punk rock girl), let's go slam dance
We'll dress like Minnie Pearl
Just you and me, punk rock girl
The waitress said "well no, we only have it iced"
So we jumped up on the table and shouted anarchy
And someone played a Beach Boys song on the jukebox
It it was California Dreamin'
So we started screamin'
On such a winter's day
Her father took one look at me and he began to squeal
(Punk rock girl), your dad is the vice president
Rich as the Duke of Earl
Yeah, you're for me punk rock girl
And laughed at all the shoppers
And security guards trailed us to a record shop
We asked for Mojo Nixon
They said he don't work here
We said if you don't got Mojo Nixon then your store could use some fixin'
I said how much you pay for this
Said "nothin' man it's stolen"
(Punk rock girl) let's have a child
We'll name her Minnie Pearl
Just you and me
Eat fudge banana swirl
Just you and me
We'll travel round the world
Just you and me
Punk rock girl

" I tapped her on the shoulder And said do you have a bell? "
That's wrong
The correct lyrics are :
" I tapped her on the shoulder And said do you have a beau "
the beach boys do a cover of California Dreaming, that is what they are referring to in this song
And, 'BLEACH Boys' is the next song on Beezlebubba!

I just love this song. Top alternative DJ in Ireland used to run a top 100 songs of all time, every xmas up until 2003 - Punk Rock Girl was never out of the top ten. I think it's a complete p*ss take on those rich kid rebels we've all come across. Maybe it was the inspirations for Pulp's 'Common People'!

I learned something today. After just hearing it, I'd start screaming, too.

Forget overblown generic love ballads; this is the sweetest, most sincere, love song ever.
"We'll travel round the world just you and me punk rock girl.: Simplest, most earnest declaration of love ever. I'd totally fall head over heels for any guy who said that to me.
Ooh, I love this song. It reminds me of going to South Street.
Psh. Of course, Zipperhead is no longer Zipperhead. They moved and now they're Crash Bang Boom. Same thing, different name/location.
Mmm. Philly Pizza Company.
Now whenever I hear California Dreaming I want to get up and scream...
me too... love this song, but can't get it outta my head, i sing it all round school. The teachers get pretty pissed off.

Did anyone else see the NN2S comic, where it shows the two guys going to the Philly Pizza Company and order tea and the waitress says "Must we do this every time?" and the next panel they're on the table screaming anarchy?
anyway, i love this song to death. it's probably one of my favorite songs ever. it's so adorable, without being too sappy. :]
The couple in this song are horrible parents. They have a child, name it Minnie Pearl, then travel the world without it!
We'll travel round the world just you and me nightkite13
i went out with this kid about 4 years ago and he said every time i look at you a i hear this song.. i would never listen to it even though i owned the cd - i was scared.. i listened to it today and i cant stop crying.. i kind of miss him.. woops
awwwwwww....its way too sweet!!! there really ain't nothin like punk rock lovin!!
a good love song that has nothing to do with sex. i like the part with the iced tea, its so strange.
@yallRstupid Well he does say "you drive me wild - let's have a child..." I take that as a reference to sex, i.e. a polite and non-lascivious one.
