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 Milton Berle

Just you and me punk rock girl



We went on tour to Texas

And we ordered some hot tea

The waiter said 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 not vice president
We'll jazz to Duke of Earl



Yeah you're for me punk rock girl


Solo!



We went to a shopping mall

And laughed at all the shoppers

And security guards trailed us to a record store

We asked for G.G. Allin

They said he don't work here

We said if you don't got G.G. Allin then we're gonna burn your mall down!!



We got into her car away we started rollin

I said how much you pay for this

she 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

    This is a Dead Milkmen cover. Some of the lyrics are messed up but I don't feel like pointing them out. This song rocks.

Silent Planet
I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.

Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
