Punk Rock Parranda Lyrics

Lyric discussion by Asara 

Cover art for Punk Rock Parranda lyrics by Gogol Bordello

Just a few wrong things:

If you don't see no punks in downtown You know this town is dying quick. I guarantee you in this town You'll have a trouble finding goddamn prostitute

In this kind of town The girls are stingy, and guys are broke In this kind of town You will be always dying for a poke

In this kind of town sociological balance is upset And in this kind of town The women they never get wet

And in this kind of town Music is only background of dying And in this kind of town Oh!

So that's when I pull over on a taxi-co With my new friends from Mexica And with unlimited budget kontrabanda We started new punk rock Parranda (Oh punk. Punk!)

If music doesn't come from windows You know that something's definitely wrong (It's fucking wrong!) And all the cars, they pass by in silence And rollerbladers who roll straight into morgue

And if there is no guitar in a house You know its owner, he cannot be trusted And if there is no drum set in the office Don't be surprised when the business get busted

And if your spouse doesn't play a sitar Don't expect a whole lot of commitment And if President doesn't play the sax He will not get an under-table treatment

And in this kind of town Say you kick somebody in the head They just politely sue you But mad, no they don't get mad!

So that's when I pull over on a taxi-co With my new friends from Mexica And with unlimited budget kontrabanda We started new samba!

[Ukrainian]

And in this kind of town Sociological balance is upset And in this kind of town The women they never get wet
