Streetlight Manifesto – 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 slamdance
We'll dress like Minnie Pearl
Just you and me punk rock girl

We went to the Phillie 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 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 a car
Away we started rollin'
I said 'How much you pay for this?'
She said 'Nothing 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, eating fudge banana swirl
Just you and me, we'll travel round the world
Just you and me, punk rock girl
