She answered our ad wanted |
|
We had a vacancy |
|
We didn't know what was in store |
|
But we were soon to see |
|
She plays records of The Foreskins |
|
At any given hour |
|
She turns on the hot water tap |
|
While I'm in the shower |
|
And at night the house is quiet |
|
You might wonder why |
|
But punk's not dead |
|
She's just gone to bed |
|
Punk's not dead |
|
She's just gone to bed |
|
Couldn't give a damn about |
|
The friends of mine she'll scare |
|
Some people just can't see past studs |
|
And bleached blond spiky hair |
|
I say 'A' for Abba |
|
She says 'A' for Anarchy |
|
In the morning she says "Never mind the bollocks, |
|
Here's your cup of tea" |
|
And at night the house is quiet |
|
You might wonder why |
|
But punk's not dead |
|
She's just gone to bed |
|
Punk's not dead |
|
She's just gone to bed |
|
I pass her in the kitchen |
|
She's got a longneck in her hand |
|
She's playing me a Dictaphone |
|
Recording of her band |
|
Her drummer has been playing |
|
For nearly seven hours |
|
But he hits them with such passion |
|
It makes other drummers cower |
|
When the night has come |
|
All safety pins must come undone |
|
If the house is quiet |
|
Well that's because punk's retired for the night |
|
If the house is quiet |
|
Well punk's retired for the night |
|
Yeah she's retired for the night |
|
If the house is quiet |
|
Well that's because tonight |
|
There's one little punk rock girl |
|
Who's dead to the world |
