"Punk Rock Girl" -- Dead Milkmen
(I think you could play this song with either regular or power chords,
but I think it sounds better with regular chords on a nylon stringed
guitar, preferably with an amp pickup)
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
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
Let's go slam dance
We'll dress like Minnie Pearl just you and me punk rock girl
(this part is sung-spoken but what the hell)
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
And 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
Your father's a vice president
Rich as the Duke of Earl yeah, you're for me punk rock girl
(guitar solo, kind of -- I'm too lazy to tab it)
(same as before with the D A bit)
We went to a shopping mall and laughed at all the shoppers
The 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 know Mojo Nixon then your store could use some fixin'
(etc)
We got into a car and away we started rollin'
I asked how much she paid for it, she said "Nothin' man, it's stolen"
Punk rock girl you look so wild
Let's have a child
We'll name her Minnie Pearl just you and me
We'll travel round the world just you and me punk rock girl
fan, I just heard this song on the radio and liked it... Later, E. Hulka
