Lyrics

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
