Standard (EADGBE)

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
