Punk Rock Baby

When I came outta my mama
They cut my umbilical cord
I thought, «Hey man, what are you doing?»
And I let out a mighty roar!
I got my first piercing when they stabbed me with a pin,
Pumped me full of something
And hit me in the shin!
Ever since that moment,
I’ve just been full of scorn,
I’ve been a punk rock baby since the day that I was born
I got my first mohawk
At the age of one
Stole my old man’s razor
And then the job was done.
I got a leather jacket
At the age of two
Put spikes all over it, with some super glue.
I started scratching at my pants
Until they were all torn
I’ve been a punk rock baby since the day that I was born.
I picked up my first electric guitar
At the age of three
Turned the volume up just as high as it could be
I yelled into the mic about all the things I felt
About this nasty world and the cards we’ve all been dealt
About the toxic sludge that made me angry and forlorn
I’ve been a punk rock baby since the day that I was born.
I dropped out of nursery school
At the age of four
I said, «Hey, this place is boring,
I am going out the door!»
I headed straight downtown
I sat down in the park
Met some other punks
Stayed out 'til way past dark
Partied 'til the dawn
Came back home in the morn'
I’ve been a punk rock baby since the day that I was born.
I moved into a squat, at the age of five.
Behind the barricades I waited
For the cops to arrive
I climbed onto the roof and said,
«Here's where I’m gonna to stay
And I’m going to be a rebel
Until I’m old and grey!
Between the toes of your estabilshment
I’ll always be a thorn.
I’ve been a punk rock baby since the day that I was born.»
