Mommy Was A Punk Rock Queen

from Yonder by Kelly Pardekooper

/

lyrics

Have you ever seen her when she walks into the room?
Better keep your eyes below her boy she’ll cut you in two
And she won’t even notice if you try and catch her eye
Yeah she knows all you local boys, you best not even try
She still wants to be anarchy

And every day come 5 o’clock, She’ll be downtown belly-up
At any happy hour that will still have her around
She’s a bit past 54 and she don’t pogo anymore
The tattoos they’re all fading and she can’t afford to score
She still wants to be anarchy

But have you seen her? Have you seen her smile?

She’s got staples in her cheeks, and she thinks that Nirvana’s weak
The Pistols and the Misfits is all she will listen to
Yeah Mommy was a punk rock girl, chase her down and she might hurl
That venom you’ve been looking for but you know you’ll never use
She still wants to be anarchy

But have you seen her? Have you seen her? Have you seen her smile?
