People say she's bad
But they don't see
The way she is with me
P is for the painful way she makes me feel some day
U is for Utopia, the other times with her
N is for the new wave dreams she had back in her teens
K is for the kid in her, my punk girl

She is honest and kind but in a way that people see
As telling lies and being mean
She has thousands of dreams but what they are I'll never know
I hope I figure in them though

I don't care if they can't see
Just how great that girl can be
But I wish, she'd find a way
To act well, for just one day
I don't mind if they can't see
Just how much she means to me
I still know what I will say
If that girl comes my way

P is for the painful way she makes me feel some day
U is for Utopia, the other times with her
N is for the new wave dreams she had back in her teens
K is for the kid in her, my punk girl

She is hardened to hurt her softness hidden from the world
But almost ready to unfurl
She tries so hard to change but something always happens to
Persuade her its too hard to do

I don't care if they can't see
Just how great that girl can be
But I wish, she'd find a way
To act well, for just one day
I don't mind if they can't see
Just how much she means to me
I still know what I will say
If that girl comes my way

P is for the painful way she makes me feel some day
U is for Utopia, the other times with her
N is for the new wave dreams she had back in her teens
K is for the kid in her, my punk girl

Painful way
Utopia
New wave dreams
Kid in her
Punk girl!
