I'm clicking the remote
But there's nothing on tv
I wanna have some action
So I go out on the streets
People stare at me
They give me angry eyes
I'm the only punk in town
And again i realise
It's quiet in the city
It's quiet in my town
See the people laughing
Cos I'm the only one around
What happened to punk?
People think i am a clown
If there were just a few more punx
They wouldn't stare and frown
I spray "punk" on a wall
They won't get me on my knees
I'll show that punk is in this town
A shame the only punk is me....
Today i saw some new punx
How happy can i be
A new generation
The start of a new scene?
We've got to go togehter
I'm sure we'll get along
Now i'm sure that i was right
Punk wil never end
Now there is a riot
a riot in the city
Now there is a riot
a riot in my town
