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 days

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 P-U-N-K 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 days

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 P-U-N-K 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, it's 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 days

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 P-U-N-K girl

Painful way

Utopia

New wave dreams

Kid in her

P-U-N-K girl
