EXISTENTIALIST  PUNK


I am an existentialist punk.
I don’t read all that tabloid junk.
Just give me a book 
by Jean-Paul Sartre,
the Pillars of Wisdom 
or some Surreal art.
I am an existentialist – PUNK.
an existentialist – PUNK.
an existentialist – PUNK.
I am an existentialist – PUNK.
Oh, yes I am.

I am a one-off punk.
I may look weird
 and smell like a skunk;
have a ring through my nose
and wear all black leather clothes,
but ask me a question
about Friedrich Nietzsche
and I’ll show you 
that I’m not thick!

 I am an existentialist punk.
We’re not all stupid –
don’t believe that bunk;
‘cos - I got a university degree;
a first class honours in Philosophy.

I am – I am – I am –I am –
an existentialist – PUNK.
I am – I am – I am –I am –
an existentialist – PUNK.

I am an existentialist punk.
Just ‘cos I’ve got orange hair
and you hear me spit and swear,
it doesn’t mean I’m dumb and dull
‘cos there’s a brain inside my skull.

I am – I am – I am –I am –
an existentialist – PUNK.
I am – I am – I am –I am –
an existentialist – PUNK.

I’m not stupid like a coot
just ‘cos I wear bovver boots;
for I am just an elite punk
who doesn’t read that tabloid junk.

I am – I am – I am –I am –
an existentialist – PUNK.
I am – I am – I am –I am –
an existentialist – PUNK.

Just give me a book 
by Jean-Paul Sartre,
the Pillars of Wisdom 
or some Surreal art.

Existentialism.

I am – I am – I am –I am –
an existentialist – PUNK.
I am – I am – I am –I am –
an existentialist – PUNK.

I am – I am – I am –I am –
an existentialist – PUNK.
I am – I am – I am –I am –
an existentialist – PUNK.
