If you need a place to stay
Welcome to the punk house
It's a party every day
Living in a punk house
Stay awhile and sit and smoke a cigarette
La la la la
Thers's always something happening here
when you're in a punk house
Cheap food and even cheaper beer
Are always in a punk house
Jump up and down, dance on the couch
Stuff a potato in your mouth
La la la
Life goes by way too fast
To spend it working for somebody else
It don't make any sense
If you like it here why don't you stay
Don't wanna work? Well that's O.K.
Cause no-one else here wants to get a real job
Come on down, hang out with us
Hang out at a punk house
Don't mind all the filth and grime and muck
Cause it's just a punk house
Spaghetti stains on the walls
And creepy insects in the halls
We'll have a ball
Young and dirt poor and having fun
And we're never growing up
