Starting with the lyrics to punk rawk show. we ain't go no place to go so let's go to the punk rock show darling take me by the hand we're gonna see a punk rawk band notice the intricate spelling of the word, "rawk." What does this mean? Could it be an underground mass hysteria? A disgusting calmn falling over an empty crowded room? We go further. The song "I'm Ok, You're OK" is this a false sense of hope or just a rip-off of yuppy literature? "What's going on tonight? Is everything alright? I hope that nothing's wrong. I haven't seen youin so long. I'm away, you're here to stay and I'm away and you're ok You're here to stay and I'm away, you're here to stay and I'm ok" Notice how repitition is key. Delving further... Do Your Feet Hurt. "Can I call you sweetheart or even baby doll? If I had your number, you'd be getting a phone call" Pay attention to the number of times a reference to the telephone is made. Move to Bermerton: "When I meet a special girl She always lives somewhere else in the world I don't want to call her on the phone I wanna talk to her when I'm at home" Doing Time. "I remember times I had some were happy, some were sad memories me and my partners in crime throwing up a thousand times I got through it, I feel fine I went to school and did my time In a sense I'm out, in a sense I'm free to be what I wanna be" "I never did homework after school did all the things I thought were cool went out every Friday night I still do and I'm alright." Notice how every line rhymes a simple and beautiful rhythmic message.
