St Pauli
Art Brut * Track #3 On It’s a Bit Complicated
St Pauli Lyrics
Friends, near complete family
At times they don't understand me
Birthday, Christmas they send all love
We both know it's just not enough

Even though it's plain to see

As part of the team
Punk rock ist nicht tot

Sorry if my accent's flawed
I learnt my German from a 7 inch record
Punk rock ist nicht tot
Punk rock ist nicht tot
Punk rock ist nicht tot
Punk rock ist nicht tot
The kids don't like it, the kids don't like it

What else can we do when the kids don't like it
Ahh, yeah
