Lyrics for Judy is a Punk as interpreted by Maxine

Judy is a Punk Lyrics
Jackie is a punk
Judy is a runt
They both went down to Berlin, joined the Ice Capades
And oh, I don't know why
Oh, I don't know why
Perhaps they'll die.
Second verse, same as the first
Third verse, different from the first.
Jackie is a punk
Judy is a runt
They both went down to Frisco, joined the SLA
And oh, I don't know why
Oh, I don't know why
Perhaps they'll die.

One of my favorites, especially sped up. It doesn't sound right otherwise.

According to her profile, Perfection19102002 is still underage. At least she won't be an alocoholic tossbag like you, lilcrow.

This song is great. It's about two badass chicks joining the forces during the Cold War (when this song was written/recorded)..least i think so, what about everyone else

RIP JOEY, JOHNNY, DEE DEE. gone but never forgotten

there is also word that Jackie and Judy were obsessive Ramones fans who died in a plane crash. This song rocks, also check out THE RETURN OF JACKIE AND JUDY. the TOm Waits version also rocks

the fact that they did die soon after the song was recorded makes the lyrics "perhaps theyll die" kind of creepy

The SLA is:

The Symbionese Liberation Army was an American paramilitary group that considered itself to be a revolutionary vanguard army and was a proponent of radical ideology. Members of the group were accused and convicted of committing murders, bank robberies, and acts of violence between 1973 and 1975. Even though they never had more than 13 members, they became the top ongoing media story during their underground fugitive period[citation needed]. More than anything else, this was generated by their spectacular kidnapping of wealthy media heiress Patty Hearst, making them household names. Even more newsworthy were later developments in which Hearst seemed to become more and more sympathetic with the aims of the SLA and eventually joined the group, taking part in their illegal activities, including bank robberies.

One punk, one poser out to do something to define themselves as women with a risk of death.
That's all I get out of it.
It's fun to do the can-can to.
By the way, that little 11 year that was bashing the whole coca-cola thing, not even old enough to drink- get the fuck over yourself.
Bastard.

"Judy is a Punk" was written by Joey about two streetwise girls. The SLA line refers to Patty Hearst. Although the first line is "Jackie is a punk," the title may have been changed to avoid offending supporters of Jackie Onassis. "Second verse, same as the first" is from "I'm Henry the VIII I Am" by Herman's Hermits, and "Perhaps they'll die" is a joke from the old children's song "There was an old lady who swallowed a fly" (perhaps she'll die).
