Define Punk Rock

Define Punk Rock
And I'll buy you a beer

For over 30 years I've wondered
What Punk rock is all about
For over 30 years I've wondered
Is it all about the scream and shout

Maybe Elvis and Bill Hailey
Kicked off Punk Rock
Maybe Bob Marley and Lee Perry
Kicked off Punk Rock
Maybe Afrika Bambaata
Was pure Punk Rock
Maybe the Clash and the Pistols
Were never Punk Rock

Maybe the back of a Guttermouth tshirt
Has defined Punk Rock
'A loud,fast and deliberately offensive form of Rock music'
It says in all it's screenprint glory
I think defining Punk Rock is an ongoing story
So I'm off to buy myself a beer
