PUNK ROCK GIRL
Well, somebody had to introduce some comic relief into all of this grimness, and the Dead Milkmen certainly fit the bill. They managed to come up with a hit song on college radio, “Punk Rock Girl”; the video on MTV was filled with bloopers and out-takes and shots of a green Mohawk waving back and forth. There was even an “answer song” by a band called the Excessories called “Punk Rock Boy” that, if anything, was even better.
