    Lyrics

    (Jackson, Ridarick)

    The boys & girls riding round on the subway

    Staring down with their eyes on the screen

    Flying by like a plane down the runway

    Here he comes: the King of the Streets



    Surf Punk!

    He was the Deep South’s only
    
Glam Rockin’, Gum-chewin’ Surf Punk!

    He was a skateboardin’ love machine 
    
Rolls up next to the train in the subway

    Hairspray makes him look 7ft tall

    White vinyl boots step on to the skateboard

    He rides for miles & miles & miles, just having a ball



    Surf Punk! He was the Deep South’s only
    
Glam Rockin, Gum-chewin’
S
    urf Punk! He was a fast movin’ love machine

    Surf Punk! He was a Spandex-lovin’, elbow-shovin’

    Surf Punk! He was a skateboardin’ teenage dream



    They said he couldn’t read
    
It just came to him naturally



    Surf Punk! He was the Deep South’s only

    Glam Rockin’, Gum-chewin’

    Surf Punk! He was a skateboardin’ love machine

    Surf Punk! He was a Midtown-shoppin’

    Quaalude-poppin’ Surf Punk!
    
He was a free-loadin’ teenage dream



    He was a Sidewalk Submarine

    If you know just what I mean



    He was a: Hot-roddin’, Pill-poppin’, Mind-blowin’, Flame-throwin’, Fist-pumpin’
, Hard-Rockin’, Side-steppin’, Fast-movin’, Free-loadin’, Gum-chewin’
, Well-oiled, Hard Boiled, High-flyin’, Boot-Buyin’...
