Got a pink Mohawk Got a bullet belt I've got a snarl That's made in hell Got a leather jacket With lots of studs Got an attitude That says get fucked Hate capitalism Won't work for the man Smash up your house Just as fast as I can Shit on your floor Piss in your bath You'll have to deal With my aftermath I like to get drunk I like to swear Spend a lot of time Putting up my hair I'll wreck your car I'll steal your cash Cause you're bourgeois And I think you're trash Leopard print, tartan, safety pins Band Patches, bum flaps, ain't no sin I Listen to music that's really fast Life is short it's not meant to last I can be rude just as much as I choose I spit on you and your normie shoes I tell other people they dress like junk I tell other people they'll never be free I tell other punks they've got it wrong You might think you're a punk But you're not punker than me Automatic punk Automatic punk Automatic punk Just add water Automatic punk Automatic punk Automatic punk Just add water Just add water Just add water

When I open my mouth and the shit comes out I always look away That's when I say I'll never do it again That will be someday I've tried so many times before It's always been in vain I guess my mouth just thinks before my brain Why do I talk so much? Why do I open my mouth? Why do I talk so much? Just to get things out I know I speak my mind that's true Do you want something less? I got something to say to you That's ok I guess Ok, 1, 2, diddly iddly after you But everything is turning to a mess Why do I talk so much? Why do I open my mouth? Why do I talk so much? Just to get things out

about

This punk-inspired album has been a long time in the making as many of the songs were written in the mid-1990s and are only being released for the first time.

With titles like 'Anne', ‘Buy me a Beer’, 'That Boy Over There Likes You’, 'Is Anyone Sitting in That Chair?’, ‘Nicotine Stains’ and the title song ‘Automatic Punk’, every song has the potential to be a HIT on its own.

With a punchy, poppy, post-punk feel, this synth-punk album is just under 20 minutes in length and consists of 13 tracks, with the longest song playing at 2.21.

This album is a total DIY experience. Each song was created synthetically by The Wayward Woman using an iPad and Garage Band and was recorded in her living room on a RODE microphone and mixed and mastered on her computer using a combination of the programs ‘Soundtrap’ and ‘Bandlab’.

Additional lyrics on 'James' and 'That Boy Over There Likes You' by Kylie Greer.

Backing vocals are by the legendary deathpunk singer Paula Damnzal (Velvet Hammer, Küntsquäd), punk stalwart and crust punk singer Bucky (Warpspasm, Y Not), Delwyn Innes (Y Not) and Kylie Greer.
