Just saw this and had to pass it on here...
ENJOY!
One Saturday I took a walk to Zipperhead I met a girl there And she almost knocked me dead Punk rock girl please look at me Punk rock girl what do you see? Let's travel round the world Just you and me punk rock girl
I tapped her on the shoulder And said do you have a beau? She looked at me and smiled And said she did not know Punk rock girl give me a chance Punk rock girl let's go slamdance We'll dress like Minnie Pearl Just you and me punk rock girl
We went to the Phillie Pizza Company And ordered some hot tea The waitress said "Well no We only have it iced" So we jumped up on the table And shouted "anarchy" And someone played a Beach Boys song On the jukebox It was "California Dreamin'" So we started screamin' "On such a winter's day"
She took me to her parents For a Sunday meal Her father took one look at me And he began to squeal Punk rock girl it makes no sense Punk rock girl your dad is the Vice President Rich as the Duke of Earl Yeah you're for me punk rock girl
We went to a shopping mall And laughed at all the shoppers And security guards trailed us To a record shop We asked for Mojo Nixon They said "He don't work here" We said "If you don't got Mojo Nixon Then your store could use some fixin'"
We got into a car Away we started rollin' I said "How much you pay for this?" She said "Nothing man, it's stolen" Punk rock girl you look so wild Punk rock girl let's have a child We'll name her Minnie Pearl Just you and me Eating fudge banana swirl Just you and me We'll travel round the world Just you and me punk rock girl

The cover band I was in back in college (10 years ago- dammit...) covered this tune. We'd usually bookend it in with some Led Zeppelin and whatever other classic rock / jam band covers we were doing. The frat boys were generally confused.
It is a little weird, but for some reason I have always remembered the "Mojo Nixon" and "nothing man it's stolen" line from that song (actually the music video). I think they used to play the music video a lot, which is also weird because I never really watched videos much.
Show of hands - who's actually been to Zipperhead?
raises hand
And BTW, thanks for the awesome link - I'm filling iTunes with free Mojo & Skid goodness as we speak.
By the way, you know that Mojo would totally dig this: http://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/off-topic-discussion/heaven-im-in-heaven/14789/page1/
