The Punk Syndrome Page #4
All alone
because the girl didn't show
All alone
because the girl didn't show
He knows
the sound of her footsteps so well
And at night
his peace of mind has gone astray
Even when he's asleep,
he waits in vain
He wishes that the fall of those
French heels would stop and then
For one moment, however small
He could see the girl again
You should show me
on your computer... - No, I won't!
How babies are made.
- No, I won't.
In case Sirkka and I
want to have a baby
That's not my problem.
It's none of my business.
- It's Kari and Sirkka's problem.
You see, I don't want children.
I don't ever want to become a dad.
Kalle! Sami doesn't want
to show me...
because he doesn't want
to become a father.
To show you what?
- I-low babies are made.
Well, well. Didn't they
teach you that in school?
Watch this.
He wasn't interested in me at all.
"I have to go to the gym."
You're too good for him, Terhi.
Where's Building N?
Let's behave ourselves, okay?
- You'll be okay.
Yeah, yeah.
Anyone got a tissue?
Oh yes.
Hello.
- Hello.
Here's the kid.
- What a lovely baby.
We're very grateful that
you had a wonderful little child...
and we want to give you
heartfelt congratulations...
with this fine card.
It's for you and the little one.
- Thank you, Pertti.
Is the baby healthy?
What a lovely baby!
Can he see anything?
- He sure can.
You mean he can see us?
- If you stand close.
Why does he keep his eyes shut then?
He just woke up.
Look, this is Pertti.
- I'm here.
- That's a good reason to cry.
We hope you have a happy family
and don't quarrel too much.
And that there is no hate.
You need warmth and love
when you have a small baby
He needs warmth, love and
loveliness. - He'll get those.
I look like my mother.
Have you seen the photo?
- Yes.
My mother died in 1992.
and asked
"Your mother?" they said.
"Your mother passed away."
I felt very sad.
I felt sad because
No one called to tell me...
that Pertti Kurikka's mother
had passed away
They had a funeral for my mother,...
but no one told me.
Audience, if you wanna dance,...
dance, for f***'s sake!
They discuss
all kinds of things in Parliament
But I can't make out what they say
They make promises in Parliament
And break them everyday
I hate Parliament
I hate this world
I hate Parliament
I hate this world
I hate this world
I hate this world
You want to hear more?
More, goddammit!
Thanks. Toni, Pertti, Kari and Sami,
come to the office.
Come here.
Come on in. - Let's go,
Pertti Kurikka's Name Day
Let's see what's in here.
Guys, here's the first one.
- Here we go.
Our first record.
- Take a look. The black record.
Here you go.
- Thank you.
Here you go.
- Thank you.
Here you go.
- Thank you.
Here you go.
- Thank you.
Here you go.
- Thank you.
Pertti Kurikka's Name Day
Red Lounge Records.
I knew it.
- Great.
Both covers look great.
Guess who did that?
- You.
Yes, I did the artwork.
This is pretty awesome.
This is your record. - Oh, yes.
I have a reason to be grateful.
This is wonderful.
Next Tuesday we'll start
working on our second single.
Let's celeb rate the record
with a cup of coffee!
Toni, are you happy?
- Yes.
We have Pertti and Kari from Pertti
Kurikka's Name Day in the studio.
I won't stay in this group home
This has been going on too long
I can't take it any more
I'll move into my friend's house
You just had your birthday
and got engaged.
Congratulationsl
Well, I'm actually having
my engagement party today
That sounds great.
You have a lot of gigs and
people are buying your records.
People know you better.
Do people come up to you and say hi?
Like, "Kari, what's up?" - Yes.
Sometimes strangers will
come up to me in Kallio and say,...
"You're the singer
of Pertti Kurikka's Name Day"
But I don't mind; I'm cool with it.
Sounds good. I'm glad
you could make it to our show.
Have a nice summer and good gigs.
- Thank you.
It's Kari.
At least you didn't chicken out.
- No.
At last.
We've been waiting five years.
Which hand?
Beautiful.
Congratulations!
- Congratulations, Sirkka and Kari!
Congratulationsl
Everyone wants to clink
their glasses.
Congratulations, Kari!
- Thank you.
I-low does it feel to be engaged?
It's been a busy day but...
one has to move ahead in life
and have a woman.
When you're 35, you have
to settle down with a woman.
I'm not a teenager any more.
Even though I have gigs and all,...
I like to spend as much time
with Sirkka as possible...
when I don't have gigs.
One must take care of
both business and women.
Aren't you going to kiss me
goodbye? - Of course I am.
See you.
- Sure.
I'll come visit you next week.
- It's a date.
Bye bye, Finland!
- Bye bye, activity center!
It was nice knowing you.
See you around!
See you in December!
- December?
When I met you, we had fun
But then you started
acting abnormally
One, two, three, four!
You're not normal No, no, no
You're not normal No, no, no
You're not normal
Can you feel it?
- Yes!
Look that way or that way
- Sure.
F***. Goddammit.
Kari, look here.
- Slut!
Kalle, stop it!
I'll never forgive you.
I didn't apologize.
I don't want to forgive anybody.
I'll tell you what I think.
I'll tell you how it goes.
That's the kind of guy I am.
I'm a tough guy
You don't want to piss me off.
I'd be happy to break a finger.
I don't want to hang out
with anyone.
I'm not friends with anyone.
That's the way it is.
I'm not friends with anyone.
My hatred is growing.
I hate Sami Helle.
I'll hit Sami Helle.
Where are you taking us?
- There's a... - F***.
There's the Beatles memorial,
if you're interested.
I'm sorry I got a bit angry
- it's okay
There's so much on my mind.
You must be tired.
You've been working so hard.
Yes, I'm tired.
Everything's alright, Pertti.
Hang in there.
Am I still tired?
- A bit, but that's alright.
I'm trying my best,
but I'm just so tired.
Tomorrow you can chill out all day.
Sound good? - Yes.
Kalle, is that table dancing?
Yes, girls dance
boogie-woogie on the table.
They dance boogie-Woogie?
- That's right.
Sami, what happened?
Get up.
Stop staring at tits
and watch where you're going.
This is a dangerous street.
- I see d*cks. A dick!
A dick! D*cks!
There are whores! A whore!
Wowzers, what a chick! Damn.
Whoa! Look at those tits!
Look! There it is.
That's the Beatles playing a gig.
Play boogie-woogie!
We'll play boogie-woogie
like never before.
Here's Sami Helle.
Toni Vlitalo.
Pertti Kurikka and Kari.
Sankt Pauli and Reeperbahn
That is where I left my heart
Pertti isn't normal
Good evening, Germany!
I love you!
Pertti Kurikka's Name Day!
You're not normal
You're not normal
You're not normal
You're abnormal
When I met you, we had fun
But then you started
