Hey everybody take a look at me,
|
I've got street credibility,
|
I may not have a job,
|
But I have a good time,
|
With the boys that I meet "down on the line"
|
|
I DON'T NEED YOU
|
So you don't approve,
|
Well, who asked you to?
|
HEY, JERK YOU WORK
|
This guy's got better things to do
|
HELL
|
I ain't never gonna work, get down in the dirt
|
I choose, to cruise
|
Gonna live my life, sharp as a knife
|
I've found my groove and I just can't lose
|
I'm style from head to toe
|
Cool cat flash gonna let you know
|
I'm a soul boy - I'm a dole boy -
|
Take pleasure in leisure, I believe in joy!
|
|
[CHORUS:]
|
WHAM!
|
BAM!
|
I AM!
|
A MAN!
|
JOB OR NO JOB
|
YOU CAN'T TELL ME THAT I'M NOT
|
DO!
|
YOU!
|
ENJOY WHAT YOU DO?
|
IF NOT
|
JUST STOP!
|
DON'T STAY THERE AND ROT!
|
|
Party nights, and neon lights
|
We hit the floors, we hit the heights
|
Dancing shoes, and pretty girls
|
Boys in leather kiss girls in pearls!
|
Hot - damn! Everybody, let's play!
|
So they promised you a good job - NO WAY!
|
One, two, three, rap!
|
C'mon everybody, DON'T NEED THIS CRAP!
|
|
[CHORUS]
|
|
IF YOU'RE A PUB MAN
|
OR A CLUB MAN
|
MAYBE A JET BLACK GUY WITH A HIP HI-FI
|
A WHITE COOL CAT WITH A TRILBY HAT
|
MAYBE LEATHER AND STUDS IS WHERE YOU'RE AT
|
MAKE THE MOST OF EVERY DAY
|
DON'T LET HARD TIMES STAND IN YOUR WAY
|
GIVE A WHAM GIVE A BAM BUT DON'T GIVE A DAMN
|
'COS THE BENEFIT GANG ARE GONNA PAY!
|
|
Now reach up high and touch your soul
|
The boys from Wham! will help you reach that goal
|
It's gonna break your mama's heart (so sad)
|
It's gonna break your daddy's heart (too bad)
|
Just throw the dice and take my advice
|
'Cos I know that you're smart
|
Can you dig this thing? (YEAH!)
|
Are you gonna get down? (YEAH!)
|
Say Wham! WHAM!
|
Say Bam! BAM!
|
|
[CHORUS x3]
|
|
Do you wanna work
|
Are you gonna have fun
|
Do you wanna be a jerk
|
Are you gonna stay young
|
|
Everybody say WHAM!
|
Say BAM!
|
Everybody say WHAM!
|
Say WHAM! BAM!
