Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

I was a rebel from the day I left school

I grew my hair long and broke all the rules

I'd sit and listen to my records all day

With big ambitions of when I could play

My parents taught me what life is about

So I grew up the type they warned me about

They said my friends were just an unruly mob

And I should [ get a haircut and get a real job

Chorus

Get a haircut and get a real job

Clean your act up and don't be a slob

Get it together like your big brother Bob

  Why don't you, get a haircut and get a real job

I even tried that 9 to 5 scene

I told myself that it was all a bad dream

I found a band and some good songs to play

Now I party all night and I sleep all day

I met this chick, she was my number 1 fan

She took me home to meet her mommy and dad

They took one look at me and said "Oh, my god"

Get a haircut and get a real job

 CHORUS Get a real job (4x) Why don't you

I hit the big time with my rock-n-roll band

The future's brighter now then I'd ever planned

I'm 10 times richer than my big brother Bob

He's got a haircut and he's got a real job

CHORUS Get a real job (4x) Why don't you
