Intro: G5 C5 D5
                              
G5
 I was a rebel from the day I left school
C5
 I grew my hair long and broke all the rules
D5
 I'd sit and listen to my records all day
C5
 With big ambitions of when I could play
G5
 My parents taught me what life is about
C5
 So I grew up the type they warned me about
D5
 They said my friends were just an unruly mob
C5             N/C/
 And I should get a haircut and get a real job

CHORUS
G5
 Get a haircut and get a real job  
C5
 Clean your act up and don't be a slob
D5
 Get it together like your big brother Bob
                   C5                            D5
    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
         G5          C5                      
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
