Get A Haircut Lyrics
I was a rebel from the day i left school
Grew my hair long and broke all the rules
I'd sit and listen to my records all day
With big ambitions of where i could play
My parents taught me what life was 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
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
And now I party all night, I sleep all day
I met this chick she was my number one 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
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
Get a real job, why don't you get a real job
Get a real job, why don't you get a real job
I hit the big time with my rock 'n' roll band
The future's brighter now than I'd ever planned
I'm ten times richer than my big brother bob
And he, he's got a haircut he's got a real job
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
Get a real job, why don't you get a real job
Get a real job, why don't you get a real job
(solo)
Grew my hair long and broke all the rules
I'd sit and listen to my records all day
With big ambitions of where i could play
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
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 told myself that it was all a bad dream
I found a band and some good songs to play
And now I party all night, I sleep all day
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
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
Get a real job, why don't you get a real job
The future's brighter now than I'd ever planned
I'm ten times richer than my big brother bob
And he, he's got a haircut he's got 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
Get a real job, why don't you get a real job

I can't believe nobody's commented on this song yet! This, along with Bad to the Bone and I Drink Alone, is one of my favorite George Thorogood songs. He don't care what anybody says--he rocks the way he wants to, and pays no attention to people telling him how to live. Sounds a lot like me...That's why I love this song.
No one commented because it's so self explanatory.
i ant had a haircut for 4 months and iv never had i real job!!!

I love this song XP is so my future!
Haha, I remember my dad listening to this song when I was a kid.
Probably what my life will amount to xD
This is such a fun song, I wonder if Bob Thorogood enjoys it.....when I have my hair long I have my best jobs while when I had a haircut I was working minimum wage jobs
