Joe Is A Remedial Lyrics

I went to school, but I dropped out
When I got home, my Mum did shout
'You're a Remo
Woah-oh-oh, a Remo'

I quit my job, what a rut
My Dad told me to grow up
Cus I'm a Remo
Woah-oh-oh, a Remo

Everybody says I'm backwards
And you know they could be right
But ??? says I'll be OK
As long as I can jerk off all day
Now everything is gonna be alright

Woah-oh
Cus I'm a Remo
Woah-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Cus I'm a Remo
So I'll never be like you

Everybody says I'm backwards
And you know they could be wrong
But I don't care what they say
I'm gonna go out anyway
With my stupid friends all singing Griswalds songs

Cus I'm a Remo
Woah-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Cus I'm a Remo
So I'll never be like you
Cus I'm a Remo
Woah-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Cus I'm a Remo
So I'll never be like you

I went to school, but I dropped out
When I got home, my Mum did shout
'You're a Remo
Woah-oh-oh, a Remo'

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

I'm not sure if these are 100% accurate - the third verse in particular I've probably fucked up a lot. But it's the best I could manage by ear. And if the line about jerking off all day is wrong, then I apologise deeply to Joe Atom for suggesting that this might be what he does with his day.

And also, Remo is apparantly short for 'Remedial'.

...Hence the title. Something tells me that was somewhat obvious - suppose I'm a bit of a remo for that one.
