Intro: G X4 bars
                               
(G) I was a rebel from the day I left school 
(G) I grew my hair long and broke all the rules 
(C) I'd sit and listen to my records all day 
(D) With big ambitions of when I could play 
 
(G) My parents taught me what life is about 
(G) So I grew up the type they warned me about 
(C) They said my friends were just an unruly mob 
(D) And I should (NC) get a haircut and get a real job 
 
 
(G) Get a haircut and get a real job   
(G) Clean your act up and don't be a slob 
(C) Get it together like your big brother Bob 
    Why don't you, (D) get a haircut and get a real (G) 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   (G) 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
