Hey everybody take a look at me,
Ive got street credibility,
I may not have a job,
But I have a good time,
With the boys that I meet down on the line
I dont need you
So you dont approve,
Well, who asked you to?
Hey, jerk you work
This guys got better things to do
Hell
I aint never gonna work, get down in the dirt
I choose, to cruise
Gonna live my life, sharp as a knife
Ive found my groove and I just cant lose
Im style from head to toe
Cool cat flash gonna let you know
Im a soul boy - Im a dole boy -
Take pleasure in leisure, I believe in joy!
Chorus:
Wham!
Bam!

A man!
Job or no job
You cant tell me that Im not
Do!

Enjoy what you do?
If not
Just stop!
Dont stay there and rot!
Party nights, and neon lights
We hit the floors, we hit the heights
Dancing shoes, and pretty girls
Boys in leather kiss girls in pearls!
Hot - damn! everybody, lets play!
So they promised you a good job - no way!
One, two, three, rap!
Cmon everybody, dont need this crap!
Chorus
If youre a pub man
Or a club man
Maybe a jet black guy with a hip hi-fi
A white cool cat with a trilby hat
Maybe leather and studs is where youre at
Make the most of every day
Dont let hard times stand in your way
Give a wham give a bam but dont give a damn
cos the benefit gang are gonna pay!
Now reach up high and touch your soul
The boys from wham! will help you reach that goal
Its gonna break your mamas heart (so sad)
Its gonna break your daddys heart (too bad)
Just throw the dice and take my advice
cos I know that youre smart
Can you dig this thing? (yeah!)
Are you gonna get down? (yeah!)
Say wham! wham!
Say bam! bam!
Chorus x3
Do you wanna work
Are you gonna have fun
Do you wanna be a jerk
Are you gonna stay young
Everybody say wham!
Say bam!
Everybody say wham!
Say wham! bam!
