Artist: Silhouettes Song: Get a Job Sha na na na, sha na na na na, Sha na na na, sha na na na na, Sha na na na, sha na na na na, Sha na na na, sha na na na na, Yip yip yip yip yip yip yip yip Mum mum mum mum mum mum Get a job Sha na na na, sha na na na na Every morning about this time she get me out of my bed a-crying get a job. After breakfast, everyday, she throws the want ads right my way And never fails to say, Get a job Sha na na na, sha na na na na Sha na na na, sha na na na na, Sha na na na, sha na na na na, Sha na na na, sha na na na na, Yip yip yip yip yip yip yip yip Mum mum mum mum mum mum Get a job Sha na na na, sha na na na na And when I get the paper I read it through and through And my girl never fails to say If there is any work for me, And when I go back to the house I hear the woman's mouth Preaching and a crying, Tell me that I'm lying 'bout a job That I never could find. Sha na na na, sha na na na na, Sha na na na, sha na na na na, Sha na na na, sha na na na na, Sha na na na, sha na na na na, Yip yip yip yip yip yip yip yip Mum mum mum mum mum mum Get a job Sha na na na, sha na na na na https://www.songfacts.com/detail.php?id=2142 Edited March 28, 2007 by mel brat
