Cowboy Junkies - Bad boy lyrics

(Larry Williams)

A bad little boy moved into the neighborhood

He won't do nothin' right just a-sittin' got to look so good

He don't wanna go to school and learn to read and write

Just sits around the house and plays that rock n' roll music all night

Well, he put thumbtacks on teacher's chair

put chewing gum in li'l girl's hair

Now Junior, behave yourself!

Buys every rock n' roll book on the magazine stand

Every dime that he gets, oh is off to the juke box man

Well, he worries his teacher till she's a-ready to poop

from rockin' and a rollin' spinnin' in a Hula-Hoop

Well, his rock n' roll has gotta stop

Junior's head is hard as rock

Now Junior, behave yourself!

Gonna tell your mama you'd better do what she said

Get to the barber shop and get that hair cut off your head

You shoot the canary and you fed it to the neighboor's cat

You gave the cocker spaniel a bath in mother's laundromat

Well, your mama said it's gotta stop

Junior's head is hard as rock

Now Junior, behave yourself!
