D
Why do all the rude boys on the bus
G
Find it fun to make a fuss of anyone
A little bit dissimilar
[Verse]
D
Why can't they just leave us all alone
G
And allow each to their own devices
D
Even if they're unfamiliar to you
[Chorus]
A
And they say why'd you wanna dress like that son
D A
I say I just wanna have some fun if that's alright with you
D
I'd really rather not have to talk to you
[Chorus]

And they say why'd you wanna dress like that son

You sit there with your music belling out
G
So you have to scream and shout so loud
Why you so busy hating
[Verse]

A little old lady shrinks in front of you

Whilst you're busy screaming black and blue
D
It's really intimidating for her

D
Y'always claim we're disrespecting you
G
As if you're generous with your R-E-S-P-ECT for us
It's something you neglect
[Verse]
D
Why can't all the good folk make a stand
G
And bring an end to all their happy slaps
D
They can be the trees and we will be the lumberjacks
