Lyrics for Junk Man
When I'm walking down the street, It's always you I seem to meet, Long hair down and sneakers on your feet. And write your letters to the Evening News I clench my fist and sing this tune: I said Hey student, hey student, hey student, You're gonna get it through the head, I said Hey student, hey student, hey student, You're gonna get it through the head, I said... When walking to work, It's always you I seem to meet Henna in your hair, standing in the heat As you serve us in a book kid I clench my hand before I flip my lid. I said Hey student, hey student, hey student, You're gonna get it through the head, I said Hey student, hey student, hey student, You're gonna get it through the head, I said... When walking down the street, It's always you I seem to meet, Long hair down and sneakers on your feet. As you listen to Pearl Jam in your room. I said Hey student, hey student, hey student, You're gonna get it through the head, I said Hey student, hey student, hey student, You're gonna get it through the head, I said... I said I woka-to-ma, woka-to-ma Woka-to-ma, wah wah wah x2 When walking down the street, It's always you I seem to meet, Long hair down and sneakers on your feet. As you stare in your room at Shaun Ryder's face Down long long long long days I said Hey student, hey student, hey student, You're gonna get it through the head, I said Hey student, hey student, hey student, You're gonna get it through the head, I said... I said I woka-to-ma, woka-to-ma Woka-to-ma, wah wah wah x2 The dead brains of class A-D Born to live in Leigh-on-Sea Twin swastikas, court, swimming pool I'm thinking like this when I sing this tune: I said Hey student, hey student, hey student, You're gonna get it through the head, I said Hey student, hey student, hey student, You're gonna get it through the head, I said... I said I woka-to-ma, woka-to-ma Woka-to-ma, wah wah wah x2 I said Hey student, hey student, hey student, You're gonna get it through the head, I said Hey student, hey student, hey student, You're gonna get it through the head, I said... I said I woka-to-ma, woka-to-ma Woka-to-ma, wah wah wah x2 END
