Lyrics

[Verse 1]
A bad little kid moved into my neighborhood
He won't do nothing right just sitting down and looks so good
He don't wanna go to school and learn to read and write
Just sits around the house and plays the rock and roll music all night
[Verse 2]
Well, he put some tacks on teacher's chair
Puts chewing gum in little girl's hair
Now, junior, behave yourself
[Verse 3]
Buys every rock and roll book on the magazine stand
Every dime that he get, ooh, is lost to the jukebox man
Well, he worries his teacher till at night she's ready to poop
From rocking and a-rolling, spinning in a hula hoop
Well, this rock and roll has got to stop
Junior's head is hard as rock
Now, junior, behave yourself, ow!
[Verse 4]
Ow!
Ow!
[Verse 5]
Gonna tell your mama, you better do what she said
Get to the barber shop and get that hair cut off your head
Threw the canary and you fed it to the neighbor's cat
You gave the cocker spaniel a bath in mother's laundromat
[Verse 6]
Well, your mama's head has got to stop
Junior's head is hard as rock
Now, junior, behave yourself, woo!
