Lately I been sittin here just thinkin' The life I lead has gotta be a drag Punchin' all these buttons on computers Windows 95 just ain't my bag Gettin' up so early in the mornin' One more pop tart's gonna make me gag Getting home so late in the evenin' Just to watch T.V. with the old nag Friday comes and then it's time for freedom Freedom just to mow and rake and weed 'em I wish I had a son to cut the lawn So I could watch the football game and yawn Then I'd fire up the barbeque And show 'em what suburban man can do But hopefully some day I will reform And a way gone cat will be reborn
CHORUS: Oh, I wanna be a rockabilly rebel I wanna dance and drag and drop away the night I'm gonna tell those fools that rockabilly rules And if they don't like it then we'll have to fight I'm gonna quit my job and join the rockabilly mob Now that I have finally seen the light Or maybe I'll find work as a rockin' soda jerk Or maybe I'll go cruisin' on my bike
SOLO
I'm gonna quit my job and join the rockabilly mob And make a rockin' changeup in my life I'm gonna get a guitar and a hot rod car and maybe even get a brand new wife I'll fill my hair with grease so I can lose the police When they try and take my switchblade knife I'm breakin' free and I'm bound to be The coolest cat around since Barney Fife
