Lyrics Joe Jackson – Thugz ‘r’ Us

Thugz R Us, Thugz R Us
Wearing hoods and baggy trousers on the bus
Thugz R Us, Thugz R Us
We don’t want no trouble

Out in the suburbs
Life is gettin’ tough
Me and my posse
Necks are gettin’ rough
Down in the Boys’ School
Life is gettin’ hard
Know what I’m sayin’
Fightin’ in the yard

We got wide-arsed hippie mums
We look smart but we wanna be so dumb

Thugz R Us, Thugz R Us
Wearing hoods and baggy trousers on the bus
Thugz R Us, Thugz R Us
We don’t want no trouble
Unless you make a fuss

I got some mash-ups
With Snoop and Dr Dre
I play ’em louder
When my dad’s away
We got a Volvo
And plastic chandeliers
Know what I’m sayin’
It’s boring me to tears

We got tight-arsed drippy dads
We look good but we wanna be bad

Thugz R Us, Thugz R Us
Wearing hoods and baggy trousers on the bus
Thugz R Us, Thugz R Us
We don’t want no trouble
Unless you make a fuss

We got beer but we want some crack
We look white but we wanna be black

Thugz R Us
