# I said get, get, get on down

# Said get, get, get on down

# I said get, get, get on down

# Said get, get, get on down

# Hey, everybody, take a look at me

# I've got street credibility

# I may not have a job but I have a good time

# With the boys that I meet down on the line

# I said D-H-S-S

# Now the rhythm that they're giving is the very best

# Hey!

# I said B1, B2

# Make a claim, sign your name's all you have to do

# Well, folk can be a drag if work ain't your bag

# And when you let them know

# You're more dead than alive in a nine to five

# And they say you've got to go

# And get yourself a job and get out of this house

# Get yourself a job Are you a man or a mouse?

# A finger in each ear You pretend not to hear

# Gotta get some space, get out of this place... #

THEY SING: # Wham...bam! I am...a man

# Job or no job, you can't tell me that I'm not

# Do...you enjoy what you do?

# If not, just stop!

# Don't stay there and rot! #

HE RAPS: # In the streets, in the cars On the Underground

# If you listen real hard you can hear the sound

# Of a million people switching off for work

# Well, listen, Mr Average, you're a jerk!

# Not me - you can't hold me down

# Not me - I'm gonna fool around

# I'm gonna have some fun, look after number one

# You can dig your grave I'm staying young! #

THEY SING: # Wham...bam! I am...a man

# Job or no job, you can't tell me that I'm not

# Do...you enjoy what you do?

# If not, just stop!

# Don't stay there and rot! #

RAPS: # If you're a pub man or a club man

# Maybe a jet-black guy with a hip hi-fi

# A white cool cat with a trilby hat

# Maybe leather and studs is where you're at

# Make the most of every day

# Don't let hard times stand in your way

# Give a wham, give a bam but don't give a damn

# Cos the benefit gang are gonna pay... #

HE SINGS: # Now, reach up high and touch your soul

# The boys from Wham!'ll help you reach that goal

-# It's gonna break your mama's heart

-So sad!

-# Gonna break your daddy's heart

-Too bad!

# Just throw the dice and take my advice

# Cos I know that you're smart

-# Can you dig this thing?

-Yeah!

-# Are you gonna get down?

-Yeah!

-# Say Wham!

-Wham!

-# Say bam!

-Bam!

# Wham...bam! I am...a man

# Job or no job, you can't tell me that I'm not

# Do...you... #

APPLAUSE

George and Andrew and friends - that's Wham!

Listen out for the 12-inch of that song. It's brilliant!

And look out for the new LP from Tears For Fears.

Here's their current hit, number four. It's called Change. TFF!

# You walked into the room

# I just had to laugh

# The face you wore was cool

# You were a photograph

# When it's all too late

# It's all too late

# I did not have the time

# I did not have the nerve

# To ask you how you feel

# Is this what you deserve?

# When it's all too late

# It's all too late

# Change

# You can change

# Change

# You can change

# And something on your mind

# Became a point of view

# I lost your honesty

# You lost the life in you

# When it's all too late

# It's all too late

# We walk and talk in time

# I walk and talk in two

# Where does the end of me

# Become the start of you?

# When it's all too late

# It's all too late

# Change

# You can change

# Change

# You can change. #

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

On now to a band who are making their debut on Top Of The Pops tonight.

They've come a long way for it - all the way from Australia,

where they're probably about the number-one band.

They've got a great new single out at the moment called Hey, Little Girl. Here's Icehouse.

# Hey, hey

# When everything goes wrong

# Sometimes it makes no sense

# Hey, hey

# There once was a time

# I should have known better then

# Hey-hey

# Although you may try

# It won't come your way again

# Hey, little girl

# Where will you hide?

# Who can you run to now?

# Hey, little girl

# Where will you go?

# Who can you turn to now?

# Hey, hey

# So why should I care

# If somebody let you down?

# Hey, hey

# And it's no surprise

# Little girls hurt sometimes

# Hey, little girl

# Where will you hide?

# Who can you run to now?

# Hey, little girl, yeah

# Where will you go?

# Who can you turn to now?

# Who can you turn to now?

# Hey, hey

# When everything goes wrong

# Sometimes it makes no sense

# Hey, hey

# Hey, little girl

# Should have known better

# Better

# Hey, hey

# Hey, little girl

# Where will you hide?

# Who can you run to now?

# Hey, little girl

# Where will you hide? #

And now to the masters of video. This is Madness.

# Trying hard

# I thought I'd done my best

# All my life

# I can't get no rest

# Some who've closed the door before

# Say I can't carry on no more

# I hear them saying

# Tomorrow's just another day

# I hear them saying

# And it gets better every day

# I hear them saying

# Tomorrow's just another day

# Tomorrow's just another day

# Listened long

# Tried to take it in

# All these facts

# Leave me in the swim

# It's down and down

# There is no up

# I think that I've run out of luck

# I hear them saying

# Tomorrow's just another day

# I hear them saying

# And it gets better every day

# I hear them saying

# Tomorrow's just another day

# Tomorrow's just another

# Day

# Walking now

# Over covered ground

# There's a chance

# If I move around

# I need a moment to reflect

# On the friendships I have wrecked

# Why is it I

# Don't I always try?

# I hear them saying

# Tomorrow's just another day

# I hear them saying

# And it gets better every day

# I hear them saying

# Tomorrow's just another day

# I hear them saying

# And it gets better every day

# I heard them saying

# Tomorrow's just another day

# I hear them saying

# Tomorrow's just another day

# Tomorrow's just another

# I hear them saying

# Tomorrow's just another day

# Consequences, altered cases

# Broken noses, altered faces

# My ego altered

# Altered egos

# Wherever I go

# So does me go

# Walk through the fields where the flowers are growing

# Carve out your names on the first tree you see

# There are 22 catches when you strike your matches

# And get down on your knees

# In the tunnel of love

# The tunnel of love

# You fall in feet first

# In the tunnel of love

# You think of yourselves as really good friends

# But you know how it always ends

# In the tunnel of love

# So you get engaged

# And have a party

# Only 17 when the wedding bells chime

# Got a room with a view and a kid on the way

# Hope you make it to the church on time

# Cos the wedding list is getting longer

# The bottom drawer is getting fuller

# And you're not getting any younger

# Can things get any better?

# In the tunnel of love

# The tunnel of love

# You fall in feet first

# In the tunnel of love

# And think of yourselves as really good friends

# But you know how it always ends

# In the tunnel of love

# The tunnel of love

# So consequences

# Altered cases

# You tried honeymoons in far-off places

# But the trial separation worked

# And ended up

# In a divorce case

# You gave up your friends for a new way of life

# And both ended up as ex-husband and wife

# There were 22 catches

# When you struck your matches

# And threw away your life

# In the tunnel of love

# The tunnel of love

# You fell in feet first

# In the tunnel of love

# And thought of yourselves as really good friends

# But you know how it had to end

# In the tunnel of love

# In the tunnel of love

# The tunnel of love

# In the tunnel of love

# The tunnel of love

# The tunnel of love

# In the tunnel of love. #
