    Lyrics
    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
    You got soul…
    You got soul…
    I said get, get, get on down
    I said get-get-get on down
    I said get, get, get on down
    I 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, I don't need you (I don't need you)
    So you don't approve, well who asked you to? - Hey
    Hey jerk, you work (hey jerk, you work)
    This boy's got better things to do - hell…
    I ain't never gonna work, get down in the dirt
    I choose to cruise
    Gonna live my life, sharp as a knife
    I've found my groove, and I just can't lose
    A.1. style, from head to toe
    Cool cat flash, gonna let you know
    I'm a soul boy, I'm a dole boy
    Take pleasure in leisure, I believe in joy
    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
    Party nights, and neon lights
    We hit the floors, we hit the heights
    Dancing shoes, and pretty girls
    Boys in leather, kiss girls in pearls
    Hot-damn, everybody let's play
    So they promised you a good job - no way (no way)
    One, two, three, rap
    C'mon everybody, don't need this crap (don't need this crap)
    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
    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
    Now reach up high, and touch your soul
    The boys from Wham, will help you reach that goal
    It's gonna break your mama's heart (so sad)
    It's gonna break your daddy's heart (too bad)
    But you'll throw the dice, and take my advice
    Because 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, enjoy what you do?
    If not, just stop - don't stay there and rot
    [x3]
    Do you want to work? (no)
    Are you gonna have fun? (yeah)
    Do you wanna be a jerk? (no)
    Are you gonna stay young? (yeah)
    Everybody say Wham (Wham)
    Say bam (bam)
    Everybody say Wham (Wham)
    Say Wham-bam (Wham-bam)
    Can you dig this thing? (can you dig this thing)
    Are you gonna get down (down - down)
    Say one, two, three, rap
    C'mon everybody, don't need this crap (don't need this crap)
    Enjoy what you do… (enjoy what you do) [x4]
    [x2]
    Everybody say Wham (Wham)
    Say bam (bam)
    Everybody say Wham (Wham)
    Say Wham-bam (Wham-bam)
    Enjoy what you do… [x4]
    [x2]
    Enjoy what you do… (enjoy what you do)
    Enjoy what you do… (enjoy what you do)
    Enjoy what you do… (enjoy what you do)
    Enjoy what you do… (enjoy what you do)

      George had one of the best glow up in pop music history. he mightnt have liked all of wham songs but i do not believe for one minute that he hated wham because that means he hated andy as well and i dont think that is true. he might have grew out of the teenage boy that we see in this music video and went on to become one of the biggest pop stars of all time. so sad that he was taken too soon.

      DeeMor501 I don't blame you one tiny bit. I think Andrew is as beautiful and sexy as George was. Even if George was gay, he still presented a macho, masculine image on stage and screen which any woman or girl could fall in love with, just like Rock Hudson and James Dean. That's what I will remember them for, along with their acting talent and George's excellent singing.

    Make the claims

    Switching off for work
    Well listen Mr. Average
    You're a jerk
    Not me
    You can't hold me down

    Is where you're at
    Make the most of everyday
    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
    Now reach up high and touch your soul
    The boys from Wham! will help you reach that goal
    It's gonna break your mama's heart (so sad)
    It's 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!)

      Well, that explains everything. Why, the idea is so revolutionary that every single band should have at least one fit member who doesn't do anything, apart from posing in the background and flexing their muscles. This could be the shot in the arm the industry needs. MAKE IT SO!!

      R Wright I'm glad I explained it so well.
      I just wikied him apparently he was a co song writer and still writes music under pseudonym he's worth 25 million and he shuns the limelight. But he was very good looking..

    Wham! (George Michael) is one of the great British singers who entertained and impressed people around the world with songs!
    His singing ability, voice volume, expressive ability and expression that can be freely changed depending on the song.
    Overall, George Michael is no exaggeration to say "the world's best vocalist."
    I also think so of Japanese.

      +hissyfit2508 In 1983 a Walkman was the epitome of hip.

    Of all of the tragic deaths in the music world in 2016, George Michael hurts me the most.
