Lyrics
Unruly boys Who will not grow up Must be taken in hand Unruly girls Who will not settle down They must be taken in hand
A crack on the head Is what you get for not asking And a crack on the head Is what you get for asking
Unruly boys Who will not grow up Must be taken in hand Unruly girls Who will not settle down They must be taken in hand
A crack on the head Is what you get for not asking And a crack on the head Is what you get for asking
No, a crack on the head Is what you get for not asking And a crack on the head Is what you get for asking
A crack on the head Is just what you get Why, because of who you are And a crack on the head Is just what you get Why, because of what you are A crack on the head Because of The things you said That you said The things you did
Unruly boys Who will not grow Must be taken in hand Unruly girls Who will not grow They must be taken in hand
Ah, oh, no, oh, no Ah, oh, no, oh, no No, no, no, no Ah, oh, no, oh, no Ah, oh, no, oh, no No, no, no
