Bahbahbah-bahbahbahbah
Bahbahbah-bahbahbahbah...
(Continues in background throughout most of song)
The guy who slagged the football team
Those yobs were not for him
He turns into a real estate agent
Who believes in discipline
The guy who's first to use cocaine
The wild boy breaking free
He'll end up in a court of law
As a prosecuting QC
Remember the school captain?
Success was a matter of time
I can hear him now as she screams
"Greg, you missed the stop sign!"
Forget Snoop Doggy Dogg
Forget old Ice T
The true word out on the streets
Is produced by the TAC
What's the use of striving?
As life's road in front unravels
We get to do the driving
Don't choose the direction we travel
Do your homework, or wag for weeks
Grafitti the Dandenong line
It don't matter much when you hear that scream
"Greg, you missed the stop sign!"
Greg! The stop sign!
Greg! The stop sign!
Greg! The stop sign!
Greg! The stop sign!
Sometime in the next ten thousand years
A comet's gonna wipe out all trace of Man
I'm banking on it coming before
My end of year exams
The rich kid becomes a junkie
The poor kid an advertiser
What a tragic waste of potential!
Bein' a junkie's not so good either
Your folks worked hard for what you've got
You're the fruit of their vine
But who cares what you sow when what you reap is:
"Greg, you missed the stop sign!"
Bought a car just the other day
Man, could that baby run!
But you know what they always say
There's always a better one
Got a tumor in my brain
It's creeping to my lungs
And I've searched around in vain
Can't find me a better one.
Hardwired into everyone's head
Is the person they're gonna be
Growin' up's not a matter of choice
It's a matter of wait & see
So kids, yeah, you can do it
You can be your best!
Girls can do anything
You can pass the test!
I'm OK, you're OK
We're OK, we're fine!
I thought I heard a semi-trailer
"Greg, you missed the stop sign!"
Greg! The stop sign!
Greg! The stop sign!
Greg! The stop sign!
Greg! The stop sign!
Greg! The stop sign!
Greg! The stop sign!
Greg! The stop sign!
Greg! The stop siiiiiiggggggn!
