You go down the pub You wear make up And old dads trousers Why don’t you tidy up You talk like a docker but you act like a queer You drink champagne then complain it’s too dear You try so hard not to follow any trends Then you cry in your beer and say you’ve got no friends But is it any wonder that you’ve got no friends But it’s not the make up Or the way you dress It’s not your appearance, that they all detest It’s not your manners, that you gotta improve Ooooo--it’s your attitude.
Chorus Attitude, oo oo oo Your attitude Attitude, oo oo oo Your attitude
Take off your head phones Hear what’s going on You can’t live in a time zone You’ve gotta move on But before you get there There’s one thing you’ve gotta do Oh change your attitude It’s your attitude It’s your attitude
Chorus Attitude, oo oo oo Your attitude Attitude, oo oo oo Your attitude
The ’80s are here, I know cuz I’m staring right at them But you’re still waiting for 1960 to happen
You might have the illness, but you’ve got the cure You’ve got the answer, you will endure You’re the only person that’s gonna pull you through Ooh, with your attitude
Chorus Attitude, oo oo oo Your attitude Attitude, oo oo oo Your attitude
You gotta learn to be positive, it’s your only chance You mustn’t be so defensive, you gotta join in the dance But it isn’t your dancing that you’ve gotta improve Ooh, it’s your attitude.
Chorus Attitude, oo oo oo Your attitude Attitude, oo oo oo Your attitude
It’s all the music It’s all in your brain You’ve used all the old licks Now it’s all gotta change. Change your attitude It’s your attitude Attitude
