The Jam

The Jam were an English punk rock/New Wave/mod revival band active during the late 1970s and early 1980s. They were formed in Woking, Surrey. While they shared the "angry young men" outlook and fast tempos of their punk rock contemporaries, The Jam wore smartly tailored suits rather than ripped clothes, and they incorporated a number of mainstream 1960s rock and R&B influences rather than rejecting them, placing The Jam at the forefront of the mod revival movement. more »

See me walking around 
I'm the boy about town that you heard of
See me walking the streets 
I'm on top of the world that you heard

Oh, like paper caught in wind
I glide up street, I glide down street
Oh, and it won't let you go
Till you finally come to rest or someone picks you up
Up street, down street, and puts you in the bin

See me walking around 
I'm the boy about town that you heard of
See me walking the streets 
I'm on top of the world that you heard

Oh, I'm sitting, watching rainbows
And watching the people go crazy
Oh, please leave me aside
I want to be a...
I want to be
I want to live in
Up street, down street, like paper caught in wind
Up street, down street; it won't let you go

Na na na nah, na na na nah
Na na na na na na nah

Na na na nah, na na na nah
There's more than you can hope for in this world
