Not Like the Other Boys
Danny was a little different from the rest
Not like the other boys
Not like the other boys
Always sitting on his own out in the schoolyard
Away from the other boys
Away from the other boys
He just sat there dreaming
Waiting for the bell
Hoping to avoid
All of the other boys
They said, don't move now
And we might let you go
Not one sound and no one will ever know
Life could be so easy
If you'd just start acting more like the other boys
More like the other boys
He said, I won't
So let me bleed
You can't decide
My life for me
And my love
Doesn't define
'Cause you have your way
And I have mine
His father never bothered to try and understand it
He said, you're not my son
Must be the devil's one
Didn't I try to raise you like a man?
Just like the other boys
Just like the other boys
Why don't you find yourself a nice girl?
Get hitched and settle down
If you keep on going that way
They're gonna run you out of town
He said, I won't
So let me bleed
You can't decide
My life for me
And my love
Doesn't define
'Cause you have your way
And I have mine
Don't move now
And we might let you go
Not one sound and no one will ever know
Life could be so easy
If you'd just start acting more like the other boys
More like the other boys
He said, I won't
So let me bleed
You can't decide
My life for me
And my love
Doesn't define
'Cause you have your way
And I have mine
Not like the other boys
Not like the other boys
Not like the other boys
Not like the other boys
Not like the other boys
Not like the other boys
Not like the other boys
Not like...
Not like the other boys
Not like the other boys
Always sitting on his own out in the schoolyard
Away from the other boys
Away from the other boys
He just sat there dreaming
Waiting for the bell
Hoping to avoid
All of the other boys
They said, don't move now
And we might let you go
Not one sound and no one will ever know
Life could be so easy
If you'd just start acting more like the other boys
More like the other boys
He said, I won't
So let me bleed
You can't decide
My life for me
And my love
Doesn't define
'Cause you have your way
And I have mine
His father never bothered to try and understand it
He said, you're not my son
Must be the devil's one
Didn't I try to raise you like a man?
Just like the other boys
Just like the other boys
Why don't you find yourself a nice girl?
Get hitched and settle down
If you keep on going that way
They're gonna run you out of town
He said, I won't
So let me bleed
You can't decide
My life for me
And my love
Doesn't define
'Cause you have your way
And I have mine
Don't move now
And we might let you go
Not one sound and no one will ever know
Life could be so easy
If you'd just start acting more like the other boys
More like the other boys
He said, I won't
So let me bleed
You can't decide
My life for me
And my love
Doesn't define
'Cause you have your way
And I have mine
Not like the other boys
Not like the other boys
Not like the other boys
Not like the other boys
Not like the other boys
Not like the other boys
Not like the other boys
Not like...
