(Not All) the Boys Will Be Boys
Who's the one to keep you safe?
From what you don't know you don't know?
I know you know; you're the knowing girl
I know you know that this glowing world
Is a shine put on synthetic pearls
Them good old boys, the princes, the kings
They pass the scepters, kiss the rings
They wanna put one on your calloused finger
But your fist is raised, your fist is raised
You sing, no, no, not if the boys will be boys
No, no, not if the boys
Mama's truth, you should never hear
You knew the pain before you could feel it
Regret's a shield, but regret will deceive you
And you could lose her memories
Keep singing, No, no, not if the boys will be boys
No, no, not if the boys
No, no, not if the boys will be boys
No, no, not if the boys
You can love who you wanna love
And you can love no one at all
But, my darlin', love, love, it's all we've got
And trust is the life worth living
From what you don't know you don't know?
I know you know; you're the knowing girl
I know you know that this glowing world
Is a shine put on synthetic pearls
Them good old boys, the princes, the kings
They pass the scepters, kiss the rings
They wanna put one on your calloused finger
But your fist is raised, your fist is raised
You sing, no, no, not if the boys will be boys
No, no, not if the boys
Mama's truth, you should never hear
You knew the pain before you could feel it
Regret's a shield, but regret will deceive you
And you could lose her memories
Keep singing, No, no, not if the boys will be boys
No, no, not if the boys
No, no, not if the boys will be boys
No, no, not if the boys
You can love who you wanna love
And you can love no one at all
But, my darlin', love, love, it's all we've got
And trust is the life worth living
