Boys Can Never Tell
If daddy says the mountain's come off you must believe him true.
I will build a science and create a world for you.
I'll protect you from yourself and the tendencies you've shown,
cause the world will see a man like you as weak and under grown.
And I'm gonna love you son, even if you love no one.
This thing you will learn too well.
Boys can never tell.
Boys can never tell.
You should bite your tongue and will your words to fail.
Boys can never tell.
You're a lady without warning and I've been loyal mean.
This is not the body you were born in and I can prove it with what I have seen.
So I will raise you tough, build you strong and crown you king.
You will put me in the ground and choose yourself a queen.
And I'm gonna love you son, even if you love no one.
This thing you will learn too well.
Boys can never tell.
Boys can never tell.
You should bite your tongue and will your words to fail.
Boys can never tell.
I don't expect you to understand how much it took to care.
I built you out of half my blood and filled your lungs with air.
I only had you to make your mother stay,
but when you came she left all the same.
So I have learned what love is and what it cannot be.
But I will not speak of it, until you will speak of me.
And I'm gonna love you son, even if you love no one.
This thing you will learn too well.
Boys can never tell.
Boys can never tell.
You should bite your tongue and will your words to fail.
Boys can never tell.
I will build a science and create a world for you.
I'll protect you from yourself and the tendencies you've shown,
cause the world will see a man like you as weak and under grown.
And I'm gonna love you son, even if you love no one.
This thing you will learn too well.
Boys can never tell.
Boys can never tell.
You should bite your tongue and will your words to fail.
Boys can never tell.
You're a lady without warning and I've been loyal mean.
This is not the body you were born in and I can prove it with what I have seen.
So I will raise you tough, build you strong and crown you king.
You will put me in the ground and choose yourself a queen.
And I'm gonna love you son, even if you love no one.
This thing you will learn too well.
Boys can never tell.
Boys can never tell.
You should bite your tongue and will your words to fail.
Boys can never tell.
I don't expect you to understand how much it took to care.
I built you out of half my blood and filled your lungs with air.
I only had you to make your mother stay,
but when you came she left all the same.
So I have learned what love is and what it cannot be.
But I will not speak of it, until you will speak of me.
And I'm gonna love you son, even if you love no one.
This thing you will learn too well.
Boys can never tell.
Boys can never tell.
You should bite your tongue and will your words to fail.
Boys can never tell.
