I've had nights I will never forget I've had nights I will always regret But I can take it on the chin And say 'boys will be boys'
There's been girls that have stolen our hearts But their arms simply couldn't be prised apart They'll never let us in, they say 'boys will be boys'
Well it's under my skin so I can never win Oh thanks a lot We cheat and we lie and we fight We don't cry, well we try
I've felt driven and I've felt obliged I've had feelings like a thorn in my side I hope you never let us down now Boys will be boys
Blinded by sorrow I could hardly restrain Everywhere there's guilt laboured with pain Chin up, chin up now Boys will be boys
Ah you said, you better move out the way I come to keep the people them rocking and sway I'm well serious, I never ever play Boys will be boys, and there's nothing you can say (way) Spread the word across the land Must make people understand Wish I had a magic wand To make people united as one This goes out to all the girls On the mic might send you round the bend Boys will be boys, listen, right to the end!
Well it's under my skin so I can never win Oh thanks a lot We cheat and we lie and we fight We don't cry, well we try
