"Boys"


I'm as lonely as boys
I'm as lonely as boys
I'm as lonely as monkeys taught to destroy
Anything they learn to enjoy

So pardon me angel
So pardon me angel
Pardon me my love for you is a stranger
That you met some place but ignored

So break and go home
Break and go home
Why don't you leave me, leave me alone?

I'm as lonely as boys
Who are lonely for girls
Who are lonely as monkeys taught to enjoy
Everything they learn to destroy

So pardon me angel
So pardon me angel
Pardon me my love for you is in danger
In danger of becoming a bore

So break and go home
Break and go home
Why don't you leave me, leave me alone?

And break and go home
Break and go home

And break and go home
Break and go home
And go home
I’m the loneliest boy
With the loneliest plan
But I’m ready and I want to understand
That ain’t a woman, that’s a girl

So pardon me angel
So pardon my anger
Pardon me my faith in girls is in danger
She leaves you addicted, wantin' more

So break and go home
Break and go home
Why don't you leave me, leave me alone?

And break and go home
Break and go home
