You Didn't Have to

Thank you boy for the beautiful flower

Thank you boy for the stars in your eyes

Thank you boy for giving me your finest hours

What a surprise?

You didn't have to

Thank you boy for the time that we wasted

Thank you boy for the things that you said

Thank you boy for every strange thought that

I tastedYou're off your head

You didn't have to

And hearing my story from your occupied territory

Thank you boy for the sound of your voices

Like a hammer or a drill

Thank you boy for giving me no choices

You know I will

You didn't have to
