Be A Boy (Live)

When you’re young you hope to be

Menacing in vanity

6 feet tall, maybe more

Bigger now than before

They said it was leaving me

The magic was leaving me

I don’t think so

I don’t think so

They said it was leaving

They said it went on

Now I could make this last forever

And be a boy, and be a boy

When you’re young you hope to see

And carve your name into the street

Bout your words of satellites

That keep the wasted up tonight

They said it was leaving me

The magic was leaving me

I don’t think so

I don’t think so

They said it was leaving

They said it went on

Now I could make this last forever

And be a boy, and be a boy

There’s safety in the jungle

If you treat it like a toy

Make sure you talk to strangers

And be a boy, and be a boy

Be a boy

They said it was leaving me

The magic was leaving me

I don’t think so

I don’t think so

All of the boys are gonna be someone

The time you caught but it was gone

The time you caught but it was gone

It takes a big man to be someone

All of the boys are gonna be someone

The time you caught but it was gone

The time you caught but it was gone

It takes a big man to be someone

I’m half your age and lived twice your life

And hide on streets, you walk tonight

The time you caught but it’s not mine

It takes a big man to be someone

I’m half your age and lived twice your life

And I don’t sleep alone tonight

The time you caught but it’s not mine

It takes a big man to be someone
