Boys Songtext
von Henry Jamison

Thought I was drowning in that bed
Couldn′t get the moon out of my head
So I woke before the break of day
Walked along the coast of Galway

Sitting at the boardwalk bar drinking a whisky
Feeling all the rage of a modern man
We used to feel our rage just like the sea
Now we get it on an installment plan

All my love
To you and yours
And all the baby boys they're dressing them in blue
Teaching them that life′s so hard


Hmm, I think I'd swim a long way from where I was
Drunk off my ass in some suburban town
I betrayed my friend in 19 Darwinian
I'll never live that down
But I fell into a good girl′s good graces
And I poured my heart right into hers
She′s more an optimist and muddy laces
Than a Venus and furs

All my love
To you and yours
And all the college boys they're dressing up in suits
Thinking life′s a bore

Spring is coming
Let me lazy chairs
Renew me from falling
Hmm hmm hmm

All my love
To you and yours
And all the baby boys they're dressing them in blue
Teaching them that life′s so hard

All my love
To you and yours
And all the college boys they're dressing up in suits
Thinking life′s a bore
