| [00:11.875] |
I won't forget when Peter Pan came to my house took my hand |
| [00:16.550] |
I said I was a boy I'm glad he didn't check |
| [00:22.494] |
I learned to fly I learned to fight |
| [00:24.851] |
I lived a whole life in one night |
| [00:27.260] |
We saved each other's lives out on the pirate's deck |
| [00:33.455] |
And I remember that night |
| [00:35.355] |
When I'm leaving a late night with some friends |
| [00:38.260] |
And I hear somebody tell me it's not safe |
| [00:41.863] |
someone should help me |
| [00:44.268] |
I need to find a nice man to walk me home |
| [00:48.151] |
When I was a boy I scared the pants off of my mom |
| [00:52.808] |
Climbed what I could climb upon |
| [00:58.818] |
And I don't know how I survived |
| [01:01.230] |
I guess I knew the tricks that all boys knew |
| [01:08.882] |
And you can walk me home but I was a boy too |
| [01:30.384] |
I was a kid that you would like just a small boy on her bike |
| [01:35.288] |
Riding topless yeah I never cared who saw |
| [01:44.751] |
I said No way it's the last time I'm not breaking any law |
| [01:52.126] |
And now I'm in a clothing store and the sign says less is more |
| [01:56.996] |
More that's tight means more to see |
| [01:59.403] |
more for them not more for me |
| [02:03.064] |
That can't help me climb a tree in ten seconds flat |
| [02:06.971] |
When I was a boy see that picture That was me |
| [02:11.641] |
Grass-stained shirt and dusty knees |
| [02:17.631] |
And I know things have gotta change |
| [02:20.091] |
They got pills to sell they've got implants to put in |
| [02:23.522] |
they've got implants to remove |
| [02:27.533] |
But I am not forgetting |
| [02:36.254] |
That I was a boy too |
| [02:49.066] |
And like the woods where I would creep it's a secret I can keep |
| [02:53.898] |
Except when I'm tired except when I'm being caught off guard |
| [02:59.814] |
I've had a lonesome awful day the conversation finds its way |
| [03:04.938] |
To catching fire-flies out in the backyard |
| [03:10.861] |
And I tell the man I'm with about the other life I lived |
| [03:16.029] |
And I say now you're top gun I have lost and you have won |
| [03:21.799] |
And he says Oh no no can't you see |
| [03:25.757] |
When I was a girl my mom and I we always talked |
| [03:30.176] |
And I picked flowers everywhere that I walked |
| [03:36.746] |
And I could always cry now even when I'm alone I seldom do |
| [03:46.341] |
And I have lost some kindness |
| [03:54.702] |
But I was a girl too |
| [03:59.579] |
And you were just like me and I was just like you |
