Williams Dar The Honesty Room When I Was A Boy I won't forget when Peter Pan came to my house, took my hand I said I was a boy, I'm glad he didn't check. I learned to fly, I learned to fight, I lived a whole life in one night We saved each other's lives out on the pirate's deck. And I remember that night when I'm leaving a late night with some friends And I hear somebody tell me it's not safe, someone should help me I need to find a nice man to walk me home. When I was a boy, I scared the pants off of my mom, Climbed what I could climbup on And I don't know how I survived, I guess I knew the tricks that all the boys knew And you could walk me home, but I was a boy, too. I was a kid that you would like, just a small boy on her bike Riding topless, yeah I never cared who saw. My neighbor came outside to say, "Get your shirt," I said "No way It's the last time, I'm not breaking any law." And now I'm in a clothing store, and the signs say Less is More More that's tight means more to see, more for them, not more for me That can't help me climb a tree in ten seconds flat When I was a boy, see that picture? That was me Grass stained shirt and dusty knees. And I know things have gotta change, They got pills to sell, they've got implants to put in, they've got implants to remove But I am not forgetting That I was a boy too. And like the woods where I would creep, it's a secret I can keep Except when I'm tired, except when I'm being caught off guard. I've had a lonesome awful day, the conversation finds it's way To catchng fireflies out in the backyard And I tell the man I'm with about the other life I lived And I say now you're top gun, I have lost and you have won And he says "Oh no, oh, no, can't you see When I was a girl, my mom and I, we always talked And I picked flowers everywhere that I walked And I could always cry, now even when I'm alone I seldom do And I have lost some kindness, But I was a girl too. And you were just like me, and I was just like you." |
