Just A Boy

Don't it make you feel good

when the world spins another way

and it's all in your head

And every little thing thing she said

is a call to arms?

A vote for the underclass—yeah, the underdog

Still holding fast

And I don't talk much, no

I don't think much, no

I'm just a boy who hangs around

I keep my eyes clean, yeah

I keep my nose clean, yeah

Just a boy who hangs around

I hear you calling

Don't you know I'm falling?

I keep my back to the world

And Rita takes time to say it's all right

She always had some time to steal

A summer of hate,

no holy crusade, and the wars on TV

are lost on me—yeah, they're lost on you

The battles we fight are all our own,

they're shabby and light and stupid and sad

They're all we have

Yeah, they're all we have

And I don't talk much, no

I don't think much, no

I'm just a boy who hangs around

I keep my eyes clean, yeah

I keep my nose clean, yeah

I'm just a boy who hangs around
