Not Like The Other Boys

Danny was a little different from the rest

Not like the other boys

Not like the other boys

Always sitting on his own out in the schoolyard

Away from the other boys

Away from the other boys

He just sat there dreaming

Waiting for the bell

Hoping to avoid

All of the other boys

They'd say don't move now

And we might let you go

Not one sound and no one will ever know

Life could be so easy

If you'd just start acting more like the other boys

More like the other boys

He said I won't

So let me bleed

You can't decide

My life for me

And my love

Doesn't define

Cause you have your way

And I have mine

His father never bothered to try and understand it

He said you're not my son

Must be the devils one

Didn't I try to raise you like a man?

Just like the other boys

Just like the other boys

Why don't you find yourself a nice girl

Get hitched and settle down

If you keep on going that way

They're gonna run you out of town
