Boys
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
They always tell us things to make us jealous
Never show us that they really know us
Never please us
Always trying to tease us
Why, oh, why
Boys, they're always hurting little girls
Boys, they're always hurting little girls
They always tell us things to make us jealous
Never show us that they really know us
Never please us
Always trying to tease us
Why, oh, why
Boys, they're always calling someone names
Boys, they're always playing so many games
Well now they always tell us things to make us jealous
Never show us that they really know us
Never please us
Always trying to tease us
Why, oh, why
Boys, they always, always make us cry
Boys, they always tell a little lie
They always tell us things to make us jealous
Never show us that they really know us
Never please us
Always trying to tease us
Why, oh, why
Boys, boys, boys!
