When I was young
Oh I'd gaze at the sky
And look for a spaceship still blinking
Transmitting hope like a ship in the night
And keeping my mind always thinking
Boys will be boys, don't ever look back
One year of college
Then back on the road
Your classes and books don't concern me
I prefer knowledge I find on my own
There's always a lesson worth learning
Boys will be boys, don't ever look back
So we all throw our hands in the air
And pray to the gods that we hope are still there
Oh we all throw our hands in the air
There're somethings that hearts and minds can't compare
Gather your money and pay up your rent
Pack up the car and start driving
In the horizon you'll find your new place
Every moment spent livings spent dying
Boys will be boys, don't ever look back
Get out the car let it roll in the lake
Walk to the woods then start running
Leave it behind take a new point of view
Let the shadows collapse in the sunlight
Boys will be boys, don't ever look back
So we all throw our hands in the air
And pray to the gods that we hope are still there
Oh we all throw our hands in the air
There're somethings that hearts and minds can't compare
When I look back from the end of my life
I'll know every moment was my way
If I bite the bullet or fall on a knife
I'll go out with a smile on my face
Boys will be boys, don't ever look back
So we all throw our hands in the air
And pray to the gods that we hope are still there
Oh we all throw our hands in the air
There're somethings that hearts and minds can't compare
Throw your hands in the air
And pray to the gods that we hope are still there
Oh we all throw our hands in the air
There're somethings that hearts and minds can't compare
