  • From the time it all began
    Not a chance for poor Adam
    Mystery favorite toy
    Achilles heal of every boy
    Break the hearts
    Break the law
    Go to jail go to hell give up god country crown go to war
    Different page same old story
    Watch em rise watch em fall
    What the boy will do for the girl

    Something spark the young man's nerves
    Just a sucker for the curves
    Where he's born how he's bred
    Mind no longer in his head
    Make them notice
    Different look repertoire
    Politics play a sport theater dance learn guitar be a star
    Algebra he can figure
    But the wiggle and the curl
    What the boy will do for the girl

    Shake your head
    Side to side
    Why you looking at me with these eyes

    Then the boy becomes a man
    By now he should understand
    Consequences what's at stake
    Does he learn from his mistakes
    Leave his family leave his job make new friends
    Lose his home money life move away start again
    Every minute every day
    All around the whole wide world
    What the boy will do for the girls

    Shake your head
    My oh my
    There for a goodness grace go I

    She's a maze of emotion
    He likes playing with a ball
    What the boy will do
    What the boy will do
    What the boy will do
