[Intro]
Boys will be boys, but girls will be women
Boys will be boys, but girls will be women
Boys will be boys, but girls will be women (Hey!)
Boys will be boys, but girls will be women
Boys will be boys, but girls will be women
Boys will be boys, but girls will be women
Boys will be boys, but girls will be women
[Verse 1]
It's second nature to walk home before the sun goes down
And put your keys between your knuckles when there's boys around
Isn't it funny how we laugh it off to hide our fear
When there's nothing funny here? (Ah)
Sick intuition that they taught us, so we won't freak out
We hide our figures, doing anything to shut their mouths
We smile away to ease the tension so it don't go south
But there's nothing funny now (Ah)
[Pre-Chorus]
When will we stop saying things?
'Cause they're all listening
No, the kids ain't alright
Oh, and they do what they see
'Cause it's all on TV
Oh, the kids ain't alright
[Chorus]
Boys will be, boys will be (Boys will be boys, but girls will be women)
Boys will be, boys will be boys (Boys will be boys, but)
But girls will be women
Boys will be, boys will be (Boys will be boys, but girls will be women)
Boys will be, boys will be boys (Boys will be boys, but)
But girls will be women (Hey!)
Boys will be, boys will be (Boys will be boys, but girls will be women)
Boys will be, boys will be boys (Boys will be boys, but)
But girls will be women
Boys will be, boys will be (Boys will be boys, but girls will be women)
Boys will be, boys will be boys (Boys will be boys, but)
But girls will be women
[Post-Chorus]
But girls will be women
But girls will be women
[Outro]
Boys will be boys, but girls will be women
Boys will be boys, but girls will be women
Boys will be boys, but girls will be women
Boys will be boys, but girls will be women (Hey!)
Boys will be boys, but girls will be women
Boys will be boys, but girls will be women
Boys will be boys, but girls will be women
Boys will be boys, but girls will be women
Boys will be boys, but girls will be women
Boys will be boys, but girls will be women
Boys will be boys, but girls will be women (Hey!)
Boys will be boys, but girls will be women
Boys will be boys, but girls will be women
Boys will be boys, but girls will be women
Boys will be boys, but girls will be women
