I wont forget when Peter Pan Came to my house, took my hand I said, I was a boy Im glad he didnt check I learned to fly, I learned to fight I lived a whole life in one night We saved each others lives Out on the pirates deck And I remember that night When Im leaving a late night with some friends And I hear somebody tell me Its not safe, someone should help me I need to find a nice man to walk me home When I was a boy I scared the pants off of my mom Climbed what I could climb upon And I dont know how I survived I guess I knew the tricks that all boys knew And you can walk me home But I was a boy, too I was a kid that you would like Just a small boy on her bike Riding topless, yeah I never cared who saw My neighbor come outside To say, Get your shirt, I said No way, its the last time Im not breaking any law And now Im in this clothing store And the signs say less is more More thats tight means more to see More for them, not more for me That cant help me climb a tree in ten seconds flat When I was a boy, see that picture? That was me Grass-stained shirt and dusty knees And I know things have gotta change They got pills to sell, theyve got implants to put in Theyve got implants to remove But I am not forgetting That I was a boy too And like the woods where I would creep Its a secret I can keep Except when Im tired Cept when Im being caught off guard And Ive had a lonesome awful day The conversation finds its way To catching fire-flies Out in the backyard And I so tell the man Im with About the other life I lived And I say now youre top gun I have lost and you have won And he says, Oh no, no, cant you see When I was a girl, my mom And I we always talked And I picked flowers Everywhere that I walked And I could always cry Now even when Im alone I seldom do And I have lost some kindness But I was a girl too And you were just like me And I was just like you
