Let The Boys Be Girls Lyrics

[Verse 1]
We are the sons and daughters of children
We're all just figuring it out as we go
We were born to fill a void inside our confused parents
And then we're left here to die all alone

And then we found out god was a knock-knock joke
When we answered the door, there was nobody home
Aren't you glad I didn't tell you the nonsense they fed me
All about forbidden fruit

And then they sent us off to schools, and factories, and wars
Teach us its okay to die, as long as we're poor
And then you tell me not to tread on you
In the land of the free and the home of the depraved

[Chorus]
These are the things, these are the things they never tell you
These are the things I've had to learn on my own, all alone

[Verse 2]
So let the boys be girls and the girls be boys
We can all fall in love, we can all get destroyed
We don't need old, rich, white men to tell us
Who we can kiss goodnight

'Cause we can listen to Slayer and we can just get stoned
We can teach ourselves it's okay to be alone We can start our own bands in our basements
And we can break up citing 'creative differences'

[Chorus]
These are the things, these are the things they never tell you
These are the things I've had to learn on my own
All on my own, All on my own
All on my own, All on my own
All on my own, All on my own
All on my own, All on my own
All on my own

[Verse 3]
So let's forget world wars, and government crooks
We can write our own novels, and history books
We can call this a new beginning
We can write our own soundtrack
This time around
It's gonna sound like

[Bridge]
Ba-ba ba-da-ba-ba
Ba-ba ba-da-ba-ba-da
Ba-ba ba-da-ba-ba
Ba-dee-dah, ba-dee-daah
Ba-ba ba-da-ba-ba
Ba-ba ba-da-ba-ba-da
Ba-ba ba-da-ba-ba
Ba-dee-dah, ba-dee-dah

[Verse 3]
So let's forget world wars, and government crooks
We can write our own novels, and history books
We can call this a new beginning
We can write our own soundtrack
This time around
