elephants - alice wallace lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
walk with a purpose through the parking lot
keys in your knuckles ’cause you ain’t got claws
remembering when your daddy taught you that
boys will be boys, gotta watch your back

[verse 2]
sitting there drinking at the bar alone
sharks come circle, wanna take you home
you better not play coy, better not be mean
’cause boys will be boys and they are fragile things

[chorus]
and they got names for the ones that talk back
and the ones who wear those clothes
they got names for the ones that say “yes”
and the ones who say “no”

[verse 3]
“hey baby, why ya gotta be that way?
“give us a smile, you got a pretty face”
there are things you do and things you can’t
live quiet as a mouse in a room full of elephants

[verse 4]
don’t he look so handsome in his sunday best?
he said he’s sorry, you know the rest
you shouldn’t really blame him, he’s just a kid
boys will be boys, why don’tcha call him what he is?

[chorus]
and they got names for the ones that talk back
and the ones who wear those clothes
they got names for the ones that say “yes”
and the ones who say–
they got names for the ones that talk back
and the ones who wear those clothes
they got names for the ones that say “yes”
and the ones who say “no”

[outro]
“hey baby, why ya gotta be that way?”
