LYRICS FOR "Boys in the Band"
You're walking like you never seen the light
You're walking like it every night
But I've never seen you dance
And I've never heard you sing
So how can it mean a single thing
It's all so rudimentary
You're talking like your handy in a fight
You talk about it every night
But I've never seen those flowers
In the barrel of a gun
All I've ever seen you do is run
It's all so rudimentary
But tell me baby
How does it feel?
I know you like the roll
Of the limousine wheel
And they all get them out for
For the boys in the band
They twist and they shout for
For the boys in the band
You're walking like you never seen the light
You're walking like it every night
But then I stop to think
And I ask myself
One of those things that darling you must try
It's all so rudimentary
Now I'm jealous
I'm jealous of my own
I've no homestead
But through these hearts I will roam
And they all get them out for
For the boys in the band
They scream and they shout for
For the boys in the band
But tell me baby
How does it feel?
I know you like the roll
Of the limousine wheel
And they all get them out so
For the boys in the band
They scream and they shout for
For the boys in the band
Yes they all want them out for
For the boys in the band
They scream and they shout for
For the boys in the band
