I’m smart enough to question why
if someone tells me “boys don’t cry”
‘cause i know everybody hurts sometimes
And even though i’m big and tough
i don’t always want to play rough
I curl up like a cat and read sometimes
Don’t try to put me in a box
‘cause i love both plain and monster socks
No matter which I choose today, hey!
being me rocks, being me rocks
Boys will be boys
We will be brave and strong and daring
also gentle, kind and caring
Boys will be boys
We will tackle problems gracefully
Believe in us and we will bring you joy
‘cause boys will be boys
I can kick a ball real far
or write a song with my guitar
I like so many things I could never choose just one
I’m friends with both boys and girls
We each make up half of the world
and I don’t wanna miss out on half the fun
You cannot put me in a box
because I am clever like a fox
I am happy being me
‘cause being me rocks, being me rocks
Boys will be boys
We will be brave and strong and daring
also gentle, kind and caring
Boys will be boys
We will tackle problems gracefully
Believe in us and we will bring you joy
‘cause boys will be boys
Oh oh oh oh boy
Oh oh oh oh boy
Oh oh oh oh boy
oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy
Boys will be boys
We will be brave and strong and daring
also gentle, kind and caring
Boys will be boys
We will tackle problems gracefully
Believe in us and we will bring you joy
‘cause boys will be boys
