Song lyrics

It's second nature to walk home before the sun goes down
And put your keys between your knuckles when there's boys around
Isn't it funny how we laugh it off to hide our fear
When there's nothing funny here

Sick intuition that they taught us so we won't freak out
We hide our figures, doing anything to shut their mouths
We smile away to ease the tension so it don't go south
But there's nothing funny now

When will we stop saying things
‘Cause they're all listening
No, the kids ain't alright
Oh and they do what they see
‘Cause it's all on TV
Oh, the kids ain't alright

Boys will be, boys will be, boys will be, boys will be boys
But girls will be women
Boys will be, boys will be, boys will be, boys will be boys
But girls will be women

I'm sure if there is something that I can't find the words to say
I know that there will be a man around to save the day
And that was sarcasm in case you needed it mainsplained
I should've stuck to ballet

When will we stop saying things
‘Cause they're all listening
No, the kids ain't alright
Oh and they do what they see
‘Cause it's all on TV
Oh, the kids ain't alright

Boys will be, boys will be, boys will be, boys will be boys
But girls will be women
Boys will be, boys will be, boys will be, boys will be boys
But girls will be women

If you're offended by this song
You're clearly doing something wrong
If you're offended by this song
Then you're probably saying
Boys will be, boys will be, boys will be, boys will be boys
But girls will be women

When will we stop saying things
‘Cause they're all listening
No, the kids ain't alright
Oh and they do what they see
‘Cause it's all on TV
Oh, the kids ain't alright

Boys will be, boys will be, boys will be, boys will be boys
But girls will be women
Boys will be, boys will be, boys will be, boys will be boys
But girls will be women
