What Do You Want the Boy to Do? Lyrics
Advisory - the following lyrics contain explicit language:
So you think the man is crazy
He eats up your lies
Like they're good for him
Apple pie, he don't even cryHe's not a fool
He's just tryin' to do
What his heart says to
To love youAs you take to the wind
To the wind again my friend
As he breaks down within
Within, within, withinHe waits for you patiently
Hopin' that one day you'll see
That all he really wants to be
Is yours and yours alone eternallyWhat do you want the boy to do?
Don't you see you're breaking the child in two?
What do you want the boy to do?
All he really wants is youHe knows what you are
Still he'll be up game
Saved the world today
(You know better)
You don't go around himNow and then you promise
All the way out things that you're gonna get
You will see, you will be
So damn glad that you finally found himAs he watches you come and go
Or you show
As he watched you promise a zero
Zero, zero, zeroHe waits for you patiently
Hopin' that one day you'll see
That all he really wants to be
Is yours and yours alone eternallyWhat do you want the boy to do?
Don't you see you're breaking the child in two?
What do you want the boy to do?
Don't you see that you're breaking the child in two?What do you want the boy to do?
Don't you see that you're breaking the child in two?
What do you want the boy to do?
Don't you see that you're breaking the child in two?What do you want the boy to do?
Don't you see that you're breaking the child in two?
(You're breaking the child in two)
What do you want the boy to do?
