Lyrics
she had a presence
as alive as the new spring air
her eyes penetrating
all of my childish games ensnared
I was one of the boys
one of the boys
being one of the boys
one of the boys
she took me to a new place
with her elevating smile
a beauty mark on her pure face
intoxicating and fragile
I was one of the boys
one of the boys
being one of the boys
one of the boys
but now her body's a creature
an object of geometric shapes
cold symmetrical features
either she loves me or she hates
when I'm one of the boys
one of the boys
being one of the boys
one of the boys
sampling heaven's perfection
like eating a gluttonous buffet
she drove me into obsession
having to finally face the day
for being one of the boys
one of the boys
being one of the boys
one of the boys
