don t show your tears boy they ll laugh you out the house got to be a man now anything less is just not allowed but don t keep it quiet girl don t rest until they come round to your way of thinking soon enough they will and all this talk of love when that s something you ve never known it s too undignified and much too close it s much too close to home times are tough and that s no way to live well you may be right but i don t like your alternative and times like these they sort the boys out from the men and down here with the girls is where i end up again and all this talk of love when that s something you ve never known it s too undignified and much too close it s much too close to home well should i say well done when i know how he was stung you were his prize and jewel you turned out to be cruel but i always rejoice to see us win some ground from off the boys and all this talk of love when that s something you ve never known it s too undignified and much too close it s much too close much too close it s much too close to home
