The Trouble With Boys

Roy Stride

[Verse 1]
I thought I'd have life figured out by now
At my age, my dad had built himself a house
I need a manual just to change a plug
But I wrote the book on how to get drunk
I don't feel different to when I was eighteen
Except I got a house I have to keep clean
A wife and kids that I never wanna leave
But some days, I can't hide me

[Chorus]
And that's the trouble with boys (boys, boys)
You don't have to read Freud (Freud, freud)
'Cause if you give us the choice ('cause if you give us the choice)
We'll go get drunk with the boys (boys, boys)
And that's the trouble with boys

[Post-Chorus]
And that's the trouble with boys
And that's the trouble with boys ('cause if you give us the choice)
And that's the trouble with boys (boys, boys)

[Verse 2]
I still find jokes about yo' momma funny
I spend too much and never save my money
My best mates are still my old school friends
I had life worked out a little better back then
I still play football and I stay up too late
Although I sometimes need to sleep in the day
I ain't the guy in the mirror, no way
In my head, I never changed

[Chorus]
And that's the trouble with boys (boys, boys)
You don't have to read Freud (Freud, Freud)
'Cause if you give us the choice ('cause if you give us the choice)
We'll go get drunk with the boys (boys, boys)
And that's the trouble with boys

[Post-Chorus]
And that's the trouble with boys
And that's the trouble with boys ('cause if you give us the choice)
And that's the trouble with boys (boys, boys)

[Bridge]
Don't get annoyed
'Cause boys will be boys
And they don't wanna talk about it
No, they don't wanna talk about it
So don't get annoyed (don't get annoyed)
'Cause boys will be boys (they will be boys)
And they don't wanna talk about it
No, they don't wanna talk about it
So don't get annoyed (don't get annoyed)
'Cause boys will be boys (boys)
But they don't wanna talk about it
No, they don't wanna talk about it

[Chorus]
And that's the trouble with boys (boys, boys)
You don't have to read Freud (Freud, Freud)
'Cause if you give us the choice ('cause if you give us the choice)
We'll go get drunk with the boys (boys, boys)
And that's the trouble with boys

[Outro]
And that's the trouble with boys
And that's the trouble with boys ('cause if you give us the choice)
And that's the trouble with boys (boys, boys)
