Boys Don’t Have to Be Boys Lyrics by Mating Ritual

Hot Content

2019

[Verse 1]
You say that you feel nothing in your soul
A lifetime being told "Aggression gets the gold"
You don't have to be violent
You don't have to be cold
It don't make you a man to be out of control
[Chorus]
'Cause boys don't have to be boys
No more violence, no more toys
Boys don't have to be boys
To be boys
[Verse 2]
This house is full of doors with no exit signs
We've come a long way, but we're miles behind
So crack open a window, grab your radio
You don't have to be toxic everywhere that you go
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause boys don't have to be boys
I said, boys don't have to be boys
I said, boys don't have to be boys
To be boys
[Chorus]
Come on
No excuses, no noise
No more violence, no more toys
'Cause boys don't have to be boys
To be boys
[Chorus]
Oh, no excuses, no noise
No more violence, no more toys
Come on, boys don't have to be boys
To be boys
[Outro]
(Boys don't have to be boys)
(Boys don't have to be boys)
(Boys don't have to be boys)
(I said, boys don't have to be boys)
