Ben Lee - Boy With A Barbie lyrics

rate me

<BR>

I was a boy with a barbie when they teased me it was hard <br>

Just a boy with a barbie from the start <br>

Don't think it meant to break my heart <br>

<br>

I was a boy with a barbie this is beautiful and true <br>

I had a crush on every girl I saw they never knew <br>

I've never told a single soul but you <br>

<br>

<i>[Chorus]</i><br>

Boys with their barbies and girls with toy armies <br>

We don't have to play by their rules <br>

<br>

I don't know where it started, all these roles and make believe <br>

Just a boy with a totem make believe <br>

Now it seems naive, I kept my heart upon my sleeve <br>

<br>

I was a boy with a barbie and the teachers looked concerned <br>

Although they tried to stop me getting burned <br>

I guess they didn't realize it would hurt <br>

<br>

<i>[Chorus]</i><br>

Boys with their barbies and girls with toy armies <br>

We don't have to play by their rules <br>

<br>

Boys being prudes while the girls make thier moves <br>

We don't have to play by their rules <br>

<br>

So let them wear that dress, let them make that mess <br>

Let em take that fall, let em kick that ball <br>

And thank to the ones that tried to stop my fun <br>

You made me what I am, you made me what I am <br>

You made me a man <br>

<br>

<i>[Chorus]</i><br>

Boys with their barbies and girls with toy armies <br>

We don't have to play by their rules <br>

<br>

Boys staying home while their girls on the run <br>

We don't have to play by their rules <br>

Play by their rules<br>

<BR><BR>

<BR>
