lirik lagu jian ghomeshi - lousy boy
[verse 1]
when i was four i thought i was a girl
i had a doll and my hair would curl
my sister let me play with her
her silly little toy brother
she and leslie put me in a dress
we all laughed, i was a pretty mess
i learned later that this was wrong
boys don’t dress up if they’re going to belong
[chorus 1]
and fair, is fair
take a shot if you dare
no guy shies from a fight
on a th-rnhill summer night
and a man, is a man
when he’s got a gun in his hand
well, i’ve never wanted to destroy
i always made a lousy boy
[verse 2]
sometimes you gotta live within your skin
sometimes you gotta take a shot on the chin
13 and i didn’t wanna get caught
they set the tussle for mac’s parking lot
me and some kid i was supposed to hate
two gladiators coming out of grade eight
and every instinct telling me that i should lie
i swallowed hard and i swallowed my pride
[chorus 1]
and fair, is fair
take a shot if you dare
no guy shies from a fight
on a th-rnhill summer night
and a man, is a man
when he’s got a gun in his hand
well, i’ve never wanted to destroy
i always made a lousy boy
[verse 3]
i sing these words and i remember that night
i’ll grow some wrinkles but i think i’m alright
sometimes i’m vulnerable, sometimes i cry
i won’t join any tribe living a lie
and i know guys who are just like me
they like hockey and poetry
i think in retrospect that we have won
i’m a full-grown man and i don’t own a gun
[chorus 2]
and fair, is fair
take a shot if you care
some guy shies from a fight
on a th-rnhill summer night
if a man, is a man
when he’s got a gun in his hand
well, i’ve never learned to destroy
i always made a lousy boy
[outro]
i always made a lousy boy
