I Ain’t Your Boy - Live In London

[Spoken Intro]
I'm gonna play another one off the new record
Does everyone got my new record?
That come in the brown, with the picture of me?
Thanks very much, this is another one off that
This is one of my favourites
It's called "I Ain't Your Boy"

[Verse 1]
I see the pictures on the wall
The time, the place, I don't recall
I can't swear I was there at all
Or if I'm here now
I hear the way you talk to me
It's like you're asking silently
To make it like it used to be
But I just don't know how

[Chorus]
'Cause I ain't your boy
I ain't your boy
I ain't your boy
No, I ain't your boy, nah
I ain't your boy

[Post-Chorus]
And yet I sleep in his bed
And I sleep with his wife
I know all of his friends
I inhabit his life

[Verse 2]
I watch him on the videos
The shaggy hair, the funny clothes
The naked lip beneath that nose
A muscle memory
And you wonder loudly where he is
And why he never reappears
I try to tell you through the tears
I haven't seen that kid for years

[Chorus]
And I ain't your boy
I ain't your boy
I ain't your boy
No, I ain't your boy
I, I ain't your boy

[Bridge]
And you're never gonna get him back
Never gonna get him back
Nothing's gonna bring him back
Oh nothing's gonna bring him back
And if you narrow your blue eyes then
I could be him, from way back when
And I won't mind
There is no shame
If you kiss me and call me his name

[Chorus]
I ain't your boy
I ain't your boy
I ain't your boy
No, I, I ain't your boy
I ain't your boy
Oh you're never gonna get him back
No, nothing's gonna bring him back
No, nothing's gonna bring him back
Never gonna get him back
And if you narrow those blue eyes then
I could be him, from way back when
And I won't mind
There is no shame
If you kiss me and you call me his name

[Spoken Outro]
Thanks very much, cheers
Thanks for singing, I really dig it, I really dig it
You're having the best time
I'm having a good time too
Is everyone having a good time?
