Talkin' to ya
War, war boys
War, war, war boys
War, war, war, war boys
Talkin' to ya
War boys, war, war boys
You take a child away from home, you know it's not funny
Unless he's tough enough
He hangs around where danger's found, out looking for money
Scraps are not enough
Fighting just to stay at the top
Too hot to cool down, hot to cool down
Though the winter is falling, the fever is high
What to do when the well runs dry?
What to do when he can't get high?
War, war, war, war boys
Talkin' to ya
War boys, a-war, war boys
Fighting just to stay at the top
To never feel sadness
Love is just another war without any soldiers
And no sides left to choose
When the girls go walking by, they hold their expressions
They're the ones who choose (War boys)
Fighting just to stay at the top
Oh, to be cruel, to be cruel (War boys)
They kick and they cuss, but who's really best?
They could really be your heroes
But they'd rather ruin your lives
War, war, war, war boys
Talkin' to ya
(Have no fear, the boys are here)
War boys, war, war boys
Don't be afraid, girls
Just show you're strong
And who's boss when they are wrong
You and your body talk
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha
What you gonna do when the well runs dry?
What you gonna do when you cannot get high?
Well, what you gonna do when you cannot fight?
Well, what you gonna do when you're out at night?
War, war boys
They run around, they go around just looking for trouble
Well, they can feel the heat
Weak lives are their jewelry, they don't care about you or me
There's no tomfoolery
Fighting just to stay at the top
(Talkin' to ya)
Too hot to cool down, hot to cool down
If they were real soldiers, they'd know how to stand still
What to do when there's time to kill?
Over and over and on the run
What to do when you're not around?
What to do when you're not at school?
They could really be your heroes
But they'd rather ruin your lives
Talkin' to ya
Have no fear, the boys are here
Have no fear, the boys are here
Talkin' to ya
Have no fear, the boys are here
Have no fear, the boys are here
Talkin' to ya
Have no fear, the boys are here
Have no fear, the boys are here
Have no fear
