Lyrics

I've had nights I will never forget

I've had memorable nights that will stay with me.

I've had nights I will always regret

I've had nights that I regret deeply.

But I can take it on the chin

Despite challenges, I can handle it with resilience.

And say,

Transition to the recurring phrase.

Boys will be boys

Boys, often excusing or explaining their behavior.


There's been girls that have stolen our hearts

Girls have captured our hearts.

But their arms simply couldn't be prised apart

However, relationships with them proved difficult to end.

And they'll never let us in, say,

They may resist moving on, reinforcing the idea that boys will be boys.

Boys will be boys

Reiteration of the notion that boys will act in certain ways.


I felt driven and I felt obliged

Feeling compelled and obligated in certain situations.

I've had feelings like a thorn in my side

Experiencing emotions that are burdensome or troublesome.

I hope you never let us down, say:

Expressing a hope that expectations won't be disappointed, maintaining the boys will be boys sentiment.

Boys will be boys

Reiteration that boys will act according to expectations.


Boys will be boys

Repetition for emphasis, highlighting the inevitability of boys behaving in certain ways.

They cheat and they lie

Suggesting that deception and dishonesty are inherent in boys' behavior.

Boys will be boys

Reiteration of the idea that boys will act according to a particular pattern.

Boys will be boys

Repetition for emphasis, possibly emphasizing the inevitability of boys behaving in expected ways.

Mm

Concluding with a non-verbal expression, possibly signifying a thoughtful or reflective pause.
