This is the first single under my new band name "CANGURU".
This song is about gender fluidity and "being who you want to be".
lyrics
“BOYS, GIRLS”
(Song &Lyrics by Colin Crichton a.k.a Canguru)
INTRO
Boys…
CHORUS
Boys, get it right.
Girls, feeling left behind.
Boys, get in the fight.
Stop crying, get it right!
Girls, get in the scene.
Boys, acting out like queens.
Live your fantasies.
Just be who you wanna be!
VERSE 1
I’m trying to make sense of it all.
Justifying the rise and fall.
Again I need to put a smiley face.
Again, playing on the virtual game.
I may have lost all at once.
But I’m back to carry on.
I cannot see the finish line.
I’m getting ready for the climb.
CHORUS
Boys, get it right.
Girls, feeling left behind.
Boys, get in the fight.
Stop whining, get it right!
VERSE 2
The pain and hurdles on the way.
Makes you tougher everyday.
I’m looking forward to her smile.
I know it took us quite a while.
The little boy also had a heart.
But always got in a fight.
Let the boys be who they want.
Let them feel the love, be kind.
CHORUS
Boys, get it right.
Girls, feeling left behind.
Boys, get in the fight.
Stop crying, get it right!
Girls, get in the scene.
Boys, acting out like queens.
Live your fantasies.
Just be who you wanna be!
Left behind…
Get it right…
CHORUS
Boys, get it right.
Girls, feeling left behind.
Boys, get in the fight.
Stop whining, get it right!
Girls, get in the scene.
Boys, acting out like queens.
Live your fantasies.
Just be who you wanna be!
