Down Boys Lyrics

    You were tryin' to be cute
    And it didn't work out
    You were tryin' to be charming
    And it didn't come off
    You were tryin' to be clever
    A big waste of time
    You were tryin' to get rough
    But you're waiting in line

    You can't make it with the down boys
    They don't hear a word you say
    You can't make it with the down boys
    Uh just stay out of their way

    You were trying to be sharp
    But they couldn't wait
    You were trying to be eternal
    But uh that didn't rate
    You were tryin' to be smooth
    You're rough on the edges
    You were tryin' to be, hysterical
    And i still ain't laughin'

    You can't make it with the down boys
    Uh they don't hear a word you say
    You can't make it with the down boys
    Just stay out of their way

    You were tryin' to be in
    But they left you out [yelp?]
    You were tryin' to be in
    Two different worlds
    You were tryin' to be in
    Oscillation in shame
    You were tryin' to be in
    But you're lost in the game

    You can't make it with the down boys
    They don't hear a word you say
    You can't make it with the down boys
    Uh just stay out of their way
    Stay out of their way
    Out of their way

    You can't make it with the down boys
    Uh they don't hear a word you say
    You can't make it with the down boys
    Just stay out of their way
