Lost Boy Lyrics - Singles - Darling (musical)

A little boy it's sunday mass 

and little boys get bored 

during pray idle hands neatly tear 

Jove right from the bible 

Preacher see's and he strikes him 

but the boy strikes him back 

'cause he thinks fair is fair 

They box his ears 

still he hears 

some lady swear 

That's a lost boy 

that's a lost boy 

oh if he were mine 

oh if he were mine oh oh 

His mother heard what the lady said 

but she just shook her head 

Then as the boy grew older 

he never quite grew up 

needed more so he screwed the house maid 

caught ashore away with a sailor 

Carted home almost nightly 

till he's brought into court 

and charged for all he had done 

The judge asked him why 

and the boy just said 

I thought it sounded like fun 

And the judge cried lost boy 

your a lost boy 

thank god you're not mine 

thank god you're not mine oh oh 

His father heard his sentence pass 

and man he ran so fast 

but doesn't every person deserve a second chance 

Take this boy 

free and changed now 

sick with joy 

to return to his family 

But there's some new kid 

in his window 

his father holding him tight 

he never held me before 

Just couldn't stay 

ran away 

and how he swore 

Go get lost boy 

go get lost boy 

these people aren't mine 

this family isn't mine 

and that's fine 

it's divine 

My parents wish the didn't have me 

you parents are just a mess 

and so why anybody cares for theirs 

is anybody's guess
