Little Boy Lost Lyrics

Little Boy Lost, he sits so high in his chair

Wondering where now

What now and who will care

Now he's out discovering secret pathways to some pirate's hidden treasure

Back at home, the heat is on as night falls

And the cold outside is biting

Right down to his young bones

Will he ever come home?

There's a little boy lost

Call out the army

There's a little boy lost

Start up the inquiry

Appeal to the neighbors you never appealed to before

You're dragging your heavy hearts

All around town, door to door

While out of town, the party's on

The search is out, not taking any chances

They're beating 'round the bush

But if they look, they're all just false romances

Why should they bother at all?

They never bothered to call for the

Little boy lost

Call out the army

There's a little boy lost

Start up the inquiry

The boys in blue will work for you

They'll bring him back, dead or alive

Little Boy Lost is now Little Boy Blue in the lake

It's the last place you will look

You're hoping that he's still awake

They've got their wet suits out

Their cheque books out

Just start swimming in your tired eyes

But when the morning comes

They'll find you waking

Shivering from the night's lies

How could you do this to me?

Sit lit on the TV

They just keep telling me

There's a little boy lost

Call out the army

There's a little boy lost

Start up the inquiry

There's a little boy lost

Call out the army

There's a little boy lost

Start up the inquiry
