Like A Boy Lyrics


Nick Pitera Like A Boy

[Intro]
Sing like a boy (ah oo)

[Verse 1]
The name is Nick, it's so nice to know ya
Just a kid from South Minnesota
Tryin' keep my feet off the ground
And head up in the clouds (ah oo)
Yes, it's true
I act differently
This apple fell far from the home tree
But I survived the fall (survived the fall!)
They're always askin' me why
Do I gotta sing high?
Sayin' I sound like a girl (like a girl!)
Although it's normal to me
It may not seem so manly
In a small minded world (small minded world!)

[Pre-Chorus]
You say stay in the box, don't wander! (stop!)
Slow down, there's danger ahead, don't enter! (no!)
You think it's causing me pain
But I throw that hate down the drain
You best believe I don't listen when I hear you

[Chorus]
Talk!
(Like a boy)
And walk!
(Like a boy)
Can't you sing?
(Like a boy)
See I try
Just my best to be me
And that makes me feel free (that's why)
I gotta sing high
Sing like a boy (ah oo)

[Verse 2]
Growing up, my freak card was prepaid
'Cause I learned to sing from a mermaid
I don't know when and I don't know how
But something starts right now! (ah oo)
Now that I'm big and outgrown my stroller
Gotta case of vocal bipolar
Don't know which way to turn! (which way to turn!)
Sometimes I'm up, sometimes down
And then I flip it around
I wanna break all the rules (break the rules!)
Well, now let me rephrase
I just like singing both ways
So try not to be cruel (don't be cruel!)

[Pre-Chorus]
You say stay in the box, don't wander! (stop!)
Slow Down there's danger ahead, don't enter (no!)
You think it's causing me pain
But I throw that hate down the drain
You best believe I don't listen when I hear you

[Chorus]
Talk!
(Like a boy)
And walk!
(Like a boy)
Can't you sing?
(Like a boy)
See I try
Just my best to be me
And that makes me feel free (that's why)
I gotta sing high!

[Bridge]
When I'm told to conform
And just blend in with the norm
I hear a voice in my head
It's saying lash out instead!
So you better beware!
This girly voice doesn't care
I'll sing it all
Away!

[Pre-Chorus]
You say stay in the box, don't wander (stop!)
Slow down there's danger ahead, don't enter (no!)
You think it's causing me pain
But I throw that hate down the drain
You best believe I don't listen when I hear you

[Chorus]
Talk!
(Like a Boy)
And walk!
(Like a boy)
Can't you sing?
(Like a boy)
See I try
Just my best to be me
And that makes me feel free (that's why)
I gotta sing high

(vocalizing)

Sing like a boy
Sing like a boy
