Nice Boys

(album: My Paper Made Men - 2008)

Never had a man who can
Always had to do it for myself
Never had a master plan
That involved anybody else
Who needs monogamy
When there's no doubt
And you don't ask
Who needs compromise
When there's no fear
That it won't last

And all the good boys they don't cut it
And all the nice boys with Christian smiles
They just can't reach it

Guess it's right what they say
Nice boys finish last (Nice boys finish last)
Too easy to swallow, too happy, too hollow
Nice boys finish last
Nice boys they don't last
Nice boys they don't last
Nice boys they don't last, they don't last, last

Never had a man who can
It's not about what's safe and good for you
Sitting there with threads of love
Held up by heart and heaven knew

And all the good boys they don't cut it
And all the nice boys with Christian smiles
They just can't reach it

Guess it's right what they say
Nice boys finish last
Too easy to swallow, too happy, too hollow
Nice boys finish last
Nice boys, nice boys they don't last
Nice boys they don't last
Nice boys they don't last, they don't last, last
Nice boys they don't last
Nice boys they don't last
Nice boys they don't last, they don't last, last

Happy you, unhappy me
I walk with glass, you walk with sand
Life's too short and goes too fast
Nice boys, nice boys, nice boys, nice boys
Nice boys finish last
Nice boys they don't last
Nice boys they don't last
Nice boys they don't last, they don't last, last
Nice boys they don't last
Nice boys they don't last
Nice boys they don't last, they don't last, last
Nice boys they don't last
Nice boys they don't last
Nice boys they don't last, they don't last, last
Nice boys they don't last
Nice boys they don't last
Nice boys they don't last, they don't last, last

They don't last, they don't last, last, last, last
They don't last, they don't last, last, last, last

Nice boys
Nice boys they don't last
Nice boys they don't last
Nice boys they don't last, they don't last, last
Nice boys they don't last
Nice boys they don't last
Nice boys they don't last, they don't last, last
