I'm A Boy

One girl was called Jean-Marie
Another little girl was called Felicity
Another little girl was Sally-Joy
The other was me, and I'm a boy

My name is Bill and I'm a headcase
They practice making-up on my face
Yeah, I feel lucky if I get trousers to wear
Spend evenings taking hairpins from my hair

I'm a boy, I'm a boy
But my ma won't admit it
I'm a boy, I'm a boy
But if I say I am I get it

Get your frock on, Jean-Marie
Plait your hair, Felicity
Paint your nails, little Sally-Joy
Put this wig on, little Boy

I'm a boy, I'm a boy
But my ma won't admit it
I'm a boy, I'm a boy
But if I say I am I get it

Help me wash up, Jean-Marie
You can dry, Felicity
Stack the dishes, Sally-Joy
Behind them struggles, I'm a Boy

I'm a boy, I'm a boy
But my ma won't admit it
I'm a boy, I'm a boy
But if I say I am I get it

I wanna play cricket on the green
Ride my bike across the stream
Cut myself and see my blood
I wanna come home all covered in mud

I'm a boy, I'm a boy
But my ma won't admit it
I'm a boy, I'm a boy, I'm a boy
I'm a boy, I'm a boy, I'm a boy, I'm a boy
I'm a boy, I'm a boy, I'm a boy
