lyrics
I walked into that room
wanting to collapse into yr arms
but I just stood there.
Hey, what can I say?
I was raised by American men
Always keep a stoic face
bottled and silent
emotion motionless
But I've been trying to change
ever since I told that friend
I think I'm a feminist
They just chuckled and laughed
"Boys don't cry so good luck with that"
That's totally untrue
I remember that funeral
and everyone in those pews
But they just stood there
bottled and silent
like all those American men
I've come to know and love
Boys don't cry?
Hey, what can I say?
This is how we were raised
Always keep a stoic face
bottled and silent
emotion motionless
Boys don't cry?
