Lyrics
Daniel, do you remember
You were in such a state
The boys that wait
Outside your house
Have got your number
And are not afraid to use it
They'll probably give it out
To anyone they see
Including me
They'll probably make up your mind
As if you want them to
Oh, you
Those boys tell you what to do
All the time
On and later on you said
I could be just what I want
And they said you're lying
Well you were born to be an astronaut
And you'll do that or die trying
What a way to live and die
And you wonder why
Boys will cry
Boys will be boys
They should listen
Do as their mothers tell them
If you know what's good for you
Behave yourself this time for me
If you know what's good for you
Don't lay around complaining all day
Oh, my
The boys that wait are on the line
And they're not crying
On and later on
You will tell them what went wrong
And they'll say you're lying
But you were born to be an astronaut
And you'll do that or die trying
There'd be nothing wrong with that, ah, ah, ah
Oh, you waste your time
C-come waste mine
Oh, my
The boys that wait are on the line
And they're not crying
On and later on
You will tell them what went wrong
And they'll say you're lying
But you were born an astronaut
To do it or die trying
There'd be nothing wrong with that, ah, ah, ah
