  1. The boy's gone

  2. The boy's gone home

  3. The boy's gone

  4. The boy's gone home

  5. And what will happen to a face in the crowd

  6. When it finally gets too crowded?

  7. And what will happen to the origins of sound

  8. After all the sounds have sounded?

  1. Well, I hope I never have to see that day

  2. But by God I know it's headed our way

  3. So I better be happy now that the boy's going home

  4. The boy's gone home

  5. And what becomes of a day for those who rage against it

  6. And who will sum up the phrase for all left standing round in it

  7. Well, I suppose we'll all make our judgement calls

  8. We'll walk it alone, stand up tall, then march to the fall

  9. And we better be happy now that we'll all go home

  10. Yeah, we'll all go home

  11. Be so happy with the way you are

  12. Just be happy that you made it this far

  13. Go on, be happy now

  14. Please be happy now

  15. 'Cause you say that this, this is something else

  16. All right, I say that this, this is something else

  17. Well all right, I say that this, oh, this is something, this is something else

  18. Oo thi-thi-thi-thi-this is all, thi-thi-thi-thi-this is yeah

  19. Thi-thi thi-thi-thi-this is all something else

  20. Well I tried to live my life, I lived it so well

  21. When it's all over, is it heaven or is it hell?

  22. So I better be happy now that no one can tell, so nobody knows

  23. I'm gonna be happy with the way that I am

  24. I'm gonna be happy with all that I stand for

  25. And I'm gonna be happy now 'cause the boy's going home

  26. The boy's gone home

  27. Yeah, the boy's gone home

  28. Yeah, the boy's gone home

  29. Yeah, the boy's going home, gone home

  30. Yeah, the boy's going home

  31. Yeah, the boy

The Boy’s Gone

The boy's gone

The boy's gone home

The boy's gone

The boy's gone home

And what will happen to a face in the crowd

When it finally gets too crowded?

And what will happen to the origins of sound

After all the sounds have sounded?

Well, I hope I never have to see that day

But by God I know it's headed our way

So I better be happy now that the boy's going home

The boy's gone home

And what becomes of a day for those who rage against it

And who will sum up the phrase for all left standing round in it

Well, I suppose we'll all make our judgement calls

We'll walk it alone, stand up tall, then march to the fall

And we better be happy now that we'll all go home

Yeah, we'll all go home

Be so happy with the way you are

Just be happy that you made it this far

Go on, be happy now

Please be happy now

'Cause you say that this, this is something else

All right, I say that this, this is something else

Well all right, I say that this, oh, this is something, this is something else

Oo thi-thi-thi-thi-this is all, thi-thi-thi-thi-this is yeah

Thi-thi thi-thi-thi-this is all something else

When it's all over, is it heaven or is it hell?

So I better be happy now that no one can tell, so nobody knows
