Broken Boy Soldier

The Raconteurs

3

I'm pulling down questions from the shelf

I'm asking forgiveness

I ain't asking nobody but myself

And I want you to know this

And I want you to know this

You rightfully threw a box of toys

That were handed down to me

Just take out the ones you brought and then

Give the rest to my family

I'm gonna go back to school today

But I'm dropping myself off

I'm throwing the child seat away

I'm through ripping myself off

I'm done ripping myself off

I'm child and man and child again

A toy broken boy soldier

I'm child and man then child again

The boy never gets older

The boy never gets older

The boy never gets older

The boy never gets older

The boy never gets older

Never gets older

The boy broken toy soldier

The boy...

The boy!
