lyrics

When I was a little boy
I wanted to make a great big noise

Well I did and I liked it
But my mom thought it was frightening
You better come back down before you break your neck and
Get struck by lightening

Then I met a little girl
I wanted to show her my new toy
Well I did and she liked it
But she also thought it was frightening
You better go back home before my dad finds out and
You get struck by lightening

My dad said, “boy, you’ve got to be a man.”
And then he said a lot of things I didn’t understand
I didn’t know what he was talking about
And I didn’t know where he went

When he went out
But I know what happened
He got struck by lightening

Then I saw her kiss a man
I wanted to kill him with my bare hands

Well I did and I liked it
I also thought it was frightening
You better run away before the cops get here and
You get struck by lightening
