The only time you have to practise things like those is
When you’re a boy!
And yet, I don’t believe I’d change a thing
For any boy;
You’ve got to laugh, to cry, to work, to sing,
To be a boy;
With all his thoughtless noise and care less play,
With all his heartfelt trials day by day,
With all his boyish hopes and all his fears,
I’d like to live on earth a thousand years
