The Boys Light Up
Australian Crawl
[Verse 1]
I wanna tell you 'bout my mountain home
Where all the ladies' names are Joan
Where husband works back late at night
Hopes are up for trousers down with a hostess on a business flight
Oh, taxi in a Mercedes drive
I hope that driver's comin' out alive
The garden, it is dorseted, that lady, she's so corseted
She's got fifteen ways to lead that boy astray
He thinks he's one and only, but that lovely, she's so lonely
She pumps him full of breakfast and she sends him on his way

[Pre-Chorus]
What a sing-song dance
What a performance
What a cheap tent show
Oh, no, no, no, no, no

[Chorus]
Then the boys light up
Then the boys light up
Then the boys light up
Then the boys light up, light up, light up
Then the boys light up
Then the boys light up
Then the boys light up
Then the boys light up, light up, light up
[Verse 2]
Silently, she opens the drawer
Mother's little helper is comin' out for more
Strategically positioned before the midday show
Her back is arched, those lips are parched, repeated blow by blow
Later, at the party, all the MPs rave
'Bout the hummers she's been givin' and the money that they save
To her, it is skin lotion, him, promotion to that
Flat in Surfer's Paradise with the ocean view

[Pre-Chorus]
What a sing-song dance
What a performance
What a cheap tent show
Oh, no, no, no, no, no

[Chorus]
Then the boys light up
Then the boys light up
Then the boys light up
Then the boys light up, light up, light up
Then the boys light up
Then the boys light up
Then the boys light up
Then the boys light up, light up, light up
Then the boys light up
Then the boys light up
Then the boys light up
Then the boys light up
Then the boys light up
Then the boys light up
Then the boys light up
Then the boys light up
[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
Then the boys light up
Then the boys light up
Then the boys light up
Then the boys light up, light up, light up
Then the boys light up
Then the boys light up
Then the boys light up
Then the boys light up, light up, light up
Then the boys light up (Then the boys light up)
Then the boys light up (Then the boys light up)
Then the boys light up (Then the boys light up)
Then the boys light up, light up, light up
Then the boys light up (Then the boys light up)
Then the boys light up (Then the boys light up)
Then the boys light up (Then the boys light up)
Then the boys light up, light up, light up
Then the boys light up (Then the boys light up)
Then the boys light up (Then the boys light up)
Then the boys light up (Then the boys light up)
Then the boys light up
