The boy's gone
The boy's gone home
The boy's gone
The boy's gone home

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 gone 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 around 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
So we better be happy now that we'll all go home
Oh 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
Because you say that this, this is something else, alright
I say that this, this is a something else, alright
I say that this, ooh this is something, this is something else
Ohh, th-th-this is ohh
Th-th-this is, yeah
Th-th-this is all something else

Well I tried to live my life and live it so well
But 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
I'm gonna be happy with the way that I am
I'm gonna be happy with all that I stand for
And I'm gonna be happy now because the boy's going home
The boy's going home

The boy is going home
The boy is going home
The boy is going home
The boy is going home
The boy is going home
