Runaway Boys

Get kicked out for coming home at dawn
 Mum and dad cursed the day you were born
 Throw your clothes into a duffel bag
 Shouting and slam the door at home to drug
 Who can I turn to, where can I stay
 I've heard of places open all night and all day
 There's a place you can go where the cops don't know
 You can act real wild, they don't treat you like a child
 Runaway boys
 Your hair's all greasy and you feel like a slob
 You're only 15 and you can't get a job
 Run into the luncheonette and shoot a few games
 Who's lonely 'cause man it's always the same
 Steal a couple of bucks to buy a new toy
 Slip into the alley with the runaway boys
 Runaway boys
 Running faster, faster all the time
 You're under age and God knows that's a crime
 Get kicked out for coming home at dawn
 Mum and dad cursed the day you were born
 Throw your clothes into a duffel bag
 Shouting and slam the door at home to drug
 Who can I turn to, where can I stay
 I've heard of places open all night and all day
 There's a place you can go where the cops don't know
 You can act real wild, they don't treat you like a child
 Runaway boys
 Running faster, faster all the time
 You're under age and God knows that's a crime
 Runaway boys, runaway boys ...
