I'm Not Your Typical Boy Lyrics

I remember when you took me home
Your mother said, “Well done”
I didn’t understand what she meant
’Cause I was too young
She said, “He’s not your typical boy”
I’m not your typical boy

Then your father walked in
My god, I was scared!
And I shook his hand
As if it was a bit of a dare
Then he got the whiskey out
And I’d never had a drink before
Because… I’m not your typical boy

I'm getting older now, as we all are
I’ve had my share of dangers
And I’ve got my scars
But I pride myself on politeness
Politeness doesn’t cost nothing
My mother taught me that
And my father taught me that
I'm not your typical boy
I'm not your typical boy

Now I don’t know where we go from here
All I know, I’ve still got some fears
And I'm not ashamed of that
No, I’ve never been ashamed of that
Because… I'm not your typical boy

I'm not your typical boy
We’re not your typical boys
(You’re not my typical boy)
You’re not my typical girl
(You’re not my typical boy)
I'm not your typical boy

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
