In the still of the night
Under artificial moonlight
They strike a pose
Six-pack and a cigarette
Making eyes at the girl in the red Corvette
Look at the way they wear their clothes
Muscle cars are revving it up with such enthusiastic engines
Hey, hey, gotta go
And the boys are getting it up for another night of lust and vengeance
Don't ask us any questions, mister, you don't wanna know

Maybe they're right when they tell me
That my head is in an uproar
Maybe they're right when they tell me
That my body's in a whirl
Maybe they're right when they tell me
That my heart is undecided
Maybe they're right when they tell me
That it's a man's world, but it's a boystown
Boystown
It's a boystown

Got her number written down on the back of a cocktail napkin
With the imprint of her lipstick lips
It says, "Call Marina up any time"
He's shivering, considering all those fringe benefits
"Hello, baby, let's connect a little later on this evening
Me and you can Romeo and Juliet
But right now, me and the boys got some business to attend to
And we ain't finished yet"

Maybe they're right when they tell me
That my head is in an uproar
Maybe they're right when they tell me
That my body's in a whirl
Maybe they're right when they tell me
That my heart is undecided
Maybe they're right when they tell me
That it's a man's world, but it's a boystown
Boystown
Boystown
It's a boystown

Boystown

Somewhere deep down in the belly of the asphalt jungle
Underneath the overpass
Some boy is making romantic history tonight
Puts a blanket on the broken glass
His momma's got a million dollars
Little sister's got a full length mink stole
Daddy comes home every night with a little lipstick on his collar
All he's got is you, little darlin'
You and rock and roll

Maybe they're right when they tell me
That my head is in an uproar
Maybe they're right when they tell me
That my body's in a whirl
Maybe they're right when they tell me
That my heart is undecided
Maybe they're right when they tell me
That it's a man's world, but it's a boystown
Boystown
Boystown
Boystown
Boystown
Boystown

It's a
Boystown
Boystown
Boystown
It's a
Boystown

Boystown
Boystown
Boystown
