Lyrics The Wild Boys - The Del Lords

The Wild Boys

I think I could have slept the whole day away
But, when the phone rang at noon
I’d been woken up way too soon
A friend of mine was calling with some bad news
Another person we had known
Had waved his last goodbye and flown
Into the night
We are the wild boys
We are the action
Wild games and wild toys
No satisfaction
Sometimes I feel like death is closing in
I try to make some sense of it
But the pieces, they just never fit
I was there but I wish I could forget
When Little Jeanie breathed her last breath
Another drug related death
We are the wild boys
We are the action
Wild games and wild toys
No satisfaction
Tomorrow I think I’ll stay in bed all day
And shut the sunlight from my room
Maybe then it won’t be true
Just a bad bad dream
We are the wild boys
We are the action
Wild games and wild toys
No satisfaction
