    • Verse 1

    One 
    girl 
    was called 

    Jean 
    Marie 

    Another 
    little 
    girl was 
    called 
    Felicity 

    Another 
    little 
    girl 
    was 
    Sally 
    Joy 

    The 
    other 
    was me, 
    and 
    I'm 
    a boy 

    My 
    name is 
    Bill 
    and I'm 
    a 
    head 
    case 

    I 
    get the 
    licking 
    up on 
    my 
    face 

    Yeah, 
    I feel 
    lucky 
    if I get 
    trousers 
    to 
    wear 

    Spare 
    evenings 
    taking 

    hairpin
    s from 
    my 
    hair 

    I'm 
    a 
    boy, 
    I'm 
    a 
    boy, 

    but my 
    mom 
    won't admit 
    it 

    I'm 
    a boy, 
    I'm 
    a boy, 

    but if I 
    say 
    I 
    am, 
    I 
    get 
    it 

    Put 
    your 
    frock 
    on, 
    Jean 
    Marie 

    Plat 
    your 
    hair, 
    Fe
    licity 

    Paint 
    your 
    nails, 
    Sally 
    Joy 

    Put 
    this 
    wig on, 
    little 
    boy 

    I'm 
    a 
    boy, 
    I'm 
    a boy 

    But my 
    mom 
    won't 
    admit it 

    I'm 
    a 
    boy, 
    I'm 
    a 
    boy 

    But if I 
    say 
    I 
    am, 
    I get 
    it 



    I 
    want 
    to play cricket 
    on 
    the green 

    Ride 
    my bike 
    across 
    the stream 

    Cut 
    myself 
    and 
    see my 
    blood 

    I 
    want 
    to come 
    home 
    all 
    covered 
    in 
    mud 

    I'm 
    a 
    boy 

    I'm 
    a 
    boy 

    but my 
    mom 
    won't 
    admit it. 

    I'm 
    a 
    boy 

    I'm 
    a 
    boy 

    I'm 
    a 
    boy. 
    I'm 
    a 
    boy 

    I'm 
    a boy 

    I'm 
    a 
    boy. 

    I'm 
    a 
    boy, 
    I'm 
    a 
    boy 

    I'm 
    a 
    boy 

    I 
    want 
    to thank you again, 

    it's been great for 
    me 

    And as 
    I said, great to be 

    back. 

    Thank you so much. 

    Bye bye, I love you. 

    Thank 
    you. 

    And 
    now it's request 
    time. 


    Well, 
    it's 
    safe to say 
    that somebody has asked 

    for Magic Bus. 

    You know, 

    you've asked for some really interesting 
    songs 

    that I 
    would 
    love to play, 

    but I don't know whether they would 
    work 

    at the end of the night. 

    People 
    have mentioned stuff 
    like 
    Sun
    rise. 

    You know, 

    a lot of people have 
    asked for Sunrise. 

    I 
    wrote Sunrise for 
    my mother, 

    and it's 
    just about as 

    difficult to play as Pavardigar. 

    It's one 
    of those incredibly complicated... 

    Let 
    me tell 
    you about sunrise. 

    Okay, 
    try 
    and 
    get into my reality 
    here. 
    I 

    Wrote 
    this song for my 
    mother 

    I played 
    it to her and 

    you know what she said 

    That's 
    very nice, 
    dear 

    And 
    as it says at the 
    end 

    of the Tommy 
    theater production 


    which doubtless you've 
    all seen 

    You've all 
    got families, 

    you know 
    what it's like, 
    you know.

      Best Tuning App Ever

      MaddProfessor

      "

      I’ve downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.

      Well-Designed App

      I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.

      Got me back into playing

      Tuliketsune

      "

      I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂

      Not only is it a tuner (best app tuner I've used personally) but it also has a metronome, games, chords, and a plethora of instruments to choose from and it's SUPER easy to navigate. I love it! Thanks for making an awesome app. From one musician to another, THANKS!!!

      This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.
