Текст песни Music Video - Darren Hayes

1982

Oh, I was a very young ten years old
Tenderoni got to school early to avoid home
I was emerging I was finding myself
A butterfly before the guys

Knew I was different but I wasn't ashamed yet
Oh, Tammy Loewe, you were the only fly girl in school
And I was obsessed with you
With your hair and your beautiful brown eyes

I was gonna direct you in my own music video
I had to get your hair just right
And that's when I felt a slap from behind
The school Principal she said, "Oh, Darren Hayes, you're a little fairy aren't you?
If I catch you playing with the girls again, you'll be in detention
'Cause I know there's a name for boys like you"

There's a place I wanna go (I wanna go)
Inside a music video
Where boys wear makeup and we play guitar
Neon is how I feel, Love is a battlefield

That's the place I wanna live (I wanna live)
Where girls have names like Billie Jean
We dance in front of my VCR
Steal a DeLorean, never look back again

Oh, I
Oh, I

1984

Oh, I was a very young 12 years old
Shy but not lonely not quite a girl, but quite a ways from the guys
Internalizing I was hiding my magic
Sensitive lost in my mind

I knew I was different, but I thought I could change it
Ooh, Stephen Baker, you were the handsome new boy at school
And I was obsessed with you
Your messy hair and those braces and that smile

I fantasized about holding hands
I liked to imagine what a hug would feel like
But that's when I got a letter from Mike
I opened it up it said, "Oh, Darren Hayes you're in love with Stephen, aren't you?
Well, if I catch you watching him in class again, you'll get a broke nose
'Cause, Darren, there's a name for boys like you"

There's a place I wanna go (I wanna go)
Inside a music video
Where boys wear makeup and we play guitar
Neon is how I feel, Love is a battlefield

That's the place I wanna live (I wanna live)
Where girls have names like Billie Jean
We dance in front of my VCR
Steal a DeLorean never look back again

Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh

There's a place I wanna go
Inside a music video
Where boys wear makeup and we play guitar
Neon is how I feel, love is a battlefield

That's the place I wanna live (I wanna live)
Where girls have names like Billie Jean
We dance in front of my VCR
Steal a DeLorean, never look back again

Oh, my
Oh, I
