The Jags - Little Boy Lost lyrics

Little Boy Lost, he sits so high in his chair Wondering where now What now and who will care Now he's out discovering secret pathways to some pirate's hidden treasure Back at home, the heat is on as night falls And the cold outside is biting Right down to his young bones Will he ever come home? There's a little boy lost Call out the army There's a little boy lost Start up the inquiry Appeal to the neighbors you never appealed to before You're dragging your heavy hearts All around town, door to door While out of town, the party's on The search is out, not taking any chances They're beating 'round the bush But if they look, they're all just false romances Why should they bother at all? They never bothered to call for the Little boy lost Call out the army There's a little boy lost Start up the inquiry The boys in blue will work for you They'll bring him back, dead or alive Little Boy Lost is now Little Boy Blue in the lake It's the last place you will look You're hoping that he's still awake They've got their wet suits out Their cheque books out Just start swimming in your tired eyes But when the morning comes They'll find you waking Shivering from the night's lies How could you do this to me? Sit lit on the TV They just keep telling me There's a little boy lost Call out the army There's a little boy lost Start up the inquiry There's a little boy lost Call out the army There's a little boy lost Start up the inquiry
