You Didn't Have To

Thank you boy for the beautiful flower

Thank you boy for the stars in your eyes

Thank you boy for giving me your finest hours

What a surprise?



You didn't have to



Thank you boy for the time that we wasted

Thank you boy for the things that you said

Thank you boy for every strange thought that I tasted

You're off your head



You didn't have to



And hearing my story from your occupied territory



Thank you boy for the sound of your voices

Like a hammer or a drill

Thank you boy for giving me no choices

You know I will



You didn't have to
