lyrics
Four-letter Boys
By Dawn Boudreau
October 2010
[V. 1]
I didn’t say I wanted forever
I just said you should buy me a drink
Cause I’ve done forever twice
And the start is pretty nice
But to tell the truth
I’ve had my fill
Of four-letter boys
[Chorus]
So talk to me and dance with me
Say things that make me smile
And if you make me laugh out loud
We might do this a while
But you should know, Chad, Matt, Josh, Dave
I’ve never known one to behave
Before you know, you’ll go the way
Of all four-letter boys
[V. 2]
At first I thought we both got the picture
But then you started being a tool
I just like to share your bed
That doesn’t mean we should be wed
The more you talk
The more you prove
You’re a four-letter boy
[Chorus]
So talk to me and dance with me
Say things that make me smile
And if you make me laugh out loud
We might do this a while
But you should know, Chad, Matt, Josh, Dave
I’ve never known one to behave
Before you know, you’ll go the way
Of all four-letter boys
[V. 3]
Don’t pretend you can’t keep my men straight
You know you’re hanging on every word
Just cause you have that fifth letter
Doesn’t make you any better
You’re just a drunken
Slur away
From a four-letter boy
[Chorus]
So talk to me and dance with me
Say things that make me smile
And if you make me laugh out loud
We might do this a while
But you should know, Chad, Matt, Josh, Dave
I’ve never known one to behave
Before you know, you’ll go the way
Of all four-letter boys
[Bridge]
So Kyle, Carl, Greg, Mike and Stan
You should know your not a part of my
Long Term Plan
Don’t dwell on where we might be heading
Just think of all the me your getting
There isn’t gonna be a wedding
Silly, silly boy
[Chorus]
So talk to me and dance with me
Say things that make me smile
And if you make me laugh out loud
We might do this a while
But you should know, Chad, Matt, Josh, Dave
I’ve never known one to behave
Before you know, you’ll go the way
Of all four-letter boys

I used to think I was a jazz musician - but I must confess: I’m a folk musician who writes with a jazzy twist, sometimes
with hints of musical theatre. Having achieved a comfortable state of middle-aged happiness, I love to share stories from the journey I traveled to get here....more
Spiraling, jazzy songs from musician and physician Eki Shola, who began writing songs as a form of healing after the 2017 wildfires. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 4, 2020
