Book Of Love, "Boy"

Rocky Road

From Classic Rock to Progessive to hip hop to today's hot new tunes!

Ah, woodshop. 40 years ago, we were in junior high. Because of insurance, woodshops shut down shortly thereafter. Nowadays, if you want woodshop, you have to go to a trade school or junior college.

But 40 years ago, while we were in woodshop, Book Of Love's "Boy" was earth-shattering . First of all, girls weren't supposed to enjoy woodshop. They were supposed to like homemaking instead. But Book Of Love's "Boy" was about a girl lamenting that the boys she liked were gay. In a way, that song made it okay, for girls to like, among other things, woodshop.

"It's not my fault
That I'm not a boy
It's not my fault
I don't have those toys"

"I stay at home at night
And I play with my toys"
