Tekst piosenki
Billy couldn't read or write
He never read a book in his life
He looked like shit
Face didn't fit
And only ever went out at night
Billy got invited to parties
He'd always dress to annoy
Billy fancied his chances
And they called him an arrogant boy
Billy had a special trick
He knew what made the punters tick
Freakin' the elite
To a fit of pique
Good old Billy lived by his wits
Billy didn't have a choice
Got buried underneath the noise
He took a deep brеath
Found his voice
And they called him an arrogant boy
Oh, Billy
Oh, Billy
Oh, what havе you done?
Oh, Billy, what have you done?
Well, Billy gonna take on the world
Now he's getting hard to destroy
He gave us strength
And now we're walking
In the path of an arrogant boy
Billy lived his life in the dirt
Didn't really give a squirt
He'd be standing there
Head in the air
Well, Billy, salt of the earth
Billy used to dream all day
How to get there in his own sweet way
He took his time
And then enjoyed
The reputation of an arrogant boy
Oh, an arrogant boy
