The Boy Who Stayed Inside Video (MV)

The kids are at the door, and they ask him to come along
He says maybe, but he doesn't know how to play beer pong
He likes to sit inside, exercise his pride, and try to feel like a man
And because of this, he's never had a kiss; only the touch of his hand

The boy who stayed inside cried alone but not through his eyes
The boy who stayed inside thinks that he can fix the world without compromise
The boy who stayed inside has seen his favorite movie 54 times
The boy who stayed inside knows that everything eventually dies

A vacant house yields a lot of play time for him and his friends
Not the real ones, no, I'm talking about imaginary Ken
He has no money, no honey, and no job
He's disappointed, he's not double-jointed, and his name is Dick

The boy who stayed inside caused a blanket to crack in half
The boy who stayed inside once molested his sister's stuffed giraffe
The boy who stayed inside never really did apologize
The boy who stayed inside knows that everything eventually dies

He once tried on his mother's clothes as a dare to himself
But then he realized this looks bad to the elf on the shelf
Oh, elf on the shelf
Why must you make us feel like s***

The boy who stayed inside kept his area nice and clean
The boy who stayed inside never meant to come off as mean
The boy who stayed inside was told to never leave the house
The boy who stayed inside never got to see down his neighbor's blouse
The boy who stayed inside never found out that his parents lied
The boy who stayed inside stayed inside until the day he died
