Would you still love me if I was a poor boy?
and all I had to give you was me?
Would you still open up all your doors for me?
Would you treat me differently?

Would you still fuck me if I was a poor boy?
Give me what I want so easily?
When the show is over will I still be your boy?
Yeah, will you tell your friends about me?

Cos everybody's coming round, coming round
head up in the clouds
Saying I can't live without them
who can I, who can I trust?
I’m just trying to not get burned

Maybe that’s the reason why I’m cold baby
Yeah I’m just trying to save my soul baby
and when the rain comes down
will you stand there and watch me drown?
If I was a poor boy
maybe that's the reason why I'm cold
maybe that's the reason why I'm cold
maybe that's the reason why I'm cold

Would you still love me if I was a poor boy?
pledge all your allegiances to me?
Would you still wanna own the keys to my heart?
Give all your attention to me?
Cos everybody's coming round, coming round
head up in the clouds
telling me I can't live without them
Who can I, who can I, who can I trust?
I'm just trying to not get burned

Maybe that’s the reason why I’m cold baby
Yeah I’m just trying to save my soul baby
and when the rain comes down
will you stand there and watch me drown?
If I was a poor boy
maybe that's the reason why I'm cold
maybe that's the reason why I'm cold
maybe that's the reason why I'm cold

cos all my life I've been a poor boy
You’ve only scratched the surface of me
and in the end, I’ll always be a poor boy
cos nothing in this life comes for free
maybe that's the reason why I’m cold
maybe that's the reason why I’m cold
maybe that's the reason why I’m cold
