"The Boys Are Back in Town" is a single from Irish hard rock band Thin Lizzy. The song was originally released in 1976 on their album ''Jailbreak''. == Plot == The lyrics follow a group of wild-eyed boys who have just returned to town〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://genius.com/1793390 )〕 after having been away from town. The song begins with the boys having returned that very day to the place that they once were but hadn't been for some time. Upon returning to titular town, the eponymous boys ask the whereabouts of an unknown figure (possibly the audience) which the narrator designates as 'you'. Soon, the boys discover this 'you' has been busy downtown driving the old men crazy. The old men are an undefined group but are separated distinctly from the boys on account of being old, not boys, and presumably having stayed in town. The narrator's interest then turns to a 'chick' remembered from an old party. This unnamed woman was apparently notable for her dancing. The narrator recounts an incident that occurred at Johnny's place where the woman who loved to dance slapped Johnny in his face, presumably for not appreciating her dancing or perhaps appreciating it too much. These verses seem unrelated to the return of the boys. The next Friday night the boys will be heading down to Dino's Bar and Grill. The narrator is predicting heavy drinking and violence; but, cautions the listener against interfering.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://genius.com/1793365 )〕 The jukebox in the corner of the bar and grill will be playing the favorite song of the narrator. The song ends with the narrator lamenting that the nights are getting warmer and soon summer will return, like the boys themselves have returned.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://genius.com/1793801 )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Boys Are Back in Town」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
