If You Were a Boy
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
If you were a boy, you'd understand
How it feels when she says your best ain't good enough
And you know you're doing all that you can
You'd go to the bar
Drink a few shots of patron
Just so you can deal with a women
Who makes you feel unwanted in your own home
If you were a boy
You would finally see
How it's so frustrated when your women
Tries to change the man she knew you would be
You listen to her
But wonder "does she listen to me?"
Maybe then you'd understand
That a man's much more harder than you belive
If you were a boy
You would know this right away
You could be so unkind if I change my mind
So unforgivin if I make a mistake
Then you find you have to laugh
When the coins flip on its back
She looks in your eyes, with selfish pride.
And says " I'm a girl, I'm allowed to do that "(now ain't that some sh*t?)
If you were a boy
You would finally see
How it's so frustrated when your women
Tries to change the man she knew you would be
You listen to her
But wonder " does she listen to me?"
You were sure that the girl you lived with, ain't always sweet as she believes
I'm the one whose there for you when you're emotionally weak
But only when you're strong, is when the world is allowed to speak
I see all the imperfections, I see all the flaws
When that make up comes off
Whooa, whoa, ohh
If you were a boy
You'd understand, oh yes you would
If you were a boy
