If I were a boy even just for a day |
|
I'd roll out of bed in the morning |
|
And throw on what I wanted |
|
And go drink beer with the guys |
|
|
|
And chase after girls |
|
I'd kick it with who I wanted |
|
And I'd never get confronted for it |
|
'Cause they stick up for me |
|
|
|
If I were a boy |
|
I think I could understand |
|
How it feels to love a girl |
|
I swear I'd be a better man |
|
|
|
I'd listen to her |
|
'Cause I know how it hurts |
|
When you lose the one you wanted |
|
'Cause he's taking you for granted |
|
|
|
And everything you had got destroyed |
|
If I were a boy |
|
I would turn off my phone |
|
Tell everyone it's broken |
|
|
|
So they'd think that I was sleeping alone |
|
I'd put myself first |
|
And make the rules as I go |
|
'Cause I know that she'd be faithful |
|
|
|
Waiting for me to come home, to come home |
|
If I were a boy |
|
I think I could understand |
|
How it feels to love a girl |
|
|
|
I swear I'd be a better man |
|
I'd listen to her |
|
'Cause I know how it hurts |
|
When you lose the one you wanted |
|
' |
|
Cause he's taking you for granted |
|
And everything you had got destroyed |
|
It's a little too late for you to come back |
|
Say it's just a mistake |
|
|
|
Think I'd forgive you like that |
|
If you thought I would wait for you |
|
You thought wrong |
|
But you're just a boy |
|
|
|
You don't understand |
|
And you don't understand, oh |
|
How it feels to love a girl |
|
Someday you wish you were a better man |
|
|
|
You don't listen to her |
|
You don't care how it hurts |
|
Until you lose the one you wanted |
|
'Cause you're taking her for granted |
|
And everything you had got destroyed |
|
But you're just a boy |
