If I Were A Boy

[Verse]

If I were a boyEven just for a dayI'd roll out of bed in morningThrew on what I wanted and goDrink beer with the guysAnd chase after girlsI'd kick it with who I wantedAnd I'd never get confronted for itCause they stick up for me

[Chorus]

If I were a boyI think I could understandHow it feels to love a girlI swear I'd be a better manI'd listen to herCause I know how it hurtsWhen you lose the one you wantedCause he's taken you for grantedAnd everything you had got destroyed

[Verse]

If I were a boyI would turn off my phoneTell everyone it's brokenSo they think I was sleeping aloneI'd put myself firstAnd make the rules as I goCause I know she'd be faithfulWaiting for me to come home

[Chorus]

[Verse]

It's a little too late for you to come backSay it's just a mistakeThink I'd forgive you like thatIf you thought I would wait for youYou thought wrongBut you're just a boyAnd don't understandHow it feels to love a girlSome day would wish were a better manYou don't listen to herYou don't care how it hurtsUntil you lose the one you wantedCause you've taken her for grantedAnd everything you had got destroyed

How can I decide what's rightWhen you're clouding up my mind?I can't win your losing fightAll the time. Nor can I ever own what's mineWhen you're always taking sidesBut you won't take away my pride. No, not this time. Not this time.How did we get here?Well, I used to know you so well.But how did we get here?Well, I think I know.The truth is hiding in your eyesAnd it's hanging on your tongue.Just boiling in my blood.But you think that I can't seeWhat kind of man that you are,If you're a man at all.Well, I will figure this one outOn my own.(I'm screaming, "I love you so.")On my own.(My thoughts you can't decode)How did we get here?Well, I used to know you so well, yeah.But how did we get here?Well, I think I know.Do you see what we've done?We've gone and made such foolsOf ourselves.Do you see what we've done?We've gone and made such foolsOf ourselves.Yeah. Yeah.How did we get here?Well, I used to know you so well, yeah, yeah.How did we get here?Well, I used to know you so well.I think I know.I think I know.There is something I see in you.It might kill me.I want it to be true.
