If I Were A Boy

If I were a boy even just for a dayI'd roll out of bed in the morningAnd throw on what I wantedAnd go drink beer with the guys

And chase after girls

I'd kick it with who I wantedAnd I'd never get confronted for itCause they stick up for me

If I were a boyI think I could understandHow it feels to love a girlI swear I'd be a better man

I'd listen to her'Cause I know how it hurtsWhen you lose the one you wanted'Cause he's taking you for grantedAnd everything you had got destroyed

If I were a boyI would turn off my phoneTell everyone it's brokenSo they'd think that I was sleeping alone

I'd put myself firstAnd make the rules as I go'Cause I know that she'd be faithfulWaiting for me to come home, to come home

If I were a boyI think I could understandHow it feels to love a girlI swear I'd be a better man

I'd listen to her'Cause I know how it hurtsWhen you lose the one you wanted'Cause he's taking you for grantedAnd everything you had got destroyed

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 wrong

But you're just a boyYou don't understandAnd you don't understand, ohHow it feels to love a girlSomeday you wish you were a better man

You don't listen to herYou don't care how it hurtsUntil you lose the one you wanted'Cause you're taking her for grantedAnd everything you had got destroyedBut you're just a boy
