If I were a boy even just for a day br I'd roll out of bed in the morning br And throw on what I wanted br And go drink beer with the guys br br And chase after girls br I'd kick it with who I wanted br And I'd never get confronted for it br 'Cause they stick up for me br br If I were a boy br I think I could understand br How it feels to love a girl br I swear I'd be a better man br br I'd listen to her br 'Cause I know how it hurts br When you lose the one you wanted br 'Cause he's taking you for granted br And everything you had got destroyed br br If I were a boy br I would turn off my phone br Tell everyone it's broken br So they'd think that I was sleeping alone br br I'd put myself first br And make the rules as I go br 'Cause I know that she'd be faithful br Waiting for me to come home, to come home br br If I were a boy br I think I could understand br How it feels to love a girl br I swear I'd be a better man
