If I were a boy
even just for a day
Iâd roll outta bed in the morning
and throw on what I wanted then go
drink beer with the guys
and chase after girls
Iâd kick it with who I wanted
and Iâd never get confronted for it
´cause theyâd stick up for me.
If I were a boy
I think I could understand
how it feels to love a girl
I swear Iâd be a better man
Iâd listen to her
´cause I know how it hurts
when you lose the one you wanted
´cause heâs taken you for granted
and everything you had got destroyed
If I were a boy
I could turn off my phone
tell everyone itâs broken
so theyâd think
that I was sleeping alone
Iâd put myself first
and make the rules as I go
´cause I know
that sheâd 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 Iâd be a better man
Iâd listen to her
´cause I know how it hurts
when you lose the one you wanted
´cause heâs taken you for granted
and everything you had got destroyed
Itâs a little too late
for you to come back
say it´s just a mistake
think Iâd forgive you like that
if you thought I would wait for you
you thought wrong.
But youâre just a boy
you donât understand
yeah you donât understand
how it feels
to love a girl someday
you wish you were a better man
you donât listen to her
you donât care how it hurts
until you lose the one you wanted
'cause youâve taken her for granted
and everything you have got destroyed
but youâre just a boy
