BEYONCE - “IF I WERE A BOY” LYRICS
If I were a boy
Even just for a day
I’d roll outta bed in the morning
And throw on what I wanted then go
Drink beer with the guys
And chase after girls
I’d kick it with who I wated
And I’d never get confronted for it.
Cause they’d stick up for me.
[Chorus]
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 taken you for granted
And everything you had got destroyed
If I were a boy
I could turn off my phone
Tell evveryone it’s broken
So they’d think that I was sleepin’ alone
I’d put myself first
And make the rules as I go
Cause I know that she’d be faithful
Waitin’ for me to come home (to come home)
(Chorus)
It’s a little too late for you to come back
Say its just a mistake
Think I’d forgive you like that
If you thought I would wait for you
You thought wrong
(Chorus)
But you’re just a boy
You don’t understand
Yeah you don’t understand
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’ve taken her for granted
And everything you have got destroyed
But you’re just a boy

OMG this song is poppin i love it!!!!!!
i absolutly love this song
(:
but there are a few typos.
i like the song… it give off a message that people, especially guys… should respect what we girls feel and what we think.
the song has a good message for all the guys that think girls are just toys: girls are the be respected and taken cared of…
this song gives off a message to all the guys who thinks girls are nothing important: girls are to be respected and treated with care. guys don’t know how hard it is to be girls and to be hurt as a girl
I would usually be more into indie rock these days but I absolutely love this song! That’s the type I of song i cant get enough of, the raw, emotion filled songs with great meaningful lyrics - which i must say are so true!
Beyonce is amazing!
