If I Were a Boy - Giada

If I were a boy

Even just for a day

I’d roll out of 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 wanted, and I’d never get confronted for it

Cause they’d stick up for me

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 you were a boy

Then, girl, you’d understand

You need to stop listenin' to your friends

Love, respect, and trust your man

So I go to clubs with the guys

And sometimes flirt with the girls

I should be able to roll out, as long as I’m comin' home to you

And give you the world

But you’re not a boy

So you don’t have a clue

How I work and pay the bills

How everything I do is for you

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 (If I were a girl)

I would turn off my phone (I wouldn’t play games)

Tell everyone it’s broken

So they’d think that I was sleeping alone (Girl you know that’s wrong)

I’d put myself first

And make the rules as I go

'Cause I know that she’d be faithful

Waiting for me to come home, to come home

But you’re not a boy

So you can’t understand

You are not a perfect woman

And I am not a perfect man

I’d listen to her

'Cause I know how it hurts (And I know how you feel)

When you lose the one you wanted

'Cause he’s taken you for granted

And everything you had got destroyed (Said I’m sorry)

It’s a little too late for you to come back

But I can’t let you go, 'cause I’m too attached

If you thought I would wait for you

You thought wrong

But you’re just a boy…
