Beyonce - If I Were A Boy You Oughta Know Live Lyrics

[Verse 1]
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, ha
And I'd never get confronted for it
'Cause they’d stick up for me
Sing

[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 you've taken her for granted
And everything you had got destroyed

[Verse 2]
If I were a boy
I would turn off my phone
Tell everyone it's broken
So they'd think that I was sleepin’ alone (Yeah, right)
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
To come home
To come home
[Bridge]
It's a little too late for you to come back
Say, it's just a mistake, think I’d forgive you like that
If you thought I would wait for you
You thought wrong

[Interlude]
I want you to know that I'm happy for you
And I want nothing but the best for you both
Another version of me, Mr. Duplicity
I hate to bug you in the middle of dinner
It was a slap in the face how quickly I was replaced
Baby, were you thinking of me when you—, sing
'Cause the love that you gave that we made
Wasn't able to make it enough for you to be open wide, no
And every time you speak her name
Does she know how you told me
You'd hold me until you died? 'Til you died
But you're still alive
Well, I'm here to remind you
Of the mess you left when you went away, sing
It's not fair to deny me
Of the cross I bear that you gave to me
You, you, you oughta know

[Chorus]
But you're just a boy
You don't understand
Until you lose the one you wanted
'Cause you've taken her for granted
And everything you love got destroyed
[Outro]
But you're just a boy
