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 and 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 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 taking you for granted
And everything you had got destroyed
(r. kelly)
If you were a boy
Then girl you'd understand
You need to stop listening 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 coming home to you
And give you the world
But you are not a boy
So you don't have a clue (ey)
How I work and pay the bills
Girl and everything I do is for you (eh eh)
(beyonce)
I'd listen to her
Cause I know how it hurts
When you lose the one you wanted
Cause he's taking you for granted
And everything you had got destroyed
If I were a boy (beyonce)
If I were a girl (kelly)
I would turn off my phone (beyonce)
I wouldn't play games (kelly)
Tell everyone it's broken
So they'd think that I was sleeping alone (beyonce)
Girl you know thats wrong (kelly)
I'd put myself first
And make the rules as I go
Cause I know that she'll be faithful
Waiting for me to come home, to come home
But you are not a boy
So you can't understand
You are not a perfect woman
And I am not a perfect man (remix, remix)
I'd listen to her (eh eh)
Cause I know how it hurts
(kelly: and I know how you feel)
When you lose the one you wanted
Cause he's taking you for granted
And everything you had got destroyed
Kelly: 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 (kelly)
If you thought I would wait for you
You thought wrong
But you're just a boy
