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 taken you for granted    And everything you had got destroyed       If I were a boy, I would turn off my phone    Tell everyone it's broken so they think that I was sleeping alone    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       If I were a boy    I think I could understand, oh-oh-oohh-oh    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       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 got it wrong       But you're just a boy    And you don't understand (yea, you don't understand, oh!)    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    Because you've taken her for granted    And everything you had got destroyed       But you're just a boy
