If I were a boy even just for a day

Id roll out of bed in the morning

And throw on what I wanted

And go drink beer with the guys

And chase after girls

Id kick it with who I wanted

And Id 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 Id be a better man

Id listen to her

Cause I know how it hurts

When you lose the one you wanted

Cause hes taking you for granted

And everything you had got destroyed

If I were a boy

I would turn off my phone

Tell everyone its broken

So theyd think that I was sleeping alone

Id put myself first

And make the rules as I go

Cause I know that shed be faithful

Waiting for me to come home, to come home

If I were a boy

I think I could understand

How it feels to love a girl

I swear Id be a better man

Id listen to her

Cause I know how it hurts

When you lose the one you wanted

Cause hes taking you for granted

And everything you had got destroyed

Its a little too late for you to come back

Say its just a mistake

Think Id forgive you like that

If you thought I would wait for you

You thought wrong

But youre just a boy

You dont understand

And you dont understand, oh

How it feels to love a girl

Someday you wish you were a better man

You dont listen to her

You dont care how it hurts

Until you lose the one you wanted

Cause youre taking her for granted

And everything you had got destroyed

But youre just a boy
