if i were a boy

i heard this song over the radio and just like the song of mariah carey (touch my body) i got hooked.. i suddenly remembered one old fave song of mine - the remix of how could an angel break my heart - and shivered at the similarities of the two songs.. (i just realized the themes of the songs that i like.. hmm.. moving on), funny how different men and women think noh.. one thing is for sure both assume.. am i right? think about it! both assume that the other would know what he/she needs and wants. and here lies the dilema.

the fortunate ones were able to find ways to understand and weave this 'man-woman-intricacies'.. the unfortunate ones keep on trying to look for the ones that can weave theirs..

as for me.. hmm.. i get it sometimes and most of the time i dont! i just live each day at a time and well, make mistakes one after the other! and when i listened to this song.. the lines that most trikes me is the line of Lee "I'd listen to him cause I don't know everything" figure it out! ahahaha!


If I WereA Boy Remix Lyrics

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'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 taking you for granted
And everything you had got destroyed
If I were a girl
even just for a day
I'd get out of bed in the morning
and take forever to get ready
Complain to my friends
as if they got a man
They talk about you cause they're jealous
and I just stay and listen to it (I should get rid of them)
If I were a girl
I dont think I'd understand
how it feels to love a boy
I swear I'd be a better woman
I'd listen to him
cause I don't know everything
I would always try to tell him that he needs to treat me better
Like I don't gotta change at all
If I were a girl
It's a little too late for you to come back
Say it's just a mistake, think I'd forgive you like that? (I don't)
If you thought I would wait for you,
you thought wrong (I did wrong)
But you're just a boy
and you're just a girl
You don't understand
No you don't understand
How it feels to love a girl someday
You wish you were a better man
You don't listen to her
and you don't listen to him
You don't care how it hurts (you don't care how I feel)
Until you lose the one you wanted
cause he's taking you for granted
And everything you had got destroyed
But you're just a boy
and you're just a girl
