JUST A MAN Lyrics

He said 'I want seven kids and they're gonna take my name

But I think I'll keep my job and my life will stay the same

And I'll complain that my wife let herself go and blame her when she cries

Cause she knows I've done fuck all

To help her when I'm home and the kids are going crazy

She says she needs a rest but I just think she's being lazy

She went into the shower and the newborn baby screamed

I dropped him in there with her and went back to the TV

I pay the bills, I do my thing, I keep us safe but I can't win

Why am I being told that I'm not trying enough?

If I was a woman I know it wouldn't be so tough but I'm

Just a man, I'm just a man

That's all I am, I'm just a man

I wanted family, I wanted that ticked

Off my list before I go and kick the bucket

I love women and I love working

I'm not interested in all this learning

I went out to the bar with the boys again tonight

My wife told me I let her down but I don't really mind

She always gets dramatic says I can't do this again

I've only been out twice this week, I was home by 5am

I put away the dishes and I asked for my reward

She told me she's not feeling great, I told her that I'm bored

My hands get pushed away, she explains that she's just tired

She's been home all day I mean she's practically retired

I cause fights, I come home late

Insult my wife, treat her like my property

But it's okay cause I'm the reason that we're thriving

So I won't change, she won't leave, she knows she won't survive I'm

Just a man, I'm just a man

That's all I am, I'm just a man

What you gonna do about it?

What you gonna do about it?

Nothing, na na nothing'
