♪ If I were a boy ♪

♪ Even just for a day ♪

♪ I'd roll outta 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 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'd think that

I was sleepin' alone ♪

♪ I'd put myself first ♪

♪ And make the rules as I go ♪

♪ 'Cause I know that she'd be faithful ♪

♪ If you thought I would wait for you ♪

♪ You thought wrong ♪

- You know, when you act like that,

I don't think you realize

how it makes me look or feel.

- Act like what?

Why are you so jealous?

It's not like I'm sleeping with the guy.

- What?

- What?

(boyfriend scoffs)

- I said, "Yo, how you so jealous?

It ain't like I'm sleeping with the girl."

♪ You don't understand ♪

♪ Yeah, 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 ♪

♪ 'Cause you've taken her for granted ♪

♪ And everything you had got destroyed ♪

♪ But you're just a boy ♪
