Inspired by a recent relationship and by the structure of the song "Just a Girl, She Said" by Dubstar, this is a song I've just written...
"Just a Man, She Said"
It's okay, he's just a man, she said There's nothing going on in his head It's his job to be played If he doesn't then he won't get paid
It's initially shocking to find he has feelings And that he is hurt by your merciless dealings But this soon gives you more to laugh at with friends While you guzzle wine and dish dirt
Tell him to jump and he'll ask how high? Then when he does it, let out a sigh Dump him for being weak When he gives the reaction you seek
An exponent of love he'd fit you like a glove But when he gets close you would rather just shove You don't really have any room in your life But you've got some wrath to assert
It's okay, he's just a man, she said So thick-skinned treat him like he's dead Always kept at arms length Lest his love compromises your strength
So you punish him for imaginary sins Because you believe he won't feel anything Cos he's just a man so he isn't allowed To think or to feel or to hurt

"Just a Man, She Said"
It's okay, he's just a man, she said
There's nothing going on in his head
It's his job to be played
If he doesn't then he won't get paid
It's initially shocking to find he has feelings
And that he is hurt by your merciless dealings
But this soon gives you more to laugh at with friends
While you guzzle wine and dish dirt
Tell him to jump and he'll ask how high?
Then when he does it, let out a sigh
Dump him for being weak
When he gives the reaction you seek
An exponent of love he'd fit you like a glove
But when he gets close you would rather just shove
You don't really have any room in your life
But you've got some wrath to assert
It's okay, he's just a man, she said
So thick-skinned treat him like he's dead
Always kept at arms length
Lest his love compromises your strength
So you punish him for imaginary sins
Because you believe he won't feel anything
Cos he's just a man so he isn't allowed
To think or to feel or to hurt
Just a man, she said... just a man, she said...
