Man's World

Man's World
Cheeks are rosy like a Boucher cherub
I'm a strawberry soda
Raise my lashes to heaven
Stars in my hair running like a waterfall
Clouds in the whites of our eyes, we saw it all
Burnt me at the stake, you thought I was a witch
Centuries ago, now you just call me a bitch

Mother nature's dying
Nobody's keeping score
I don't wanna live in a man's world anymore
I don't wanna live in a man's world anymore
Anymore
Marilyn's bungalow it's number seven
In the pink palace where men made her legend
Owned by a sheik who killed thousands of gay men
I guess that's why he bought the Campest Hotel in LA then
Mother nature's dying
Nobody's keeping score
I don't wanna live in a man's world anymore
I don't wanna live in a man's world anymore
If you have a mother, daughter or a friend
Maybe it is time, time you comprehend
The world that you live in
Ain't the same one as them
So don't punish me for not being a man
Spring appears when the time is right
Women are violets coming to light
Don't underestimate the making of life
The planet has a funny way of stopping a fight

Mother nature's dying
Nobody's keeping score
I don't wanna live in a man's world anymore
I don't wanna live in a man's world anymore
If you have a mother, daughter or a friend
Maybe it is time, time you comprehend
The world that you live in
Ain't the same one as them
So don't punish me 'cause I'm not a man
So don't punish me 'cause I'm not a man
'Cause I'm not a man

Las letras pintan un retrato vívido con metáforas como mejillas sonrosadas como un querubín de Boucher y estrellas en el cabello que fluyen como una cascada...
