Just Like a Man

Just like a man, flexing his muscle and not really usin' it

Just like a fool, making her suffer And stuffing her feelings with cotton wool

Well, forgive him, forgive himJust like a man, carrying a picture but seeing in the negative

Just like a fool, all double standards baby do this but never do that

Well, forgive him, forgive him, forgive himHe makes her fall, face down into the pillow

Climbing the wall, weeping like a weeping willow

Hands her a tissue he's already usedJust like a man, just like a man

Dragging her under for everything he'll never be

Ripping her asunder, said he didn't really love her anyway

Well, forgive him, forgive himJust like a man, thrashing out blindly way out of his depth

Just like a fool, there's no device he won't employ

He even cries like a little boyWell, forgive him, forgive him Forgive him

Just like a man, just like a man

Just like a man, just like a man
