Man's World

How'd you know I wanted more?
Brown girls never blush, I must have let it pour
Regret that I let you abandon my curfew
Pathetic with the fallacy
Fantasizing what the storm would do to me
Tornado hit the bedroom
The feelings start to come through
Catchin' what I should have left far behind
Stereotype that I thought I could fight
He's feeding me words I know I want to hear
And although they get tasty you should disappear
Man's world
No time for fuckin' with the man's world

Ain't got no lover
Ain't got no time
Ain't got no mister to tell me what when and why
Ain't got no lover, no
Ain't got no time
Don't need no mister to tell me what when and why
I find my love in red wine
No chaser
I get by with my liquor and my paper
Red wine
No chaser
I get by with my liquor and my paper

Candy Crush and Novacane
I'm guessin' that the purple didn't need the rain
Regret that I let you soak in my perfume
I'm hopin' that it's just a phase
And soon enough we'll turn back to our salad days
Tornado hit the bedroom
And now I can't see myself
Catchin' what I should have left far behind
Same old cliché that I thought I could fight
He's feedin' me words I do not want to hear
And although they mean well you should just disappear
Man's world
No time for fuckin' with the man's world

Ain't got no lover
Ain't got no time
Ain't got no mister to tell me what when and why
Ain't got no lover, no
Ain't got no time
Don't need no mister to tell me what when and why
I find my love in red wine
No chaser
I get by with my liquor and my paper
Red wine
No chaser
I get by with my liquor and my paper

Ain't got no lover
Ain't got no time
Ain't got no mister to tell me what when and why
Ain't got no lover, no
Ain't got no time
Don't need no mister to tell me what when and why

But are you willing to compromise within a relationship?
Compromise? Compromising for what? To compromise for what?
If a man came into your life, would you be able to compromise?
Ahah-ha ha ahaha, a man comes into my life and I have to compromise? Stupid
