I like this sound because it reminds me of the old days and the sound is also very atmospheric. It's my favorite music on this list

# data[].attributes.body
My favourite song is Labour de Paris paloma. I like this song because I like the message for women and girls, behind it. I also like its rhythm. The singer is also a very good artist.

# data[].attributes.body
My favourite song is « if I were a boy » by Beyoncé because she denounce the fact that boys have more freedoms than girls . Through the clip, she made an entire story of the life of a girl who is under constant surveillance of her boyfriend , and at the end, the story change and the boy was under surveillance of his girlfriend and he understood that it was not good.

# data[].attributes.body
I choose the first song : « Boy’s don’t cry » because I like the vibe and lyrics. It speak about stereotypes of boy and not so many song speak about that. I like old songs too so it correspond me.  I like the clip too because we can see who sing a who creat this song and I think it’s important .

# data[].attributes.body
So I chose the first song not because it’s the first one but because it has a real message about the stereotypes about boys. " Boys don’t cry " it’s just like one of the most no sense stereotype about boys for me because a boy is just a human like a girl and like everyone so I thinks they just can cry there is nothing to make them think that they can’t cry. Yes sometimes a boy need to cry to evacuate the emotions or for a familial reason but it’s just normal like everyone need the cry sometimes.

Ciara’s “Like a Boy” is a standout song for several reasons In the clip, Ciara plays both a male and female character, illustrating how behaviors deemed "normal" in a man are condemned in a woman. His acting and energetic dancing make the message even more impactful.

I chose boys, don't cry

because I like rhythm and instruments, and what's more I appreciate old music

like this one. I really like this song and these lyrics.

Among all the songs I chose "King" by Florence and The Machine. I liked the rhythm of this song, it is energetic. In my opinion this song is a little tragic. I also really liked the video because it is quite unusual but very suitable for the meaning and the song in general

# data[].attributes.body
Personally my favorite song is "JUST A GIRL"  by  NoDoubt. Its my favorite song because I like the rhythm of this song but also because I like the way she makes fun of prejudices while offering a strong message for the emancipation of young women.

# data[].attributes.body
I like Girls Just Want to Have Fun by Cyndi Lauper because this song is joyful. It makes you want to dance. It says that girls have the right to have fun. The music is catchy. It puts you in a good mood.

# data[].attributes.body
My favorite song is "Like a boy" by Ciara because for me it's the song with the most beautiful melody. I really like the lyrics and the voice of the singer, Ciara. I also like the subject like the other songs since it is similar because they all talk about the differences between genders but it is for all these reasons I chose it.

# data[].attributes.body
I like Just a Girl because it is strong and fun.

The music is fast, and I like the sound.

The words talk about being a girl and feeling trapped.

It shows how girls are not always free.

The singerâ€™s voice is powerful and full of emotion.

The song makes me feel strong and free.

My favorite song is "Boys Don't Cry" by The Cure because it beautifully captures the stuggle of hiding emotions especially in a society that expects men to be strong. The lyrics are simple yet deeply meaningful expressing regret and unspoken feelings. The upbeat melody contrasts with the sadness of the words making the song even more impactful. The rhythm and energy of the music make it unforgettable.

I like the song 2 because I listened to it before and I liked it. I still like it because the rhythm and the lyrics are very ambient.

Boys don’t cry

My personal favourite song is “ Boys don’t cry”. It’s my favourite cause I quite like the rhythm. But not only, I find the lyrics pretty meaningful, to me we too often forget about the fact that boys  are also living unfair things. They are usually asked to stay strong and don’t show emotions but doing this is bad for both genders. By doing this we forced them to act in a certain way and I think that it is a part of the reason why they are not always respecting women. So I think that letting them express their emotions and be proud of them would help us all. That’s one of the reason why I’m liking this song

I really liked the song « Just a girl » by the group NO DOUBT which tells the story of a girl’s Life and her struggle with very strict parents. I love the girl’s voice and the clip is pretty good

# data[].attributes.body
My favorite song is "Ain’t you mama" cause first of all i like the sound, and her voice is incredible. I also like the subject, it denounces how in some couple, the boy think that he lives with her mother and she is going to do everything. This song can encourage some girls as well to not let them down and speak up.

# data[].attributes.body
I really like « Boys don’t cry » by The Cure because it’s both upbeat and full of emotion. It talks about the struggle to express feelings, especially for a man, and I find that very relatable. What hurt me the most is the contrast between the joyful melody and the lyrics filled with regret. To my mind it’s a song that stands the test of time and still resonates today.

One, two, three

Why are you hanging on so tight

To the rope that I'm hanging from?

Off this island, this was an escape plan (this was an escape plan)

Carefully timed it, so let me go

And dive into the waves below

Who tends the orchards? Who fixes up the gables?

Emotional torture from the head of your high table

Who fetches the water from the rocky mountain spring?

And walk back down again to feel your words and their sharp sting

And I'm getting fucking tired

The capillaries in my eyes are bursting

If our love died, would that be the worst thing?

For somebody I thought was my saviour

You sure make me do a whole lot of labour

The calloused skin on my hands is cracking

If our love ended, would that be a bad thing?

And the silence haunts our bed chamber

You make me do too much labour

You make me do too much labour

Apologies from my tongue, and never yours

Busy lapping from flowing cup and stabbing with your fork

I know you're a smart man (I know you're a smart man), and weaponise

The false incompetence, it's dominance under a guise

If we had a daughter, I'd watch and could not save her

The emotional torture, from the head of your high table

She'd do what you taught her, she'd meet the same cruel fate

So now I've gotta run, so I can undo this mistake

At least I've gotta try

The capillaries in my eyes are bursting

If our love died, would that be the worst thing?

For somebody I thought was my saviour

You sure make me do a whole lot of labour

The calloused skin on my hands is cracking

If our love ends, would that be a bad thing?

And the silence haunts our bed chamber

You make me do too much labour

All day, every day, therapist, mother, maid

Nymph then a virgin, nurse then a servant

Just an appendage, live to attend him

So that he never lifts a finger

24∕7, baby machine

So he can live out his picket fence dreams

It's not an act of love if you make her

You make me do too much labour

All day, every day, therapist, mother, maid

Nymph then virgin, nurse and a servant

Just an appendage, live to attend him

So that he never lifts a finger

24∕7, baby machine

So he can live out his picket fence dreams

It's not an act of love if you make her

You make me do too much labour

The capillaries in my eyes (all day, every day)

Are bursting (therapist, mother, maid)

If our love died (nymph then virgin)

Would that be the worst thing? (Nurse then a servant)

For somebody (just an appendage)

I thought was my saviour (live to attend him)

You sure make me do (so that)

A whole lot of labour (he never lifts a finger)

The calloused skin on my hands (24∕7)

Is cracking (baby machine)

If our love ends (so he can live out)

Would that be a bad thing? (His picket fence dreams)

And the silence (it's not an act of love)

Haunts our bed chamber (if you make her)

You make me do too much labour

I particularly like the song "Girls Just Want to Have Fun" by Cyndi Lauper, because it's a happy, upbeat song about freedom and having fun. It defends the idea that girls have the right to have as much fun as boys. With its dynamic rhythm and catchy chorus, it makes you want to dance and is reminiscent of the 80s.

# data[].attributes.body
I chose "boys don't cry" by The Cure, first of all because I really like the song it self, but not only! The lyrics mean quite a lot to me because I've always felt like boys were not aloud to show their emotions otherwise they would be called weak. Even tho i'm a not a man, I feel like girls talk to each other about their feelings more easily than boys do.I find the lyrics are also pretty interesting.

# data[].attributes.body
My favorite song is "If I Were A Boy" by Beyoncé because the song explores the differences in treatment between men and women. Listening to the lyrics makes you think about gender bias. Although the music is 15 years old, it's still relevant today in terms of gender discrimination. I also like the melody and rhythm of the music.

# data[].attributes.body
If I had to choose a song, Can't Hold Us Down would be one of my favorites. Because it talks about the strength of women and how important it is to speak freely without being judged. The message is very motivating; it tells us we should never let others stop us and that we have the right to be heard. She gives us confidence.

# data[].attributes.body
I particullary like the song "Girls Just Want To Have Fun", especially for it lively rythm.

But there is also a message behind, Cindi Lauper ask girls to enjoy their life, in a context where they stayed at home and did householdchores. Parents once decided the life of their daughter, this is so an encouragement for girls to be independant and do themselves their choices. This song came out in 1983, a period where the destin of young women was already written; so I think that the Cindi's feminist message was a real pioneer.

# data[].attributes.body
My favorite song is "It's a man's man's man's world" because this is a very good song to translate to people a message about the racism, and the lyrics are not really bad. This music is a good way for the population to understand the past of the Black population and what they suffered.

# data[].attributes.body
I choose "Just a Girl" because its a great song, it talk about how society can limit people. The music has a lot of energy, and the rhythm is fun. Gwen Stefani voice is powerful, and the band play really well together.

# data[].attributes.body
my favorite song is It's a Man's Man's Man's World by James Brown because he It shows that men are nothing without women and I find it interesting that a man sings a song like this.

I really like the lyrics and I like the music

# data[].attributes.body
I choose « Boys don’t cry » because I really like this song and the lyrics use a topic unusual. We often talk about women being victims of gender’s stereotypes, but men are also in this situation, as we see in this song. Authors highlight the fact that if a man is crying, he’s weak. He can’t show his emotions or feelings because he’s judge as being « like a girl ».

# data[].attributes.body
My favorite song is “Just A Girl”. I love this song because its melody is beautiful and its lyrics touch me. It makes me feel good and the rhythm is amazing. The song reminds me my childhood because I was used to hear it

My favorite song is “If I Were A Boy” because Beyoncé criticizes men for their behavior in relationships. She talks about the lack of consideration, infidelity, lack of respect and selfishness of men in relationships. Through this song, Beyoncé highlights a reality experienced by many women: unhealthy relationships where they give more than they receive.

SONG  11        Ava MAX Kings and Queens

# data[].attributes.body
If all of the kings had their queens on the throne
We would pop champagne and raise a toast
To all of the queens who are fighting alone
Baby, you're not dancin' on your own

Can't live without me, you wanna, but you can't, no, no, no
Think it's funny, but honey, can't run this show on your own
I can feel my body shake, there's only so much I can take
I'll show you how a real queen behaves, oh

No damsel in distress, don't need to save me
Once I start breathin' fire, you can't tame me
And you might think I'm weak without a sword
But if I had one, it'd be bigger than yours

If all of the kings had their queens on the throne
We would pop champagne and raise a toast
To all of the queens who are fighting alone
Baby, you're not dancin' on your own

Disobey me, then baby, it's off with your head
Gonna change it and make it a world you won't forget, oh-oh, oh
No damsel in distress, don't need to save me
Once I start breathin' fire, you can't tame me
And you might think I'm weak without a sword
But I'm stronger than I ever was before

If all of the kings had their queens on the throne
We would pop champagne and raise a toast
To all of the queens who are fighting alone
Baby, you're not dancin' on your own

In chess, the king can move one space at a time
But queens are free to go wherever they like
You get too close, you'll get a royalty high
So breathe it in to feel alive (alive)

If all of the kings had their queens on the throne
We would pop champagne and raise a toast
To all of the queens who are fighting alone
Baby, you're not dancin' on your own

"King"

We argue in the kitchen about whether to have children
About the world ending and the scale of my ambition
And how much is art really worth?
The very thing you're best at
Is the thing that hurts the most
But you need your rotten heart
Your dazzling pain like diamond rings
You need to go to war to find material to sing

I am no mother
I am no bride
I am king

I need my golden crown of sorrow
My bloody sword to swing
My empty halls to echo with grand self-mythology

I am no mother
I am no bride
I am king

I am no mother
I am no bride
I am king

But a woman is a changeling
Always shifting shape
Just when you think you have it figured out
Something new begins to take
What strange claws are these
Scratching at my skin?
I never knew my killer would be coming from within

I am no mother
I am no bride
I am king

I am no mother
I am no bride
I am king

I need my golden crown of sorrow
My bloody sword to swing
I need my empty halls to echo with grand self-mythology

'Cause I am no mother
I am no bride
I am king

I am no mother
I am no bride
I am king

I am no mother
I am no bride
I am king

I am no mother
I am no bride
I am king

Oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-ooh
Oh-oh-oh-oh

And I was never as good
As I always thought I was
But I knew how to dress it up
I was never satisfied, it never let me go
Just dragged me by my hair
And back on with the show

# data[].attributes.body
So, what, am I not supposed to have an opinion?
Should I keep quiet just because I'm a woman?
Call me a bitch 'cause I speak what's on my mind
Guess it's easier for you to swallow if I sat and smiled
When a female fires back
Suddenly big talker don't know how to act
So he does what any little boy would do
Makin' up a few false rumors or two
That for sure is not a man to me
Slanderin' names for popularity
It's sad you only get your fame through controversy (so, so sad)
But now it's time for me to come and give you more to say

This is for my girls all around the world (around the world)
Who have come across a man that don't respect your worth (woah)
Thinkin' all women should be seen not heard (woah)
So what do we do, girls? Shout louder
Lettin' 'em know we're gonna stand our ground (stand our ground)
So lift your hands higher and wave 'em proud (woah)
Take a deep breath and say it loud (woah)
Never can, never will, can't hold us down (woah)

Nobody can hold us down (hold us down)
Nobody can hold us down (hold us down)
Nobody can hold us down (hold us down)
Never can, never will

So, what, am I not supposed to say what I'm sayin'?
Are you offended with the message I'm bringin'?
Call me whatever 'cause your words don't mean a thing
'Cause you ain't even a man enough to handle what I sing
If you look back in history
It's a common double standard of society
The guy gets all the glory, the more he can score
While the girl can do the same and yet you call her a whore
I don't understand why it's okay
The guy can get away with it, the girl gets named
All my ladies come together and make a change
And start a new beginnin' for us, everybody sing

This is for my girls all around the world ('round the world) (yeah)
Who have come across a man that don't respect your worth (respect your worth)
Thinkin' all women should be seen not heard (you can't get rid of us)
So what do we do, girls? Shout louder
Lettin' 'em know we're gonna stand our ground (we standin' our ground on this one)
So lift your hands higher and wave 'em proud (woah)
Take a deep breath and say it loud
Never can, never will, can't hold us down (check it)

Here's somethin' I just can't understand
If a guy have three girls then he's the man
He can even give her some head and sex her raw
If a girl do the same, then she's a whore
But the table's 'bout to turn, I'll bet my fame on it
Cats take my ideas and put they name on it
It's aight though, you can't hold me down (oh no)
I got to keep on movin'
To all my girls with a man who be tryna mack
Do it right back to him and let that be that
You need to let him know that his game is whack
And Lil' Kim and Christina Aguilera got your back

You're just a little boy
You think you're so cute, so coy
You must talk so big
To make up for smaller things
Said you're just a little boy
All you do is annoy
You must talk so big
To make up for smaller things
This is for my girls, oh

This is for my girls all around the world
Who have come across a man that don't respect your worth (respect your worth, oh)

What it feels like for a girl

[Verse 1: Madonna]

Silky smooth

Lips as sweet as candy, baby

Tight blue jeans

Skin that shows in patches

[Pre-Chorus: Madonna]

Strong inside, but you don't know it

Good little girls, they never show it

When you open up your mouth to speak

Could you be a little weak?

[Chorus: Madonna]

Do you know what it feels like for a girl?

Do you know what it feels like in this world

For a girl?

[Verse 2: Madonna]

Hair that twirls on finger tips so gently, baby

Hands that rest on jutting hips, repenting

Hurt that's not supposed to show

And tears that fall when no one knows

When you're trying hard to be your best

Could you be a little less?

[Chorus: Madonna]

Do you know what it feels like for a girl?

Do you know what it feels like in this world

For a girl?

[Pre-Chorus: Madonna]

Strong inside, but you don't know it

Good little girls, they never show it

When you open up your mouth to speak

Could you be a little weak?

[Chorus: Madonna]

Do you know what it feels like for a girl?

Do you know what it feels like in this world

For a girl?

[Outro: Madonna]

In this world

Do you know

Do you know

Do you know what it feels like for a girl?

What it feels like in this world?

VIDEO by Indie ARI

Sometimes I shave my legs and sometimes I don't

Sometimes I comb my hair and sometimes I won't

Depend on how the wind blows I might even paint my toes

It really just depends on whatever feels good in my soul

I'm not the average girl from your video

And I ain't built like a supermodel

But, I learned to love myself unconditionally

Because I am a queen

I'm not the average girl from your video

My worth is not determined by the price of my clothes

No matter what I'm wearing I will always be India Arie

When I look in the mirror the only one there is me

Every freckle on my face is where it's supposed to be

And I know our creator didn't make no mistakes on me

My feet, my thighs, my lips, my eyes I'm lovin' what I see

I'm not the average girl from your video

And I ain't built like a supermodel

But, I learned to love myself unconditionally

Because I am a queen

I'm not the average girl from your video

My worth is not determined by the price of my clothes

No matter what I'm wearing I will always be India Arie

Am I less of a lady if I don't wear pantyhose?

My mama said a lady ain't what she wears but, what she knows

But, I've drawn a conclusion, it's all an illusion confusion's the name of the game

A misconception, a vast deception

Something's gotta change

Don't be offended this is all my opinion

Ain't nothing that I'm sayin' law

This is a true confession of a life learned lesson I was sent here to share with y'all

So get in where you fit in go on and shine

Free your mind, now's the time

Put your salt on the shelf

Go on and love yourself

'Cause everything's gonna be all right

I'm not the average girl from your video

And I ain't built like a supermodel

But, I learned to love myself unconditionally

Because I am a queen

I'm not the average girl from your video

My worth is not determined by the price of my clothes

No matter what I'm wearing I will always be India Arie

Keep your fancy drinks and your expensive minks

I don't need that to have a good time

Keep your expensive car and your Caviar

All I need is my guitar

Keep your crisp style and your pistol

I'd rather have a pretty piece of Crystal

Don't need your silicone, I prefer my own

What God gave me is just fine

I'm not the average girl from your video

And I ain't built like a supermodel

But, I learned to love myself unconditionally

Because I am a queen

I'm not the average girl from your video

My worth is not determined by the price of my clothes

No matter what I'm wearing I will always be India Arie

IF I WERE A BOY by BEYONCE

If I were a boy

Even just for a day

I'd roll outta bed in the morning

And throw on what I wanted then 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.

(Refrain)

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'll 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

Waitin' for me to come home (to come home)

(Chorus)

It's a little too late for you to come back

Say its just a mistake

Think I'd forgive you like that

If you thought I would wait for you

You thought wrong

(Chorus)

But you're just a boy

You don't understand

Yeah you don't understand

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 have got destroyed

But you're just a boy

LIKE A BOY  BY Ciara

C-I-A-R-A

Pull up your pants (Just Like Em')

Take out the trash (Just Like Em')

Getting ya cash like em'

Fast like em'

Girl you outta act like ya dig

(What I'm talkin' bout')

Security codes on everything

On vibrate so your phone don't ever ring

(Joint Account)

And another one he don't know about

Wish we could switch up the roles

And I could be that

Tell you I love you

But when you call I never get back

Would you ask them questions like me?

Like where you be at?

Cause I'm out 4 in the morning

On the corner rolling

Doing my own thing

Oh

What if I

Had a thing on the side

Made ya cry?

Would the rules change up

Or would they still apply?

If I played you like a toy?

Sometimes I wish I could act like a boy

Can't be getting mad!

What you mad?

Girl go head and be (Just Like Em')

Go run the streets (Just Like Em')

Come home late say sleep like em'

Creep like em'

Front with ya friends

Act hard when you're with em' like em' (What)

Keep a straight face when ya tell a lie

Always keep an air-tight alibi

(Keep Him In The Dark)

What he don't know won't break his heart

Wish we could switch up the roles

And I could be that

Tell you I love you

But when you call I never get back

Would you ask them questions like me?

Like where you be at?

Cause I'm out 4 in the morning

On the corner rolling

Doing my own thing

Oh

What if I

Had a thing on the side

Made ya cry?

Would the rules change up

Or would they still apply?

If I played you like a toy?

Sometimes I wish I could act like a boy

Can't be getting mad!

What you mad?

Can't handle that!

If I was always gone

With the sun getting home

(Would Ya Like That?)

Told you I was with my crew

When I knew it wasn't true

(Would Ya Like That?)

If I act like you

Walk A mile off in yo shoes

(Would Ya Like That?)

I'm messing with your head again

Dose of your own medicine

What if I

Had a thing on the side

Made ya cry?

Would the rules change up

Or would they still apply?

If I played you like a toy?

Sometimes I wish I could act like a boy

Can't be getting mad!

What you mad?

Can't handle that!

Can't handle that!

Can't be getting mad!

If I played you

Would yo like that?

Had friends

Would you like that?

Never call?

Would you like that?

Hell naw

You wouldn't like that

No!

What if I Had a thing on the side

Made ya cry?

Would the rules change up

Or would they still apply?

If I played you like a toy?

Sometimes I wish I could act like a boy

Woman is the nigger of the world

Yes she is... think about it

Woman is the nigger of the world

Think about it... do something about it

We make her paint her face and dance

If she won't be a slave, we say that she don't love us

If she's real, we say she's trying to be a man

While putting her down we pretend that she's above us

Woman is the nigger of the world.. yes she is

If you don't believe me, take a look at the one you're with

Woman is the slave of the slaves

Ah, yeh... better scream about it

We make her bear and raise our children

And then we leave her flat for being a fat old mother hen

We tell her home is the only place she should be

Then we complain that she's too unworldly to be our friend

Woman is the nigger of the world... yes she is

If you don't believe me, take a look at the one you're with

Woman is the slave to the slaves

Yeh (think about it)

We insult her every day on TV

And wonder why she has no guts or confidence

When she's young, we kill her will to be free

While telling her not to be so smart

We put her down for being so dumb

Woman is the nigger of the world

Yes she is...

If you don't believe me, take a look at the one you're with

Woman is the slave to the slaves

Yes, she is...

If you believe me, you better scream about it

We make her paint her face and dance

We make her paint her face and dance

We make her paint her face and dance...

Just A Girl"    NO DOUBT

Take this pink ribbon off my eyes

I'm exposed and it's no big surprise

Don't you think I know exactly where I stand

This world is forcing me to hold your hand

'Cause I'm just a girl, a little 'ol me

Well don't let me out of your sight

Oh I'm just a girl, all pretty and petite

So don't let me have any rights

Oh...I've had it up to here!

The moment that I step outside

So many reasons for me to run and hide

I can't do the little things I hold so dear

'Cause it's all those little things that I fear

'Cause I'm just a girl I'd rather not be

'Cause they won't let me drive late at night

Oh I'm just a girl, guess I'm some kind of freak

'Cause they all sit and stare with their eyes

Oh I'm just a girl, take a good look at me

Just your typical prototype

Oh...I've had it up to here!

Oh...am I making myself clear?

I'm just a girl

I'm just a girl in the world...

That's all that you'll let me be!

I'm just a girl, living in captivity

Your rule of thumb makes me worry some

I'm just a girl, what's my destiny?

What I've succumbed to is making me numb

Oh I'm just a girl, my apologies

What I've become is so burdensome

Oh I'm just a girl, lucky me

Twiddle-dum there's no comparison

Oh...I've had it up to!

Oh...I've had it up to!

Oh...I've had it up to here!

[Chorus]

This is a man's world

This is a man's world

But it wouldn't be nothing

Nothing without a woman or a girl

[Verse 1]

You see man made the cars

To take us over the road

Man made the train

To carry the heavy load

Man made the electric light

To take us out of the dark

Man made the boat for the water

Like Noah made the ark

[Chorus]

This is a man's world

This is a man's world

But it wouldn't be nothing

Nothing without a woman or a girl

[Verse 2]

Man think about a little bit of baby girls

And a baby boys

Man makes them happy

Cause man makes them toys

And after man make everything everything he can

Even though the man makes money

To buy from other man

[Chorus]

This is a man's world

This is a man's world

But it wouldn't be nothing

Nothing without a woman or a girl

[Outro]

Oh how, how man needs a woman

I sympathize with the man that don't have a woman

He's lost in the wilderness

He's lost in bitterness

He's lost in loneliness

Man’s world by James Brown

BOYS DON’T CRY

I would say I'm sorry

If I thought that it would change your mind

But I know that this time

I have said too much

Been too unkind

I try to laugh about it

Cover it all up with lies

I try and laugh about it

Hiding the tears in my eyes

Because boys don't cry

Boys don't cry

I would break down at your feet

And beg forgiveness

Plead with you

But I know that it's too late

And now there's nothing I can do

So I try to laugh about it

Cover it all up with lies

I try to laugh about it

Hiding the tears in my eyes

Because boys don't cry

I would tell you

That I loved you

If I thought that you would stay

But I know that it's no use

That you've already

Gone away

Misjudged your limit

Pushed you too far

Took you for granted

I thought that you needed me more

Now I would do most anything

To get you back by my side

But I just keep on laughing

Hiding the tears in my eyes

Because boys don't cry

Boys don't cry

Boys don't cry
