like a good man does Lyrics

Men will never want me

I'm just a kid who's real fucked up

And it's too late to protect me

I think it's time I give it up

My hair's been short for three years now

Tell myself I like it this way

Even though I'll never be

The one that makes him say

I'll watch over you, sweetheart

I'll watch over you, sweetheart

Like a man does

Like a man does

Like a good man does

Like a man does

He'd put his hands on my back

I'd cook his meals at night

Cause I just can't see myself

Being me past twenty-five

I'd be his favorite little scandal

My skin unripe with age

And even when it makes us sick

He'd find the time to say

I'll watch over you, sweetheart

I'll watch over you, sweetheart

Like a man does

Like a man does

Like a good man does

Like a man does

I know that what I want's not what I need

But I want it so badly

I'd bury all my self sufficiency

if it meant he could see me

He'd kiss me goodnight if he could reach me

But instead he'll always leave

Like a man does

Like a man does

Like a good man does

Like a man does
