Playboy to a Man |
| You had your own way one too many times and now |
| Youre going to find out what its like |
| Just what its like, now youre a mess |
| You wanted something you could never possess |
| You went your own way one too many nights |
| You treated her like some small oversight |
| What in the world makes her think that she can |
| Turn you from a playboy into a man |
| Shes going to make you suffer tonight |
| To turn you from a playboy into a man |
| And when youre worthy of her then she might |
| Turn you from a playboy into a man |
| You thought you were the answer to her prayers |
| The perfect gift that every girl prefers |
| But thats the trouble cos every girl still thinks youre hers |
| So there you are with your gold chains jangling |
| Your lucky charms and jewelry dangling |
| But when she saw you she turned and ran |
| To turn you from a playboy into a man |
| You couldnt see that the juvenile things you do Would drag you down and now that the jokes on you |
| Youre pretty cold you end as you start |
| When your facade isnt falling apart |
| So now youre standing in your underwear |
| Well now you know just how it feels for her |
| Youre halfway there you know that she can turn you from a Playboy into a man |
