Grown Man |
You got a grown man for a boyfriend |
So you better treat him just like a baby |
He’s a saint on Sunday, he’s a bum on Monday; |
The rest of the week he’s just crazy |
He’s unpredictable, like an animal |
Proud as an eagle, big and strong like a bear; |
He’s a snake and a frog, he’s a pig and a dog; |
There’s a menagerie that’s living in there |
You’ll be his princess--forever after, yes-- |
If you keep acting like you’re always sixteen |
He is the king, ruling the kingdom’s his thing; |
Just remember his mother is queen |
Sometimes he fools around when he goes out of town |
But sooner or later he’s bound to get caught |
He loves coming home, but then he has to roam; |
Mr. Ambivalence is the guy that you’ve got |
He’s got some problems--no, you can’t solve them-- |
He’s got some goblins he can’t exorcise |
Mostly he wants to cry, he’s afraid to die |
But he’s living life like it’s a booby prize |
He wishes he were young, a little better hung |
And he’s paranoid you feel that way too; |
So reassure him, you’ll never cure him |
But he still needs his daily dose of you |
You got a grown man for a boyfriend |
So you better treat him just like a baby |
Yeah, he’s a saint on Sunday, he’s a bum on Monday; |
The rest of the week… |
He’s asleep on Sunday, he’s a beast on Monday; |
Rest of the week… |
He’s blue on Sunday, and he’s manic on Monday; |
Rest of the week he’s just crazy |
