When a Woman Is Around
I don't pretend to know the ways of the world
A means to an end seems the way
Whoever has the most of whatever is best
All the better
May the best man win
An eye for an eye
is a blind man's rule
I wasn't born to follow
I'm nobody's fool
Any other man
can swoon and soar (is that true?)
Truth is seldom found
by a man,
When a woman is around
When a woman is around
Your folly, your joy
No one can know
What makes you sigh
What makes you cry...
Lose that Cheshire grin
Take it like a man
Keep what's yours
Leave me mine
At the moment you could say
I'm presently optimistic
F*ck the travails that bedevil
put simply
for now
I acquiesce
Even now as it was then
So it will always be
The bridge has only widened
Lest your disguise is worthy
I was never born to lose
I belong to no party
Suspicion clouds, a man's heart
When a woman is around
When a woman is around
Your folly, your joy
No one can know
What makes you sigh
What makes you cry...
Lose that Cheshire grin
Take it like a man
Keep what's yours
Leave me mine
Lose that Cheshire grin
Take it like the man
Keep what's yours
Leave me mine
When a woman is around
When a woman is around
When a woman is around
When a woman is around
A means to an end seems the way
Whoever has the most of whatever is best
All the better
May the best man win
An eye for an eye
is a blind man's rule
I wasn't born to follow
I'm nobody's fool
Any other man
can swoon and soar (is that true?)
Truth is seldom found
by a man,
When a woman is around
When a woman is around
Your folly, your joy
No one can know
What makes you sigh
What makes you cry...
Lose that Cheshire grin
Take it like a man
Keep what's yours
Leave me mine
At the moment you could say
I'm presently optimistic
F*ck the travails that bedevil
put simply
for now
I acquiesce
Even now as it was then
So it will always be
The bridge has only widened
Lest your disguise is worthy
I was never born to lose
I belong to no party
Suspicion clouds, a man's heart
When a woman is around
When a woman is around
Your folly, your joy
No one can know
What makes you sigh
What makes you cry...
Lose that Cheshire grin
Take it like a man
Keep what's yours
Leave me mine
Lose that Cheshire grin
Take it like the man
Keep what's yours
Leave me mine
When a woman is around
When a woman is around
When a woman is around
When a woman is around
