Man's World

I was wondering this morning
No coffee had been made
I didn't hear your footsteps
No smell of marmalade
No breakfast on the table
It's driving me insane
Did you leave me in the pouring rain

I was standing in the shower
Liquid soap came to an end
No towel on the hook
And no fresh ones there at hand
I was standing there wet to the bone
It's driving me insane
Did you leave me in the pouring rain

We know, we are living in a man's world
James Brown has made it perfectly clear
Yes, we know, we are living in a man's world
It would be nothing without a girl

Intermezzo

The perception of the doorbell
Was the relief to me
You were going to the baker's shop
To buy fresh bread for me
So, I will bring you flowers
Won't wait till Mother's Day
Cause I know, without you, there's no way

We know, we are living in a man's world
James Brown has made it perfectly clear
Yes, we know, we are living in a man's world
It would be nothing without a girl

We know, we are living in a man's world
It would be nothing without a girl
And you're the one that I would
Defend at any cost

'Cause I know, without you, I'd be lost
'Cause I know, without you, I'd be lost
