Manchild Lyrics
[00:00.00]
[00:01.99] Oh, boy
[00:03.10]
[00:10.15] You said your phone was broken
[00:12.30] Just forgot to charge it
[00:14.42] Whole outfit you're wearing
[00:15.86] God, I hope it's ironic
[00:18.21] Did you just say you're finished?
[00:19.83] Didn't know we started
[00:21.97] It's all just so familiar
[00:23.68] Baby, what do you call it?
[00:27.94] Stupid
[00:29.66] Or is it
[00:31.40] Slow?
[00:33.59] Maybe it's
[00:35.83] Useless?
[00:37.81] But there's a cuter word for it
[00:39.73] I know
[00:41.44] Manchild
[00:45.36] Why you always come a-running to me?
[00:49.21] Fuck my life
[00:53.19] Won't you let an innocent woman be?
[00:57.06] Never heard of self-care
[01:00.99] Half your brain just ain't there
[01:04.89] Manchild
[01:08.78] Why you always come a running
[01:11.22] Taking all my loving from me?
[01:13.95]
[01:21.15] Why so sexy
[01:23.20] If so dumb?
[01:24.69] And how survive the earth so long?
[01:28.58] If I'm not there, it won't get done
[01:32.48] I choose to blame your mom
[01:35.93] Manchild
[01:40.02] Why you always come a-running to me?
[01:43.80] Fuck my life
[01:47.81] Won't you let an innocent woman be?
[01:51.72] Never heard of self-care
[01:55.60] Half your brain just ain't there
[01:59.31] Manchild
[02:03.36] Why you always come a-running
[02:05.81] Taking all my loving from me?
[02:07.94] Oh, I like my boys playing hard to get
[02:11.23] And I like my men all incompetent
[02:15.16] And I swear they choose me
[02:17.49] I'm not choosing them
[02:19.08] Amen
