[02:49.69] [02:50.84]Why is logic never even tried? [02:53.04] [02:54.30]Straight'ning up their hair is all they ever do. [02:56.81] [02:57.40]Why don't they straighten up the mess that's inside? [03:01.19]Why can't a woman behave like a man? [03:03.64] [03:04.58]If I was a woman who'd been to a ball, [03:07.26] [03:08.01]Been hailed as a princess by one and by all [03:11.47]Would I start weeping [03:12.36]Like a bathtub overflowing? [03:14.40] [03:15.16]And carry on as if in my a home were tree? [03:17.90] [03:18.51]Would I run off [03:19.63]And never tell me where I'm going? [03:21.36] [03:22.30]Why can't a woman be like me?
