Lady Grey - like a good man does

Men will never want me
I'm just a kid who's real fucked up
And it's too late to protect me
I think it's time I give it up

My hair's been short for three years now
Tell myself I like it this way
Even though I'll never be
The one that makes him say

I'll watch over you, sweetheart
I'll watch over you, sweetheart

Like a man does
Like a man does
Like a good man does
Like a man does

He'd put his hands on my back
I'd cook his meals at night
Cause I just can't see myself
Being me past twenty-five

I'd be his favorite little scandal
My skin unripe with age
And even when it makes us sick
He'd find the time to say

I'll watch over you, sweetheart
I'll watch over you, sweetheart

Like a man does
Like a man does
Like a good man does
Like a man does

I know that what I want's not what I need
But I want it so badly
I'd bury all my self sufficiency
if it meant he could see me
He'd kiss me goodnight if he could reach me
But instead he'll always leave

Like a man does
Like a man does
Like a good man does
Like a man does
