The Turtles
You Want to Be a Woman
[Verse 1]
And I know that you want
All the people to see
That you're so pretty
And you're proud being so loud
It's makin' all of the crowd
Take an eye to you
You want to be a woman
And you've got so much to do

[Verse 2]
If I say "Are you real"?
But you're showin' inside
That you've tried to hide
And I know you should see
Our love's been given a scar
Where you've tried too hard
You tried to be a woman
But you overplayed your part

[Chorus]
Now, your eyes are sweet
And your body breaks
Every man you know
All your disgustin' shows
Realize what you need to do
For any man to want to be with you
And love you like you want him to
You want to be a woman
But it can't show through
Doin' it the way you do
[Verse 3]
And I know what you've seen
And what people have said
And what books you've read
If you knew what they've made of you
You would never have played
And remained your bed
You were born to be a woman
But you're somethin' else instead

[Chorus]
Now, your eyes are sweet
And your body breaks
Every man you know
All your disgustin' shows
To realize what you need to do
For any man to want to be with you
And love you like you want him to

[Outro]
Realize what you need to do
For any man to want to be with you
And love you like you want him to
Realize what you need to do
For any man to want to be with you
And love you like you want him to
Realize what you need to do
For any man to want to be with you
And love you like you want him to
Realize what you need to do
For any man to want to be with you
And love you like you want him to
