Lyrics for Song: She's A Girl And I'm A Man
Lyrics for Album: The Collection [1999]
she said she didn't understand and so she guessed he was deep
he swore he'd never been to college and was too tall to be
so as she led him to the slaughter thinking she'd be laughing last
now the lady in the question is his better half
she's gotta be the stupidest girl i've ever seen
she don't care who, why, where i've been
she's got a right to be, with all that's wrong with me
but she doesn't wanna understand that she's a girl and i'm a man
he thought that women and drink would make a man out of him
but the extent of his studies left a jaded man
so as she led him to the altar he was easily led
and when they asked him if he did, well then this is what he said
she's gotta be the stupidest girl i've ever seen
she don't care who, why, where i've been
she's got a right to be, with all that's wrong with me
but she doesn't wanna understand that she's a girl and i'm a man
well she's a girl and i'm a man
she's a girl and i'm a man
she's a girl and i'm a man
she's a girl and i'm a man
she's a girl and i'm a man
she's a girl
she's gotta be the stupidest girl i've ever seen
she don't care who, why, where i've been
she's got a right to be, with all that's wrong with me
but she doesn't wanna understand that she's a girl and i'm her man
every time she's near me
she gives me any reason to be alive
try to get right
yeah she looks right through me
she says you're not cool, you're just like me
you're a stupid man
get over here, hold my stupid hand
she's all right, yeah...
you wouldn't understand, sister is a man fan
she's gotta be the stupidest girl i've ever seen
she don't care who, why, where i've been
she's got a right to be, with all that's wrong with me
but she doesn't wanna understand that she's a girl and i'm a man

She's A Girl And I'm A Man
Released on Lloyd Cole's 1999 compilation album, 'The Collection', this track stands as a defining example of his signature blend of indie rock and soulful R&B. The song features Cole's distinctive vocal delivery, characterized by a smooth, baritone tone that anchors the track's melancholic yet rhythmic groove. Produced with the polished sound typical of late 90s British indie, the recording captures a moment of introspective romance, reflecting Cole's ability to merge personal vulnerability with catchy, danceable instrumentation. As a staple of his discography, the song exemplifies the era's shift toward more organic production while maintaining the emotional depth that made his earlier work, such as 'Don't Get Weird On Me Babe', so influential. It remains a key listening choice for fans exploring the breadth of his catalog and the broader landscape of 1990s alternative music. |
