Real Men - Joe Jackson
INTRO Bb C Bb C Bb C
1) Dm C F
Take your mind back, I don`t know when.
C Dm C Bb
Sometimes when it always seemed to be just us and them.
Dm C F
Girls that wore pink, boys that wore blue.
C Dm C Bb
Boys that always grew up better men than me and you.
2) What`s a men now, what`s a man mean.
Is he rough or is he rugged is he cultural and clean.
Now it`s all change, it`s got to change more,
`cause we think it`s getting better but nobody`s really sure.
Bb C Bb C
CHORUS : And so it goes, go round again,
Bb C Bb C F G A
but now and then we wonder who the real men are.
A G A G
Fm Am Bb C Bb C
3) See the nice boys, dancing in pairs.
Golden earring, golden tan, blow-wave in the hair.
Sure they`re all straight, straight as a line,
all the gays are macho, can`t you see their leather shine.
4) You don`t want to sound dumb, don`t want to offend.
So don`t call me a faggot, not unless you are a friend.
Then if you`re tall, and handsome and strong,
you can wear the uniform and I could play along.
CHORUS
5) Time to get scared, time to change plan.
Don`t know how to treat a lady, don`t know how to be a man.
Time to admit, what you call defeat
`cause there`s women running pasture now, and you just drag your feet.
6) Man makes a gun, man goes to war,
man can kill, man can drink and man can take a whore.
Kill all the blacks, kill all the reds,
and there`s war between the sexes and there`ll be no people left.
CHORUS
