[Beyoncé] If I were a boy even just for a day I'd roll out of bed in the morning And throw on what I wanted and go Drink beer with the guys and chase after girls I'd kick it with who I wanted And I'd never get confronted for it Cause they'd stick up for me [Beyoncé] If I were a boy I think I could understand How it feels to love a girl I swear I'd be a better man I'd listen to her cause I know how it hurts When you lose the one you wanted Cause he's taken you for granted And everything you had got destroyed [R. Kelly] If you were a boy Then girl you'd understand You need to stop listening to your friends Love, respect, and trust your man So I go to clubs with the guys And sometimes flirt with the girls I should be able to roll out As long as I'm comin' home to you And give you the world But you're not a boy So you don't have a clue How I work and pay the bills Girl, everything I do is for you [Beyoncé] I'd listen to her Cause I know how it hurts When you lose the one you wanted Cause he's taken you for granted And everything you had got destroyed [Beyoncé] If I were a boy [R. Kelly] If I were a girl [Beyoncé] I would turn off my phone [R. Kelly] I wouldn't play games [Beyoncé] Tell everyone it's broken So they'd think that I was sleepin' alone [R. Kelly] Girl you know that's wrong [Beyoncé] I'd put myself first And make the rules as I go Cause I know that she'd be faithful Waitin' for me to come home To come home [R. Kelly] But you're not a boy So you can't understand You are not a perfect woman And I am not a perfect man Baby, baby [Beyoncé] I'd listen to her Cause I know how it hurts [R. Kelly] Girl, I know how you feel [Beyoncé] When you lose the one you wanted And she's taken you for granted And everything you had got destroyed [R. Kelly] Got destroyed, said I'm sorry [Beyoncé] It's a little too late for you to come back [R. Kelly] But I can't let you go Cause I'm too attached [Beyoncé] If you thought I would wait for you You thought wrong [Beyoncé] But you're just a boy
