I wish that you were a girl Lyrics
i wish you were a girl
a girl who is soft as silk
but silky from the inside out
don't get me wrong, i like you anyway
i'll be with you today
you can show me your way
'cause i feel green
if you know what i mean
don't be so nice to me
'cause i feel awkward
i wish you were a girl
but i'm not sorry that you're not
'cause i'm still flattered
don't get me wrong
but everything's so new
'cause i'm not scared for some reason
'cause i got naked with you
'cause i feel green
if you know what i mean
don't be so nice to me
'cause i feel awkward
'cause if you were a girl (oh)
nothing would seem to matter
('cause) if you were a girl (oh)
i wouldn't really care
i wish you were a girl
i hate what i just said
i wish you were a girl
for some reason, i don't know,
but someone told me to
'cause i feel green
if you know what i mean
don't be so nice to me
'cause i feel awkward
'cause if you were a girl (oh)
nothing would seem to matter
('cause) if you were a girl (oh)
i wouldn't really care
if you were a girl (oh)
come on over and see me
if you were a girl (ooh)
i'm sinning for another answer
i'm sinning for my right to care
i'm laughing but it's not so funny
so take me far away from here
i wish you were a girl
i wish you
i wish you were a girl
i wish you
i wish you were
a girl who is soft as silk
but silky from the inside out
i'll be with you today
you can show me your way
if you know what i mean
don't be so nice to me
'cause i feel awkward
but i'm not sorry that you're not
'cause i'm still flattered
but everything's so new
'cause i'm not scared for some reason
'cause i got naked with you
if you know what i mean
don't be so nice to me
'cause i feel awkward
nothing would seem to matter
('cause) if you were a girl (oh)
i wouldn't really care
i hate what i just said
i wish you were a girl
for some reason, i don't know,
but someone told me to
if you know what i mean
don't be so nice to me
'cause i feel awkward
nothing would seem to matter
('cause) if you were a girl (oh)

if you were a girl (oh)
come on over and see me
if you were a girl (ooh)
i'm sinning for my right to care
i'm laughing but it's not so funny

i wish you
i wish you were a girl
i wish you
i wish you were
I will never understand why this wasn't a huge hit. It's smart, catchy, even a little dangerous. What's not to love? These boys were good.
every time i listen to this song it makes me think about a guy struggling with his sexuality. always thought its about a guy wishing his gay crush was a girl so he would be shunned for liking them.
