Mr. Man Lyrics
[Jimmy Cozier]
Somethin' about the way you smiled at me just drove me wild
Wish I could know if your alone, don't wanna cramp your style
But I cannot deny the feel that I feel when I look straight through your eyes
Feel my heart beating fast for her challenge may you try
I wanna know if you feel the way I do (I do)
I wanna know if there’s a chance for me and you (and you)
If there’s no way, meet at the bar and you say can't (you can't)
Cuz I don't wanna be, I don't wanna be. I don't wanna be
Unfair to Mr. Man, unfair to Mr. Man, unfair to Mr. Man, unfair to Mr. Man, unfair
[Alicia Keys]
Like the way you've given me attention through the night
Maybe I've had too much Remy, my man's right by my side
Every time I catch you watchin' me, feel somethin' down my spine
I play the game, it's just for fun and only for tonight
I wanna know what makes you feel the way you do (You do)
I think you're hopin' there’s a chance for me and you (and you)
Should I meet you at the bar and say we can't? (We can't)
Cuz I don't wanna be, I don't wanna be, I don't wanna be
Unfair to Mr. Man, unfair to Mr. Man, unfair to Mr. Man, unfair to Mr. Man, unfair to Mr. Man
[Alicia Keys]
I know all you wanna know is answers
[Jimmy Cozier]
Cuz you could give me what I need
You could give me everything I need
[Alicia Keys]
We both know that we're attracted
Should we let our desires lead?
I wanna know if you feel the way I do (I do)
I wanna know if there’s a chance for me and you (and you)
If there's no way, meet at the bar and say you can't (you can't)
Cuz I don't wanna be, I don't wanna be, I don't wanna be
Unfair to Mr. Man, unfair to Mr.Man, unfair to Mr. Man, unfair to Mr. Man, unfair
I wanna know if you feel the way I do (I do)
I wanna know if there’s a chance for me and you (and you)
If there's no way, meet at the bar and say you can't (you can't)
Cuz I don't wanna be, I don't wanna be, I don't wanna be
Unfair to Mr. Man
I wanna know if you feel the way I do (I do)
I wanna know if there’s a chance for me and you (and you)
If there's no way, meet at the bar and say you can't (you can't)
Cuz I don't wanna be, I don't wanna be, I don't wanna be

Yeah, once in awhile you run into a "Mr. Man" lol.
Alicia keys for life
It's that magnetic attraction, that feeling you get when you see someone across the room. She's saying that even though she's with her man, she's feeling him and can;t fight her desire for him. This is one of my fav. Alicia Keys songs, just because she pours her soul into her music and is so real. Ima marry Alicia Keys, mark my word
I think Mr Man in this song is referring to her boyfriend by her side, not the delicious man across the room. Neither of them want to be unfair to Mr Man
