What Does A Woman See In A Man - Jimmy Webb[00:00:00]
He stinks to high heaven half covered with hair[00:00:00]
And grunts just like some old orang-utan[00:00:06]
While she smells of clean skin and a trace of jasmine[00:00:12]
And speaks like a first rate librarian[00:00:17]
His stomach hangs out there's a hump on his back[00:00:23]
He eats like Conan the Barbarian[00:00:28]
While she keeps herself trim and her posture is prim[00:00:33]
Her manners are quite cosmopolitan[00:00:39]
He laughs like a donkey and farts in the bed[00:00:44]
And flips cigarettes in the can[00:00:50]
But she always acts nice with no visible vice[00:00:54]
Tell me what does a woman see in a man [00:01:03]
He hangs out in bars and he tells stupid jokes[00:01:11]
And seems to think he's a comedian[00:01:16]
While she's clever polite stays sober all night[00:01:21]
And sips on her one Presbyterian[00:01:26]
He drives a gas hog like Attila the Hun[00:01:32]
And woe to the luckless pedestrian[00:01:37]
While she prefers bikes and bird-watching hikes[00:01:42]
And sailing and riding equestrian[00:01:47]
He has a name like Duane or Leroy[00:01:52]
Hers is Vanessa or Anne[00:01:58]
Hers sounds like a song[00:02:03]
But Duane is all wrong[00:02:06]
Tell me what does a woman see in a man [00:02:10]
Doesn't she know that she's unique[00:02:19]
Doesn't she know that he's just a freak -- of nature[00:02:25]
Overbearing insecure wanting love but so unsure[00:02:34]
Loving her because she's pure[00:02:43]
And yet dreaming of orgies in Vegas or Cannes[00:02:47]
He preens and strikes poses Olympian[00:02:54]
While she shoulders the cross[00:02:59]
And lets him play boss[00:03:02]
His nurse and long-suffering Samaritan[00:03:05]
He brags about knocking the world on its ass[00:03:10]
But oh when the shit hits the fan[00:03:16]
She'll bail him out she's the one with the clout[00:03:22]
Only she knows how humankind ever began[00:03:29]
What does a woman see[00:03:38]
What does a woman see in a man[00:03:45]
