if i’d been a man lyrics
[elizabeth]
if i had my say
if i could wish the time away and rewind my life somehow
who would i be now
if i’d been a man?
nothing to lose
no role to choose
because a man on the move doesn’t need to prove his worth
knows his place from birth
since the world began

a man can set aside his feelings
be a shark in business dealings
rise above the weak and small
and reach for all he can
i alas am neither either or
and so my guy walked out the door
could i bear it more
if i’d been a man?

[helena]
though i made my name
became tops at my gamе in a field i nearly own
would i sleep alone
if i’d been a man?
i’d makе the rules
suffer no fools
in full command of my ship
like a captain at the helm
monarch of my realm
master of my plan
a man can be an absent parent
stray the way a woman daren’t
build an empire for his sons
and everyone’s his fan
i love only men i can’t caress
two sons ashamed of my success
would they loathe me less
if i’d been a man?

[elizabeth]
not a chump, a contender

[helena]
if i’d been a man

[elizabeth]
it’s the curse of my gender

[both]
what man has half the b-lls that i have?
rides the peaks and falls that i have?
why are they the proud and tall
and i’m the also-ran?

[helena]
though i’ve come a long, long way, i know
[elizabeth]
and have the scars for it to show

[helena]
how far could i go
if i’d been a man?

[elizabeth]
if i’d been a man

[both]
if i’d been a man
could i win if i had been a man?
