'Cause I'm A Man

First single of the forthcoming third album 'Currents', to be released in july 2015

[Produced by Kevin Parker] [Verse 1] Like the brutal morning sun It dawns on me, what have I done? Saying sorry ain't as good as saying why But it buys me a little more time Lost in the moment for the second time Each fuck up that I make, it makes you cry I'm just pathetic, that's the reason why In desperation, all that you can do is ask me why [Chorus] ‘Cause I'm a man, woman Don't always think before I do ‘Cause I'm a man, woman That's the only answer I've got for you (Uh) ‘Cause I'm a man, woman Don't often prowl before I choose I'm a human, woman A greater force I answer to [Verse 2] Once again, as it takes a hold I am aware I'm not in control You see, I have a conscience and it's never fooled But it's prone to be overruled You wanna know why I always think I’m right? (Why?) You never accept defeat and let it slide (Why?) I have no voice if I don’t speak my mind (Why?) My weakness is the source of all my pride I'll tell you why [Chorus] ‘Cause I'm a man, woman Don't always think before I do ‘Cause I'm a man, woman That's the only answer I've got for you (Uh) ‘Cause I'm a man, woman I'll never be as strong as you I'm a human, human A greater force I answer to (Uh)
