If I were a Boy - Beyonce . R Kelly


If I were a boy
Even just for a day
Id roll outta bed in the morning
And throw on what I wanted then go
Drink beer with the guys
And chase after girls
Id kick it with who I wated
And Id never get confronted for it.
Cause theyd stick up for me.

[Chorus]
If I were a boy
I think I could understand
How it feels to love a girl
I swear Id be a better man.
Id listen to her
Cause I know how it hurts
When you lose the one you wanted
Cause hes taken you for granted
And everything you had got destroyed
If I were a boy
I could turn off my phone
Tell evveryone its broken
So theyd think that I was sleepin alone
Id put myself first
And make the rules as I go
Cause I know that shed be faithful
Waitin for me to come home (to come home)

(Chorus)
Its a little too late for you to come back
Say its just a mistake
Think Id forgive you like that
If you thought I would wait for you
You thought wrong

(Chorus)
But youre just a boy
You dont understand
Yeah you dont understand
How it feels to love a girl someday
You wish you were a better man
You dont listen to her
You dont care how it hurts
Until you lose the one you wanted
Cause youve taken her for granted
And everything you have got destroyed
But youre just a boy




- Beyonce Knowles Lyrics


Anyway, this is the two take on both songs. I only knew of the first version. The one solely sang by Beyonce. Well, its definitely the point of view of a girl thinking she's a guy, while the second version is more of an argument between the two parties.

I like the second version more. I think RKelly did very well in mixing both the parts of the male and female. And I must say, R Kelly's part did more justice to the male's feelings. While Beyonce seems to be berating guys. BUT, I don't agree on some parts of the R Kelly's version.

Oh well. I hope you enjoy the song. Its a new song in the Singapore scene. But, definitely a top 10 number in the UK already. LOLS. Singapore, so slow. Please tell me your thoughts and which version you like better. =)

And please check out the Circus song of Britney which was out quite a long time ago. But, singaporeans are still on the womaniser song. But, I think I like Womaniser better though.

And thanks yuanting for introducing me the song 'If I were a boy' Beyonce version. I found the R Kelly one by accident. Hahahas. See you!
