harry nilsson – what does a woman see in a man lyrics
[verse 1]
he stinks to high heaven, half covered with hair
and grunts like some old orangutan
while she smells of clean skin and a taste of jasmine
and speaks like a first rate librarian
his stomach hangs out, there’s a hump on his back
and he eats like conan the barbarian
while she keeps herself trim, and her posture is prim
and her manners quite cosmopolitan
he laughs like a donkey and he falls into bed
and flips cigarettes in the can
but she’ll always act nice, with no visible vice
tell me, what does a woman see in a man?
[verse 2]
he hangs out in bars and he tells stupid jokes
and seems to think he’s a comedian
but she’s clever and polite, stays sober all night
and sips on her one presbyterian
he drives a gas hog like attila the hun
and woe to the luckless pedestrian
while she prefers bikes and bird-watching hikes
and sailing and riding equestrian
he’s got a name like duane or leroy
hers is vanessa or anne
hers sounds like a song but duane is all wrong
tell me, what does a woman see in a man?
[bridge]
doesn’t she know that she’s unique
doesn’t she see that he’s just a freak of nature
overbearing, insecure
wanting love but so unsure
loving her because she’s pure
[verse 3]
yet, dreaming of orgies in vegas or cannes
he preens and strikes poses olympian
she shoulders the cross and lets him play boss
his nurse and long-suffering samaritan
he brags about knocking the world on its -ss
but oh, when it hits the fan
she’ll bail him out, of that there’s no doubt
she holds the secret of life in her hand
what does a woman see (what does a woman see)
in a man?
