I've Never Been a Woman - Father John Misty
Never been a woman
But I know the pain
The pain of labor
And the warpath of age
Been with so many
Yet none have seen through
Despite their intuition
The extend of the route
Oh yeah I've never been a woman
Why must I befriend each
And every girl
I'm needing the lively lit bars
This dying dark world
I'm doped up on laughter
They always oblige
This emptiness in me
With wet glassy eyes
Oh yeah I've never been a woman
But they've given me my life
True love bears nothing
In common with this
This constant amusement
Some ceaseless caress
Yet I accept nothing
No price could be paid
The occasional miracle
With Marissa or Jane
Oh now I've never been a woman
My time here is so brief
I cannot pretend
That I can sustain you
Like this till the end
Don't lie to the ladies
It does not take words
All it takes is an inkling
That you they can cure
Oh now I've never been a woman
That much is sure
Wandering hunger
Grown and corrupt
Lays waiting each moment
While you tend while you selflessly touch
Satisfy and sate her
The only one in the room I can see
Who's really being pleasured
Is me is me is me
Oh now I've never been a woman
But I have known pain
