Am C G
Little boys cry and look around for comfort
Am C G
And always get what they want
F/A C Am
Little boys see toys and say “I can take that!”
G Am
Oh, you are my little boy

[Chorus 1]
Em
Though honestly, sir
Dm
All I wanna do is get naked in front of you
Em
So you can look me up and down and tell me
Dm E
“Well done, girl, you’re looking good”

Real men keep cool in the face of a fire

Go down with the ship

And real men don’t eat

‘Cause they’re above that, damn it

Oh, I’m gonna be a real man

Though honestly, sir

All I wanna do is get naked in front of you

So you can look me up and down

And give me your love for being so good

Am G
But little boys hold me, color me

Praise me, make me feel lovely
G
For a little while
Dm
So little boy, say you want me
Am
‘Cause, well, I can’t take it
G
Go ahead
G
Do it, do it
