You might think you understand

What turns a boy into a man

You gotta search alone and worthy

But that'll make a lonely girl

That has the top and that rules the world

A king who choose his crown over his queen

Before he gets the notion he doesn't need you

Before the motion grows your plan proceeds to

Say what about me

Say what about me

Look at all the heads I'm turning in the street

Well my oh my don't you realize

One thing should be on your mind

What about me

You meet his friends you meet his folks

You love his songs you love his jokes

You show him all the moves he's never seen

Then you take his will away

You never go a single day without asking him

With whom or where he's been

You do it all to show him what he's worth

The last things it's about is helping her

Say what about me

Say what about me

Look at all the heads I'm turning in the street

Well my oh my don't you realize

One thing should be on your mind

What about me

I have lived a privileged life

But I have seen my share of strife

And nothing beats the boy that's leaving me

I might have pushed a little hard

I might have took it way too far

But you've got respect consistency

That's why the next time I won't wait to fall

You know me I won't hesitate to

Say what about me

Say what about me

Look at all the heads I'm turning in the street

Well my oh my don't you realize

One thing should be on your mind

What about me

What about me

What about me
