What's a man now? What's a man mean? Is he rough or is he rugged? Is he cultural or clean?
Now it's all changed It's gotta change more I think it's gettin' better But nobody's really sure
Take your mind back I don't know when Back when it always seemed to be just us and them Girls who wore pink Boys that wore blue Boys that always grew up better men than me and you
And so it goes Go 'round again But now and then we wonder where the real men are
Even nice boys, dancin' in pairs Golden earing, golden tan, blowing in their hair Sure they're all straight Straight as they lie All the gays are macho, can't you see the leather shine
You don't wanna act dumb, Don't wanna offend So don't call me a faggot now unless you are a friend
and tall And handsome and strong You can wear the uniform and I can play a role
And so it goes Go 'round again But now and then we wonder where the real men are
