Lean in closer babe
I got to get this off my chest
I’ve been staring at the ceiling and I just can’t get no rest
I’ve got this awful secret and its eating me alive
And if I disappear some day you’ll know the reason why
You see, us guys al work together, we’re all living by the code
We’re supposed to love you and then leave you, not allowed to take it slow
But I want to find a woman and make her my sweet wife
I want to treat her tenderly, be monogamous for life

Cuz I’m a traitor to my gender, a detractor from the cause
I’ve broken the unwritten rules, I’ve disregarded laws
A ghastly fate awaits me if anyone finds out
It’s not the kind of thing that I can even talk about
Cuz I’m a traitor

You know, those models are too skinny
They need some meat there on their bones
And what’s with all the makeup, girls look better on their own
When it comes to women’s shoes practicality comes first
I know that this is shocking, but you haven’t heard the worst
I like to cook, I like to clean, I like to cuddle after love
I talk about my feelings, I just can’t say enough
I can’t go back to where I’m from, I had to leave that town
Word got out I leave the toilet seat down

Cuz I’m a traitor to my gender, I’m a threat to all mankind
Sometimes I think they’re on to me and I’m running out of time
You ask me why I do it, gotta tell you I don’t know
Maybe something from my childhood, maybe flawed genetic code
But I’m a traitor

But if your lips come loose and leave me up against a fence
Please don’t think that I will hesitate to speak in my defense
I’ve thought it all through carefully and who is there to say
That I did not start this rumor as a way of getting laid
Cuz I’m a traitor
