she s a woman and now he is a man

Hüsker Dü

I can see her loading boxes in my mind
Into a belvedere with a trailer pulled behind
Well things didn t go exactly as they planned
She s a woman and now he is a man

There s a vacancy between them everyday
And a sense of guilt that s not going away
When they get older perhaps they ll understand
She s a woman and now he is a man

And now he s into something that her heart cannot forgive
She s saying to herself, No, this is not the way to live
He ll never listen to her cause his mind is like a sieve
Oh brother! Oh brother! I m telling your sister
No way can I resist her

With a guilty feeling hanging in their brain
And the two of them are potentially insane
Well they ve had enough which is more than they can stand
She s a woman and now he is a man

I can see her loading boxes in my mind
Into a belvedere with a trailer pulled behind
Well things didn t go exactly as they planned
She s a woman and now he is a man
