lyrics

Lyrics:

[Verse 1]
*Inhale, exhale*

Practice what you preach
Is that something you teach?
Can I check your qualification?

A delicate self esteem
Pinned on equality
That you get to be the king of

But did you know
That no means no?
And that a nice guy with frustration
Still needs an invitation

It’s a dangerous game if we can’t criticise
The critic himself
Without fear and lies

It’s a knock off disguise
You’re just one of the guys

You’re just one of the guys

[Refrain]
Ah, ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah, ah-oh-ooh (you’re just one of the guys)
Ah, ah, ah, ah-oh-ooh
Ah, ah, ah, ah (you’re just- guy)

[Breakdown]
If I scream the ice breaks
But if I stand it shatters
I hear ya creepin’ to me
I hear your pitter your patter

Your eyes are seedy and you’re needy
Whisperin’ close
All they can hear is the TV
Say I’m sugar and spice
And yeah you play it nice
So if I’m squirmin’
Nobody will think I’m wise enough
To know it or show it
Shiverin’ in my skin

A fragile image curated
You hated
To be called anything but golden
Holdin’
Suspicions inside
Because you never made me cry
And if I told anyone
They’d say I’m fine and I
Lie

Dread keeps a finger over my mouth
Drippin’ in doubt
Tellin’ myself it wasn’t bad enough to
Him I was at fault
He exalts ya
Yeah I’m sugar and spice

[Refrain]
Ah, ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah, ah-oh
(You’re just one of the guys)

[Outro]
But did you know
That no means no?
And that a nice guy with frustration
Still needs an invitation
