You see three men with a desire to be
Somebody who's equal, liberated, and free
We have to fight against biology as well as history
Let's sing a song to see if you agree
We men we have Y, a crucial letter
That is tinier than the tip of a pen
Imagine how this detail, though small
Has made a big difference for Barbie and Ken
It separates a she from a he
We're more macho than we, really need to be today
We also have an x of equal importance
That is part of our sensational plan
To be strong and silent lovers
As well as rubber glovers
It's time to introduce the modern man
You're a man if you can
Be strong and be brave, belong in a cave, your a man
You're a man if you can
Be wrong and behave like a week and meek and emotional man
You're a man if you can
Repair anything that is broken
A lady's heart an old sedan
You are more of a man, the less you're a man
You're a man if you can
It's not a piece of cake in case you thought so
But a struggle on many frontiers
A fight against opinions of the past
The modern man is busier than he appears
Our fathers' fathers couldn't care less about the new kind of stress
We experience right now
It's not that we complain, about all the changes
They are widening our emotional span
We will smell just like a flower
We won't piss in the shower
Who wouldn't just love the modern man
You're a man if you can
Be strong and be brave, belong in a cave, you're a man
You're a man if you can
Be wrong and behave like a week and meek and emotional man
You're a man if you can
Be aware of the roles and even change then
So me be be Jane and she Tarzan
You are more of a man, the less you're a man
You're a man if you can
You wonder when the modern man will prevail
Right now he is evolving at the speed of a snail
It's not for you or me to see but for the future to unvail
The splendor of the tender gernder bender male
You're a man if you can
Be strong and be brave, belong in a cave, your a man
You're a man if you can
Be wrong and behave like a week and meek and emotional man
You're a man if you can
Take care of a hyperdirty diaper
Before you know what hits the fan
You are more of a man, the less you're a man
You're a man if you can
