A satirical, accusing song about the “bad” in men, especially within the concept of relationships, mentioning domestic abuse after alcohol consumption, claiming to be always right and to never listen to your GF/wife, and the only thing worrying about is a receding hairline.
[Verse 1]
It's good to be a man these days
Don't have no conscious about my evil ways
Don't ever feel bad for the awful things I say
It's good to be a man these days
To be a man would be serene
Drinking beer till I get mean
Chewing tabaco, kissing girl like life's a dream
To be a man would be serene
[Chorus]
And I bet it gets tiring
Always having to be right
Well I'd love to be a cheating man
To fill those lonely nights
[Verse 2]
To be a man would be just fine
My only worry would be my receding hair line
I only give love that's on my own time
To be a man would be just fine
To be a man would be damn good
I'd do dumb things 'cause I should
Getting stuck in a ditch like my woman knew I would
To be a man would be damn good
It's good to be a man these days
It's good to be a man these days
It's good to be a man these days
It's good to be a man these days
