Brando Songtext
von Dory Previn

Of course, I always told myself
"You know how women get"
I′ll bet I could have handled him
If only we had met
Where other women failed him
When other women tried
I alone could cater to
His passions and his pride

Talk about deflated egos
That was the woman's thing
Christ, we only felt complete
At the feet, at the feet of a king


Of course, I′m liberated now
I see life as it is
I call my soul my very own
And I no longer covet his
No one else can get you through
I've learned with some regret
I've outgrown all my heroes
I am cured of kings and yet, and yet

The other night by chance I saw him
There on the TV screen
Overbearing, arrogant
Marvelous, marvelous and oh, so mean

And that old addiction gripped me
You know how women get
I′ll bet I could have handled him
If only we had met
Oh, I′ll bet I could have handled him
If only we had met
