Son and Daughter - BBC Session, July 1973/With DJ Chatter Songtext
von Queen

I want you to -

Tried to be a son and daughter rolled into one
You said you′d equal any man for having your fun

Didn't you feel surprised to find the cap just didn′t fit?
The world expects a man to buckle down and to shovel the sh-
What'll you do for loving when it's only just begun?

I want you
To be a woman, yeah

Tried to be a preacher and a fisher of men
An equal people, preacher, will you lead us all the same now?


Well, I travelled all ′round the world and found
A brand-new word for day
Watching the time, mustn′t linger behind
Pardon me, I have to get away
What'll you think of heaven if it′s a back from where you came?

I want you
To be a woman
I want you to be a woman

Steel yourself, this is valid
Hit it

Oh, but didn't you feel surprised to find
The cap just didn′t fit?
The world expects a man to buckle down and to shovel it
What'll you do for knowing when it′s only just begun?

I want you
To be a woman
Ooh, I want you to be a woman
