Lyrics:
[Verse 1]
Like the brutal morning sun
It dawns on me, what have I done?
Saying sorry ain't as good as saying why
But it buys me a little more time
Lost in the moment for the second time
Each fucking doubt I make, unleash a cry
I'm just pathetic, that's the reason why
In desperation, all that you can do is ask me why

[Chorus]
‘Cause I'm a man, woman
Don't always think before I do
‘Cause I'm a man, woman
That's the only answer I've got for you
‘Cause I'm a man, woman
Not often proud of what I choose
I'm a human, woman
A greater force I answer to

[Verse 2]
Once again, as it takes a hold
I am aware I'm not in control
You see, I have a conscience and it's never fooled
But it's prone to be overruled
You wanna know why I always think I’m right?
(Why?) You never accept defeat and let it slide
(Why?) I have no voice if I don’t speak my mind
(Why?) My weakness is the source of all my pride
I'll tell you why

[Chorus]
‘Cause I'm a man, woman
Don't always think before I do
‘Cause I'm a man, woman
That's the only answer I've got for you
‘Cause I'm a man, woman
I'll never be as strong as you
I'm a human, human
A greater force I answer to

  • @LacoSinfonia
    My brother and I literally have a word to describe the feeling you get when you listen to music like this: buttered
  • Put video speed to 1.5 and turn this into a Michael Jackson song.

    I came here because of my good taste in music.

    i still can't over how addictive and groovy the basslines are in Currents.

    8 years later... This man- he is a genius. The way he just- He is special, protect him at all cost!
  • @muhdfahmi131
    I like how tame impala songs from currents particularly this song, sounds extremely calming but the same time holds a very deep message in its lyrics about male struggle and how man pretend to appear strong but deep down they are as vulnerable or maybe even more vulnerable than women.

    This song does not get the recognition it deserves. Such a warm feeling and the mix is massive. A perfect spacey huge sound. I think it’s one of Kevin’s best
  • It makes me sad they don't play this song live, it's one of their absolute best.
  • @OneSolace
    Listening to this high is amazing. Pure eargasm.
  • I don't need drugs to feel high...I just have to listen to tame impala songs.
  • @lilchadaldrich
    I just played this to my girlfriend and now shes pregnant...
  • @skylarlee8670
    Sometimes I put this song on and just cry. This song is very powerful and it means a lot to me.
