Lyrics
A Woman Needs A Man
Just like a fish needs a bicycle
Heed my advice and you'll find yourself feeling as happy as a clam.
Take a look at me,
Young and in love with New Amsterdam
Don't need a man I can be on my own and I'm feeling fancy free.
Please don't misunderstand me my dears
Misandry just isn't my style,
But in order to find a man worth your time
You're probably gonna be waiting a while.
So sisters hear my plan:
Don't be so eager to wed some fool.
Determine instead that you'll finally stop giving a damn!
Just how you need one more hole in your head,
That's how A Woman Needs A Man
