Why Can’t A Man Stand Alone

[00:00:00] Why Can't A Man Stand Alone - Elvis Costello

[00:00:01] Why can't a man stand alone

[00:00:09] Must he be burdened by all that

[00:00:13] He's taught to consider his own

[00:00:20] His skin and his station

[00:00:26] His kin and his crown

[00:00:31] His flag and his nation

[00:00:34] They just weigh him down

[00:00:37] You know pride is a sin

[00:00:43] That we tend to forgive

[00:00:45] But it gets hard to live

[00:00:49] When you don't have the love

[00:00:52] In her heart to begin with

[00:00:57] Why can't a man stand alone

[00:01:12] Why can't a woman be just

[00:01:17] What she seems

[00:01:20] Must she be tarnished by

[00:01:24] Men who can only be men in their dreams

[00:01:32] When beauty meets ignorance

[00:01:38] They shout in the street

[00:01:43] Repeating their offer to each girl they meet

[00:01:48] The respect that she needs it isn't a gift

[00:01:57] But it gets hard to lift yourself up

[00:02:01] When you don't have the

[00:02:04] Strength to begin with

[00:02:08] Why can't a woman stand alone

[00:02:17] Why can't a baby sleep at

[00:02:23] Night and dream of the time to come

[00:02:27] And never fear the world

[00:02:32] Outside the touch of someone very near

[00:02:41] Why can't a man stand up

[00:02:49] Why can't a man stand up

[00:02:55] Why can't a man stand alone
