Ah, Men
From "Real Life Funnies", based on the Stan Mack comic strip.
Lyrics and Music by Alan Menken


He said you've got to be what you want
if you want to be with me.
I said being with you
is exactly what I want to be.
He said wanting to be with me
is losing your identity.
Ah, men... Ah, men...
So I decided to try again.

He said you need my respect
and independence might accomplish that.
I said I'll pack and leave today;
I'm really glad we had this chat.
He said you're trying to injure me,
now, honey, that's not where it's at!
Ah, men... Ah, men...
But you can't guess what happened then!

We made love, we made love,
we made love...Ah, men!
And we smoked, and we talked
and we talked and talked
and fucked things up again...Again!



He said I want you to be with me
and let me have my time alone.
I said you really are the most confusing person
that I've ever known.
He said the fact that you're confused
is why you can't live on your own.

He said you've got to be what I want
you to be, and then you'll grow
into the girl you really are
underneath the one we know.
I said this has been fascinating,
thanks a lot, I think I'll go.
Ah, men... Ah, men...
Can you believe what happened then?

We made love, we made love,
we made love again.
And he said don't ever go;
and I left. Amen!
