"Man Of The House" lyrics

"Man Of The House"

My ex got married last weekend
I don't even wanna be someone's wife
But I still get sick when it sinks in
I'm always the one before the one for life

I like the men never in it
Cause why want something so attainable
So I chase and I cave and I crave it
You taught me love was occasional

But I've grown up, and shown up, and made my own home

Now I can build these walls
Now I can say how tall they are
I can let you in (let you in)
Or I can kick you out (kick you out)
Read the fucking sign
No bullshit allowed
Now I'm the man of the house
Now I'm the man
Of the house

It's just under 800 square feet
And my cats can be gay if they want to
You don't have to take off your shoes
You can have a bad day and attitude
You can be anyone you want
Under my roof

Now I can build these walls
Now I can say how tall they are
I can let you in (let you in)
Or I can kick you out (kick you out)
Read the fucking sign
No bullshit allowed
Now I'm the man of the house
Now I'm the man

Are you a man or a mouse
We're the boys of the south
Smile more, make us proud
Look how well I'm endowed
It's a joke chill out
It's a joke calm down
It's a joke calm down

Now I'm the man of the house
Oh I'm the man
Now
