You Don't Need a Man

What could I offer you that you would need?

Why would I wanna make an angel bleed?

I think you're fightin' somethin'

I think you know it's true

Why did you stay away when you always knew?

You don't need a man

To make you a woman

But I'm tellin' you, you need the shade

To make you shine

And you don't need love

You need something better

You show me your soul

And I'll show you mine

I've seen how people treat you so nice

The truth is nothin' happens in paradise

I came to haunt you

I came to blow your world apart

With a thousand flowers and a broken heart

You don't need a man

To make you a woman

But I'm tellin' you, you need the shade

To make you shine

And you don't need love

You need something better

You show me your soul

And I'll show you mine

Uh, I didn't know you were so conventional

Why'd you need a man to hold your hand?

Don't you know I'm one-dimensional?

I will show ya

Yeah, I'll show ya

You don't need a man

To make you a woman

But I'm tellin' you, you need the shade

To make you shine

And you don't need love

You need something better

You show me your soul

And I'll show you mine, yeah!
