Crying in Public

[Verse 1] Crying in public's an unfortunate thing A woman in love is a delicate thing And a woman who's sad for no reason at all [Pre-Chorus 1] Will be crying in public, in the car, or the mall [Chorus 1] Crying in public Crying in public [Verse 2] She's on the train, alone there she sits Sobbing her heart out, falling to bits On a park bench on a sunny day [Pre-Chorus 2] When a woman's distressed, you best look away [Chorus 2] If she's crying in public Crying in public [Bridge] Feminists claim that we're all the same But I don't know a man who's felt the same shame [Verse 3] She might look a million or only ten cents When mascara runs, there's no recompense [Pre-Chorus 3] Aristocrat, pauper or the bourgeoisie All know what it feels like when life's misery [Chorus 3] Means crying in public Crying in public [Verse 4] Knowing that everyone sees it revealed When the heartstrings are pulling you into a field You run through the cornrows and find nowhere to hide Then all of a sudden it bursts from inside [Outro] And you're crying in public, crying in public Crying in public, crying in public Crying in public, crying in public
