Real Men (Live)

[Intro]

All right, this is a song for, for the Australian rugby team

After their incredible triumph a few days ago

And of course for anyone else that wants to listen

[Verse 1]

Take your mind back, I don't know when

Some times when it always seemed to be just us and them

Girls that wore pink, boys that wore blue

Boys that always grew up better men than me and you

[Verse 2]

What's a man now? What's a man mean?

Is he rough or is he rugged? Is he cultural and clean?

Now it's all changed, it's got to change more

'Cause we think it's getting better but nobody's really sure

[Chorus]

And so it goes, go round again

But now and then we wonder who the real men are

[Verse 3]

See the nice boys dancing in pairs

Golden earring, golden tan, blow wave in their hair

Sure, they're all straight, straight as a line

All the gays are macho, can't you see the leather shine?

[Verse 4]

You don't wanna sound dumb, don't want to offend

So don't call me a faggot, not unless you are a friend

Then if you're tall and handsome and strong

You could wear the uniform and I could play along

[Chorus]

And so it goes, go round again

But now and then we wonder who the real men are

[Verse 5]

Time to get scared, time to change plan

Don't know how to treat a lady, don't know how to be a man

Time to admit what you call defeat

'Cause there's women running past you now while you just drag your feet

[Verse 6]

Man makes a gun, man goes to war

Man can kill and man can drink and man can take a whore

Kill all the blacks, kill all the reds

And if there's war between the sexes then there'll be no people left

[Chorus]

And so it goes, go round again

But now and then we wonder who the real men are

[Outro]

Thank you
