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
