if i were a boy... a girl, perhaps....

friday nite, and is a gathering ,dinner, drink and chit chatt~ing with few good "sistas"... well, while on the way, beyonce latest album was played in my friend'c car.... suddenly i heard a song... if i were a boy. well, then i asked the ladies, what u think if u could be a boy??? everyone have different perceptions and thinking of what they can do if they were boys... they passed the same questions to me, if u a girl what would u do???? i told them, if i'm a girl i will choose to be a slut coz i dont believe in true love!!!! hahahahaha... funny rite??? but for me i think y not??? guys can flirt around and y not a girl do so... everyones laughed:)

while i came back frm the gathering, i start google on the mtv of that song.The music video for "If I Were a Boy", directed by Jake Nava, was shot in black and white and portrays a narrative about an ordinary day for a couple in a role reversal that is hinted at by the lyrics but is visually revealed only at the end of the video. It begins with Knowles and her husband reciting words such as "intimacy", "honesty", "commitment", "me", and "you". The song starts as her husband prepares breakfast and Knowles takes off to her job as police officer with an attractive male police partner (played by model Ryan Locke) with whom the sparks are clearly flying. While her curves are admired by the police partner, her husband is spending time at his office job looking up a pair of earrings to buy for her online. The husband calls Knowles, only to be ignored by his wife, who is out having a beer "with the guys." That night the husband gives Knowles the earrings and the two leave for a party at which he catches her dancing intimately with her police partner. As the husband confronts her at home, the reversal is revealed and roles are restored; we learn that the husband is actually the police officer with an attractive female partner. Knowles is the office worker who has been snubbed.

i love it and so do the lyrics:~

If I were a boy
even just for a day
I'd roll out of bed in the morning
and throw on what I wanted and go

Drink beer with the guys
and chase after girls
I'd kick it with who I wanted
and I'd never get confronted for it
cause they stick up for me

If I were a boy
I think I could understand
How it feels to love a girl
I swear I'd be a better man
I'd listen to her
Cause I know how it hurts
When you lose the one you wanted
Cause he's taking you for granted
And everything you had got destroyed

If I were a boy
I would turn off my phone
Tell everyone it's broken
so they'd think that I was sleeping alone

I’d put myself first
and make the rules as I go
Cause I know that she’ll be faithful,
waiting for me to come home, to come home.

If I were a boy
I think I could understand
How it feels to love a girl
I swear I'd be a better man
I'd listen to her
Cause I know how it hurts
When you lose the one you wanted
Cause he's taking you for granted
And everything you had got destroyed

It's a little too late for you to come back
Say it's just a mistake,
think i'd forgive you like that
If you thought I would wait for you
you thought wrong

But you're just a boy
You don't understand
and you don't understand, ohhhh
How it feels to love a girl
Someday you wish you were a better man
You don't listen to her
You don't care how it hurts
Until you lose the one you wanted
Cause you're taking her for granted
And everything you had got destroyed

But you're just a boy

this is a good song... a song that tell a story... feeling it now!!!
