Sad movies to watch because you need a good cry.
From a tender age, you are taught to be brave
Be strong and powerful, and maintain a bold image
Play with bikes, not with dolls
Watch some sports involving a ball
And there is one thing you just don’t dare
Never ever do you show up with your tears.
You are not allowed to be sensitive
Being emotional is just not your thing
It’s okay to be angry, it’s okay to shout
But once you cry, your manhood is in doubt
You are suddenly the talk of the town
Your tears are enough to make you a clown
“Look at that man, he cried yesterday
And for what, it was just his mom’s birthday
What is there for him to cry about?
Is he even a man, I doubt!!”
So all the guys out there, listen good
You can be violent and you can be rude.
But one thing there is that you should never try;
If you are a guy, you are not supposed to cry.
