What Does A Woman See In A Man

He stinks to high heaven, half covered with hair
    Ab                        Bb7   Eb
And grunts just like some old orangutan
          Gb              Db         E           B
While she smells of clean skin and a trace of jasmine
    Bb7                        Eb
And speaks like a first rate librarian

Abm                              Gb
His stomach hangs out, there's a hump on his back
   Bmaj7                  E
He eats like Conan the Barbarian
          Gb            Db            E          B
While she keeps herself trim, and her posture is prim
    Bb7                        Eb
Her manners are quite cosmopolitan

Abm                         Gb
He laughs like a donkey and farts in the bed
    E                       Eb  Bb7
And flips cigarettes in the can
        Eb          Fm7           Eb      Ab
But she always acts nice, with no visible vice
         Gm7         Cm7   Fm7      Bb
Tell me, what does a woman see in a man?

He hangs out in bars and he tells stupid jokes
And seems to think he's a comedian
But she's clever, polite, stays sober all night
And sips on her one Presbyterian

He drives a gas hog like Attila the Hun
And woe to the luckless pedestrian
While she prefers bikes and bird-watching hikes
And sailing and riding equestrian

He has a name like Duane or Leroy
Hers is Vanessa or Anne
Hers sounds like a song but Duane is all wrong
Tell me, what does a woman see in a man?

Cm          Bb        F
Doesn't she know that she's unique
F#          F#+       F#6                  B
Doesn't she know that he's just a freak of nature
C#               Bmaj7  C#                  Bmaj7
Overbearing, insecure,  wanting love but so unsure
C#                       Eb
Loving her because she's pure

And yet, dreaming of orgies in Vegas or Cannes
He preens and strikes poses Olympian
While she shoulders the cross
And lets him play boss
His nurse and long-suffering Samaritan

He brags about knocking the world on its ass
But oh, when the shit hits the fan
She'll bail him out, she's the one with the clout
Only she knows how humankind ever began
What does a woman see in a man?
What does a woman see in a man?
