Pretenders - Crying in Public lyrics

[Pretenders - Crying in Public lyrics]

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

Will be crying in public, in the car
Or the mall

Crying in public crying in public

She's on the train, alone there she sit's
Sobbing her heart out, falling to bit's
On a park bench on a sunny day

When a woman's distressed, you best look away

If she's crying in public crying in public

Feminists claim that we're all the same
But, I don't know a man
Who's felt the same shame

She might look a million or only ten cents
When mascara runs, there's no recompense

Aristocrat, pauper or the bourgeoisie
All know what it feels
Like when life's misery

Means crying in public crying in public

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

And you're crying in public, crying in public
Crying in public, crying in public
Crying in public, crying in public
