If he really loves you
He'll put no one above you
And that's what I call
A touch of respect
He'll hold you, squeeze you
Say he'll always need you
And that's what we girls
Have come to expect
When you're busy
He'll phone you
Each day, he'll grow and grow
There'll be things
You'll just have to accept
But if he's worth each wakin mornin
When he sets that engine roarin
Must be doing somethin right
Don't forget
He won't always get it right
Will often fall short every other night
But if you're feelin that worthy word
A touch of respect is a lot of worth
Be kind to him if he's good
He's just a man mis-understood
You see, half right is alright with me
Mr Perfect don't live here in reality
When you're weary he'll notice
And gently play you Otis
To smooth your cares
Well out of the way
And as he rubs your tired shoulders
You'll ask why no one told us
Our men show they care
In their own way
So don't lead him a merry dance
All he wants is half a chance
To prove he's worth his weight in gold
It's not as if he slyly planned
To pretend he's from another land
It's just the way our men
Come out of their mould
He won't always get it right
Will often fall short every other night
But if you're feelin that worthy word
A touch of respect is a lot of worth
Be kind to him if he's good
He's just a man mis-understood
You see, half right is alright with me
Me Perfect don't live here in reality
Perfect men I'm talkin perfect men
Mr perfect is just a figment
Of our own mentality
