She has got an extra X, but what the heck, she doesn’t have a Y.
I don’t know, but I suspect, she rejects the notion that this
Makes me stronger than her.
As hard as I try, I just cannot
Convince her that I’m always right - except when I’m not.

She’s convinced she has a plan, what she doesn’t understand is I do too.
Sure, she thinks her plan is best, so we put it to the test,
Turns out, yes, she’s right.
As hard as I try, I just cannot
Convince her that I’m always right - except when I’m not.

It’s not hard to see that throughout all history.
The man has been lifted so high.
You see where that got us, the hero is not us
Maybe it’s time for a POTUS who has a Y. I think that would be fine!

She would take that extra X, spread a little love around the world
It would not take long, you know, for her to show she’s not a little
Girl.
As hard as I try, I just cannot
Convince her that I’m always right - except when I’m not.
