Billy is a new man, he does the best he can

to figure out what it's about and what the

hell he's meant to be.

He does the right thing when expected, nuff

respect , once in a while he likes a smoke and a joke,

just as long as it's P.C.

And he thinks that he cries at the Movies

'Cos he's in touch with his feminine side

Sally wants a proud man

Sally wants a proud man

Sally wants a proud man

But she's taken all his pride



Billy is a new man, at least when she's around,

a model father or if needed, he'll

be mother for the day,

He watches "Men Behaving Badly" though

he'll gladly switch it off if she's offended

he'll pretend it wasn't funny any way

He's got one face he keeps for his woman

And one for when he's out with the guys

Sally wants a true man

Sally wants a true man

Sally wants a true man

But he's living out a lie



Better go and find an analyst, or something

time for sorting out his head

Better go and find a book to read about it

just like his daddy never did



And he reads Marie Claire at the Doctors just

in case there is something he should know



Sally wants a free man

Sally wants a free man

Sally wants a free man

But she will not let him go



Billy is confused, he feels abusive and abused

he's got one hand on an olive branch

the other on his crotch

He drives a sensible coupe, he thinks Oasis

are OK, he drinks non alcoholic lager though

he'd rather drink a scotch



And he tries very hard to be happy but there

are a few little things in the way



Billy wants a good girl and a bad girl and a

blonde girl, and a brunette or a Bond girl and

a house maid and a teas maid and
