People say that if it's meant to be
It is best that you set him free
Perhaps in time, move into other things
But I don't care if it's right, if it's wrong
I say clip his wings

Girl, no need to spoil him, let him be a man
Some things about a man, that you have got to understand
He needs to feel his power, king of everything
But you're the queen that's all he needs so remember
I say clip his wings
I say clip his wings, mmh-mmh

People say that loves a game of chance
But I would never, a gamble of romance
Don't be a fool, a smart woman knows what to do
You've got to hold him tight, play it right
He will never ever hurt you

Girl, no need to spoil him, let him be a man
Mmh-mmh, ah, some things about a man you got to understand
He needs to feel his power, king of everything
But you're the queen that's all he needs, so remember
I say clip his wings
Pluck them out, trim them down
But you're the queen that's all he needs, so remember
I say clip his wings
Pluck them out, trim them down
But you're the queen that's all he needs, so remember

You're the queen that's all he needs, so remember
I say clip his wings
Pluck them out, trim them down
But you're the queen, all he needs, so remember
I say clip his wings
