As soon as I'm born they made me feel big
   That I was privileged without having to be rich
   They had a place set aside for me to help to run this society
   If I followed the paths laid down for me
   I could join the club called Patriarchy
   Because I'm a he, because I'm a he, because I'm a he
   If I didn't get far 'cause the ladder was too long
   I could be my own boss, with a workforce of one
   No matter how low I go there'll always be lower
   It's taken for granted that a white man holds power
   And I am white, and I'm a man, I don't have to justify what I am
   And now it's relatively easy for me to get taken seriously
   Because I'm a he, because I'm a he, because I'm a he
   'Cause I'm not black and I'm not Irish, I'm not a woman
   I don't get too much stick just for being what I am
   'Cause I am white and I'm a man, I don't have often to justify what I am
   Now it's relatively easy for me to get taken seriously
   Because I'm a he, because I'm a he, because I'm a he
   Hassled--I've been hassled, but I don't get hassled on sight
   I don't dread going out at night, I don't have to worry 'cause I'm alright
   Singing about it doesn't exclude me but if I keep quiet then all people see
   Is compulsory white male superiority complex that's forced on me
   Because I'm a he, because I'm a he
   It's no good feeling guilty, it's what I am
   But it's up to me to do what I can, by not being what I'm supposed to be
   By fighting white male supremacy
   By fighting government policy
   By fighting bosses of companyies
   By fighting fascist democracy
   But not forgetting to look at me, no, not forgetting to look at me
   Not forgetting to look at me, because I'm a he
