Beta Male Songtext
von Ripe

Call it truancy Lack of attention
I think I′m just uninvolved
Play like olympians Tongue acrobatics
Are you Brave enough to pull this off

I watch my friends play dice
In a hope to split the bill and the bed
And I never learned how to up my game
I wasn't kidding I would need to be led

If you′d just hold my head
Heavy on my way back home
I'm telling you when I'm full grown
I′m telling you when I′m full grown (oh)


I don't know what I want just yet
How could you know
I′m telling you when I'm full grown
I′ll roll my own stones
(Ooh no no)
Baby give em hell
Show em you're the wildest son
Show em you′re a beta male
Your heart is not for sale
You're proud of all the sides you're on
Proud to be a beta male

You call it apathy lack of commitment
I think you′re just not my type
Clear every obstacle feels like we′ve done this
But maybe this time we'll get it right

I watch my friends play tennis
With their heart in their non-dominant hand
I never learned the rules for deuce
Now I′m thinking this is part of your plan

If you'd just hold my head
Heavy on the way back home
I′m telling you when I'm full grown
I′ll roll my own stones


Baby give em hell
Show em you're the wildest son
Show em you're a beta male
Your heart is not for sale
You′re proud of all the sides you′re on
Proud to be a beta male
You know my baby's got a steep steep debt to pay
Baby′s gonna be a-ok
Baby's proud to be a beta male

See I was seven when their marriage died
She was 11 when her folks divorced
It takes a second life to get it right
So, honey, I′ll chart my own course

If you'll hold my head
Heavy on the way back home
I′m telling you when I'm full grown
When I'm full grown

I DON′T KNOW WHAT I WANT JUST YET
How could you know
I′m telling you when I'm full grown
Full grown
I′ll be a beta male
Beta male
I'll be a beta male
Beta male
I′ll be a beta male
I'll be a beta male
