Lyrics

[Verse 1: Paul McCartney & Elvis Costello] You had your own way one too many times And now you're going to find out what it's like Just what it's like now, now you're a mess You wanted something you could never possess You went your own way one too many nights And treated her like some small oversight What in the world makes her think that she can Turn you from a playboy into a man? [Chorus 1: Paul McCartney & Elvis Costello] She's going to make you suffer tonight To turn you from a playboy into a man And when you're worthy of her, she just might Turn you from a playboy into a man Turn you from a playboy into a man [Verse 2: Paul McCartney & Elvis Costello] You thought you were the answer to her prayers The perfect gift that every girl prеfers But that's the trouble 'causе every girl still thinks you're hers So there you are with your gold chains jangling Your lucky charms and your jewels are dangling But when she saw you, she turned and ran To turn you from a playboy into a man Oh-oh [Chorus 2: Paul McCartney & Elvis Costello] She's going to make you suffer tonight To turn you from a playboy into a man And when you're worthy of her then she might Turn you from a playboy into a man Turn you from a playboy into a man [Verse 3: Paul McCartney & Elvis Costello] You couldn't see the juvenile things you do Would drag you down and now the joke's on you You're pretty cold, you end as you start When your façade isn't falling apart And now you're standing in your underwear Well now you know just how it feels for her You're halfway there, you know that she can Turn you from a playboy into a man [Chorus 3: Paul McCartney & Elvis Costello] She's going to make you suffer tonight To turn you from a playboy into a man And when you're worthy of her then she might Turn you from a playboy into a man Turn you from a playboy into a man Turn you from a playboy into a man Turn you from a playboy into a man
