Original Broadway Cast of Kinky Boots
What a Woman Wants
[LOLA]
Stand back, let me tell you something
What a woman wants to see
Stand back, Mr. I-Know-Everything
But it's what you blindly see
What a woman wants
Masculinity
(What a Man)
Sensitivity
(What a Man)
In a fantasy
(What a Man)
What a woman wants
(What a Man)
A muffin to clutch
(What a Man)
Just a tender touch
You don't get out too much
To know the smoothness of her skin with a gentle caress
Feel the feathery quality of her dress
What separates a man like you from a man like me
I'm a reflection
Her protection
I'm her curious mystery
(What a Man)
What a woman
(What a Man)
What a woman wants
(What a Man, what a man)
What woman wants
(What a Man, what a man, What a Man, what a man)
What a woman
(What a Man)
What a woman
(What a Man, what a man)
What a woman wants
(What a man)
[DON]
C'mon we all know what a bird really wants is a rock solid-
[LOLA]
Mmhmm...commitment!
Look at me, devilishly debonair
Look at you, divinely dull, drab and dumpy
[DON]
A woman wants a man to give as much as she can take
Just like me
[COMPANY]
A libidinous Lothario on the make
[DON]
Oh, piss off!!
[LOLA] (SPOKEN):
Oh I have a challenge for you
Write down what you think
I need to do to be a real man and
I'll do the same for you
Whatever you tell me to do
I will have to do
But you will have to do the same for me
Deal?
[DON]
I ain't wearing no poofy dress
[LOLA]
Chickening out already?
REPEATS:
(What a man, what a man, what a man)
What a woman wants
What a woman wants
What a woman wants
What a woman
What a woman
What a woman wants is me
What a woman wants
What a woman wants
(What a man)
