Don't be a pussy, they say,
Don't cry,
Don't feel a certain way,
Just be a guy.

Be a man.

Because real men don't shed tears,
They simply mutter "cheers"
And down a few beers
Along with their peers
Until Jesus appears.

A real man becomes drunk as a skunk,
Keeping his feelings under lock and key.

Oh the horror that'd be unleashed
If he dared set his emotions free.
