    Uploaded by

    anna39
    Beyoncé's song "If I Were a Boy" discusses gender roles and relationships from a hypothetical perspective of being a boy. The song uses the second conditional to imagine what life would be like experiencing the world as a boy. It suggests boys have it easier in relationships by not having to listen to understand their partner's feelings, face fewer consequences for their actions, and are more likely to take their partner for granted. The music video shows Beyoncé experiencing scenarios from a male point of view to illustrate how relationships might be more balanced if both partners could understand each other's experiences.

    Beyoncé - If I Were a Boy

    A – Before watching the video, fill in the gaps with second conditional
    structures, using the verbs in parenthesis.

    If I _______________ a boy (be)


    even just for a day
    I _________________________ out of bed in the morning (roll)
    and throw on what I wanted and go

    Drink beer with the guys


    and chase after girls
    I ____________________ it with who I wanted (kick)
    and I ___________________ confronted for it (*never* get)
    cause they stick up for me

    Chorus:

    If I were a boy
    I think I could ____________________ (understand)
    How it feels to love a girl
    I swear I'd be a better man
    I ______________________ to her (listen)
    Cause I know how it hurts
    When you lose the one you wanted
    Cause he's taking you for granted
    And everything you had got destroyed

    If I were a boy
    I _______________________ off my phone (turn off)
    Tell everyone it's broken
    so they'd think that I was sleeping alone

    I ________________________ myself first (put)


    and make the rules as I go
    Cause I know that she _________________ faithful, (be)
    waiting for me to come home, to come home.

    [Chorus]

    It's a little too late for you to come back


    Say it's just a mistake,
    think I'd forgive you like that
    If you ____________________ I _____________________ for you (think) (wait)
    you thought wrong

    But you're just a boy


    You don't understand
    and you don't understand, ohhhh
    How it feels to love a girl
    Someday you wish you ______________ a better man (be)
    You don't listen to her
    You don't care how it hurts

    Until you lose the one you wanted


    Cause you're taking her for granted
    And everything you had got destroyed

    But you're just a boy


    B – Watch the video and after that, in pairs,
    discuss these questions: Glossary

    - kick it (verb)  to relax or
    pass time idly.

    - Have you ever wished that you


    - stick up for (phrasal verb) –
    were someone else? stick up for someone or
    - Do you think relationships are now something : to speak in
    more balanced than they used to be support of a person or an
    idea, belief, or plan,
    in our mother’s time? especially when no one else
    - If you knew your partner had will.
    cheated on you, would you accept
    his/her apology, or would you - take someone for granted

    someone to always be there
    - In your opinion, being a man is and do things for you even
    easier than being a woman? when you do not show that
    you are grateful.
