I first heard frank say
He wanted to dress like fay wray
I wanted that too but what could I do
In junior high school in la?
My heart skipped in the scene
He said you gotta be it, not just dream
It was a taboo I knew I wouldn't pursue
I didn't have the self-esteem

I gotta confess that I like to cross dress
And I've been doing it since I was 13
It's hard to tell bros
That you wear women's clothes
Even in the "open-minded" punk scene
You'd probably get hurt in heels and a skirt
When you're in the middle of a circle pit
So I'd only wear panties
Under boxers to keep it all a secret
Now I'm telling everyone 'cause it's fun
And I don't give a shit

Forward 30 years
I still had the same fears
Then I saw hedwig play at bilgewater's gig
And I felt the same envy and tears
I decided right there
I can't be bothered to care
What other people think
I'm gonna dye my pubes pink
And throw out all my hanes underwear

I'm not transgender, I'm a lazy crossdresser
Who thinks makeup is too much of an ordeal
I paint my toes and wear shiny tight clothes
Not for the look, but how it makes me feel
I don't need things just right
I'm a tranvest-lite
I only shave to do the time warp midnight saturday
I'm done with self-pity
I don't have to feel shitty
'cause I wanna look pretty
So I give it the old city college try
Don't get me wrong, I still wanna be a guy
Who sometimes likes to dress like a girl
(he sometimes likes to wear diamonds and pearls)
Don't think I don't know I'm not fooling anyone
(he's a cross between adele and charlie chaplin)
You gotta know it's not just girls
Who just wanna have fun!
