You might guess it when you see me
I am not like the other girls
I don't think you want to be me
I don't think you want the gender curse
I am neither man nor woman
but I'm not as confused as you
I won't fit your expectations
this song isn't either false or true

I am not a trans woman - (I believe / or I hope so)
I am not a queen - (I don't slay/down with monarchy!)
I am not a lady/tranny - (I'm so sorry!)
I am not like you - (I believe / or I hope so)
## Main Riff + Verse
And when you see me breaking character
when I miss another social rule
when I fail to be a lady
Don't you wish, you could afford this, too - but
just because I have no manners
we're not all punks and terrorists - so
go, and respect the ladies
I'm afraid I must insist
