Tasha was a stunning vision, painted eyes with such precision
Longer legs than any girl I know
Swishing down the Old Kent Road, with her hips on overload
Making sure the lonliness don't show
She was never he for as long as I remember
She was never of her gender categorically
She was never he though the boys at school were cruel
You would have to be a fool not to see
That she was never...
Jodie she was quelle surprise, to fool the boys was such a breeze
But deep inside her heart the terror flowed
What if he should realise, break her heart or black her eyes
These things are so important for a girl to know
She was never he for as long as I remember
She was never of her gender categorically
She was never he though though this world could be so cruel
You would have to be a fool not to see
And the government says you no longer exist
It's a kick in the eye, it's the final twist
Of the surgeons knife
Welcome to my glamorous life
Oh the big dark man
Will he turn a blind eye
Love me for who I am
Turn me out and make me cry
She was never he for as long as I remember
She was never of her gender categorically
She was never he though this world could be so cruel
You would have to be a fool not to see
She was never he for as long as I remember
She was never of her gender categorically
She was never he though this world could be so cruel
You would have to be a fool not to see
That she was never...

Swishing down the Old Kent Road, with her hips on overload
Making sure the lonliness don't show
