PHILIP
Give me a freak
Any day of the week
I'm comfortable with those you call demented
Give me a freak
Not someone meek
With space between their ears that can be rented
I like noise
Aggressive boys
Hookers, thieves and queers and those confused
If you knew
What I knew
You'd be a freak too
I'm known in all the wrong places
I'm one of those faces
You'll never forget
And those who may not adore me
Could never ignore me
I'm placing a bet
I can be real shallow if I try
But there's so much more to me than meets the eye
My manner can be misconstrued as trite
ENSEMBLE
Yeah, right!
PHILIP
I'm irrepressible - a creature of the night
These rags don't tell the whole story
I live for the glory of turning your heads
ENSEMBLE
And while he has your attention
He'd kill for a mention
PHILIP
In the popular press
I'm the holy mother of invention
I'm so hip I never need to try
The perfect cure for your anal retention
I'm unforgettable, a creature of desire
