He was never your daughter

He was never your daughter,

not since the day he was born.

He was an identical twin to his sister, sure,

but your daughter? No.

 

I am dating your daughter, sir.

He has an assortment of ways to please me.

I love him, and he knows it;

he orders his ***** online to please me.

 

He was never your daughter.

Couldn't you tell from the way he looked

awkward in dresses?

The way he always cut his hair short?

 

He was never your daughter;

I am dating your daughter, sir;

but he is not, never was, a sister

to the brother who just wanted a hug.

 

"She feels like she's wearing the wrong decoration;

how would you like it if I put you

in a dress and paraded you around

in front of your friends?"

 

He was never your daughter, ma'am,

but you knew it.

He is not a lesbian, he's something different.

He is not your daughter, any more.

 

Certainly we all know

he wears things to hide his *******

And while I know what's down there in his pants

he won't let me see it.

 

He was never your daughter,

but I knew that.

I knew when he said, "FtM,"

that he was something different,

 

something special.

 

"I want to be a pelican

and have a bag for a face."

"Baby, baby, baby."

"Where's my ****

 

I've spent a month with your daughter,

and he cannot wait to tell it to your face

that he's moving out.
