****** boy, ****** boy
You're playing with the wrong toy
That truck is only for the boys
Lost girl, Lost girl
Put on a pink dress, spin around and twirl
That's what you're supposed to do
****** boy and Lost girl
They're one person, their life is unfurled
A hell washed over hir and now hir head's underwater
H. I. R.
Not a her or he clearly
And I want to just scream, no
But ****** boy put down that toy
Lost girl, go put on that dress and twirl
My mind says trucks and mud
But the bigger people say to twirl
And so I twirl
Around this world, placing my feet on the continents
Singing to the oceans as I glide on top of them
And so I twirl..
But maybe I want to watch while my daddy's fixing our car
And maybe I don't twirl the way all the girls do
Maybe I have a rougher, less eloquent twirl
But Maybe I want to listen as my brother's talking football plays
And maybe I don't have the brightest, girliest smile
Maybe I've got one only fit for a boy
Maybe I want to play with trucks until the sun hides
Maybe I want to be the quarterback on the field
Maybe... I want to make cities in the sand box
Maybe it's because... I am a boy.
