Transgender:
Transgender. The chords are transgender.
Transgender. All my love is transgender.
I was once in love with a transgender chords. Now I’m out of love with a transgender boy.
I was so bemused by the dresses he wore. And his stiletto shoes, but he’s a drunk and a bore.
Transgender. The chords are transgender.
Transgender. All my love is transgender.
I was once in love with a Lucky Chang’s whore. Then I fell out of love when her boobs hit the floor.
Things are so confusing. I’m just a bloody hot mess.
I was footloose and dandy. Now I’m teared up and well dressed.
Transgender. The chords are transgender.
Transgender. All my love is transgender.
I think I’m head over heels with a warrior princess. She’s my navy seal. She’s my buttercup.
Christopher or Kristen, the rose smells so sweetly. She’s my navy seal. She’s my buttercup
Transgender. The chords are transgender.
Transgender. All my love is transgender.
(Looks like a woman, feels like a man. Dress like a woman. Well she tastes like He-man)
