lyrics

I’ve been feeling lightheaded since I lost enough weight to fit back in my skin.
Flower pedals and feathers tether me to the ground. Pound for pound.
Take my tea with formaldehyde for my feminine side since the day that I died.
While I whittle my bones until I’m brittle. Am I pretty now?
For some reason I find myself lost in what you think of me.
And too confused to choose who I should be. And now you’ve got me thinking

I wish I could be a girl, and that way you’d wish I could be your girlfriend, boyfriend.
Am I pretty enough to lie to?
I wish I could be a girl, and that way you’d wish I could be your girlfriend, boyfriend.
Just little old me in a big, big world. Little old me in a big world. I wish I were a girl.

I’ve been feeling lighthearted since I gained enough weight back to cover my bones.
I get dressed up in shadows one leg at a time – we’re so alike.
‘Cause if the shoe fits, then I won’t try it on. You’ll be walking out early, but the show must go on.
No, I know that I’m wrong. But I love how you’re on my side when I cross the line.
It’s been a point of contention between myself and this body that they stuck me in.
The privilege of being born to be a man. And now you got me thinking

I wish I could be a girl, and that way you’d wish I could be your girlfriend, boyfriend.
Am I pretty enough to lie to?
I wish I could be a girl, and that way you’d wish I could be your girlfriend, boyfriend.
Just little old me in a big, big world. Little old me in a big world. I wish.

Eating your prosthetic meat/meet your anesthetic criteria, pathetic seeing you be copacetic/come acetic.
Say my name like a slur, but I’ve been called worse. I’ve heard it all before, and this isn’t a first.
Let me be the void you fill with taxidermy fingerprints, taxonomize our differences.
I am quantum physics, my witness brings me into existence.

I wish I could be a girl, and that way you’d wish I could be your girlfriend, boyfriend.
Am I pretty enough to love back? No, not yet.
I wish I could be a girl, and really I’d prefer it if you would use I/Me/Myself.
Am I pretty enough? Am I pretty enough to fucking die?
Little old me in a big world? Well I would give you my whole world. Little old me in a big world. I wish.

I wish I could be a girl, and really, I'd prefer it if you would use I/Me/Myself.
