Rainu Lyrics by Paul Shapera

The Puppetshade Chronicles 1: The Black Beyond

2024

Rainu:
My baby only loves me when I’m a woman
My baby only loves me when I’m a gal

The Kratu as I’m sure you know have three genders we cycle through
Female, male, and ora then we spend
About three months as each and then the next one comes and cycles in
And round and round our genders go again

The thing that makes this more complex, in biologic terms of sex
Desire and attraction also change
My love they only want me when we’re both in female form but then
When I’m a male they view me with distaste

I take my gun and out I go to every ugly rock I know
I kill whoever they tell me to get
And I’m a bored, gun in my hand, hard-drinking, marching, killing man
When I’m done be with my lover once again

Me, I’m an anomaly, I love her so in all my three
States; this isn’t normal, this I know
There’s drugs that are illegal but, they help to keep a gender stuck
We both try hard to stay in female mode

As Kratu military see, for everyone’s compulsory
Three years at the least we all must serve
The military has the drugs to keep our gender fixed and stuck
And soldiers must be male throughout their term

I take my gun and out I go to every ugly rock I know
I kill whoever they tell me to get
And I’m a bored, gun in my hand, hard-drinking, marching, killing man
When I’m done be with my lover once again

Slowly the time passes when
(The days, and the days, and)
The days never quite seem to end
Your spirit it falls to the road
(As time seems, as time seems)
As time seems to go oh so slow

So I’m a soldier doing time, but Mir my love, she placed real high
An officer, and as I’m sure you’ll guess
Officers are female see, for three years male I have to be
My body, it repulses her at best

And so we’re here, I do my best, just one year more to go unless
I’m too bad or too good and then they can
Extend my damn enlistment so, I keep my head on down real low
And wait til we’re together once again

I take my gun and out I go to every ugly rock I know
I kill whoever they tell me to get
And I’m a bored, gun in my hand, hard-drinking, marching, killing man
When I’m done be with my lover once again

I take my gun and out I go to every ugly rock I know
I kill whoever they tell me to get
And I’m a bored, gun in my hand, hard-drinking, marching, killing man
When I’m done be with my lover once again
