Gender Trouble Lyrics by The Mourning Sickness

1999

[Verse]
My baby went to work today
I don't know what I am
Am I supposed to be a woman, or am I just a man?
She wears pants all day long, and they're not even tight
And I just sit here
My hair is such a fright
[Chorus]
I think I am in gender trouble
Identity abnegation
Masculinity dissociation
I want to be what I am supposed to be
Epideictic as a beauty queen
But hiding all from everyone who needs me
[Verse]
She goes out all day long, never wears a dress
I have no aspirations
I am really quite content
I can do the laundry, and make the breakfast too
She goes out in my boxers, but еveryone thinks it's cool
[Verse]
When I go out I likе to wear a dress
But it can be dangerous
To that, I must confess
So I prefer to wear some silky pantyhose
Hidden in my trousers where no one else will know
[Chorus]
I think I am in gender trouble
Identity abnegation
Masculinity dissociation
I want to be what I am supposed to be
Epideictic as a beauty queen
But hiding all from everyone who needs me
[Verse]
Boy, I'm glad I'm 6' 3”
No one else could guess
Am I supposed to be a woman, or am I just a mess?
I know I pee standing up, and this should keep me tough
But what they say a man is, I've really had enough
