She Was Never He

Tasha was a stunning vision,
painted eyes with such precision
Longer legs than any girl I know
Swishing down the Old Kent Road,
with her hips on overload
Making sure the lonliness don't show

She was never he
for as long as I remember
She was never of her gender categorically
She was never he
though the boys at school were cruel
You would have to be a fool not to see

That she was never...

Jodie she was quelle surprise,
to fool the boys was such a breeze
But deep inside her heart the terror flowed
What if he should realise,
break her heart or black her eyes
These things are so important for a girl to know

She was never he
for as long as I remember
She was never of her gender categorically
She was never he
though though this world could be so cruel
You would have to be a fool not to see

And the government says
you no longer exist It's a kick in the eye,
it's the final twist Of the surgeons knife
Welcome to my glamorous life

Oh the big dark man
Will he turn a blind eye
Love me for who I am
Turn me out and make me cry

She was never he
for as long as I remember
She was never of her gender categorically
She was never he
though this world could be so cruel
You would have to be a fool not to see

that she was never...
Victims

The victims we know so well
They shine in your eyes
When they kiss and tell
Strange places we never see
But you're always there
Like a ghost in my dream
And I keep on telling you
Please don't do the things you do
When you do those things
Pull my puppet strings
I have the strangest void for you

We love and we never tell
What places our hearts in the wishing well
Love leads us into the stream
And it's sink or swim
Like it's always been
And I keep on loving you
It's the only thing to do
When the angel sings
There are greater things
Can I give them all to you

Pull the strings of emotion
Take a ride into unknown pleasure
Feel like a child on a dark night
Wishing there was some kind of heaven
I could be warm with you smiling
Hold out your hand for a while
The victims we know them so well...

The victims we know so well
They shine in your eyes when they kiss and tell
Strange places we never see
But you're always there like a ghost in my dream
And I keep on telling you
Please don't do the things you do
When you do those things, pull my puppet strings
I have the strangest void for you

Show my heart some devotion
Push aside those that whisper never
Feel like a child on a dark night
Wishing we could spend it together
I could be warm with you smiling
Hold out your hand for a while
The victims we know them so well, so well...
Cheapness and Beauty

This is a real addiction, confusion and cheap tattoos
A princess, a car thief, and a lost shoe
Lonliness, laughter, lust, the promise of pain
Judas in blue jeans tell me your name

Glue for the broken toy, the wings for the saint
A buddah, a false God, and some war paint
Wasting your wisdom, yes, but who can you trust
Love holds a mirror up to all of us

Eyes across the room, unspoken
Eyes, glitter promise
Cheapness and beauty
Trickery and lies
Cheapness and beauty
Oh I'm weak sometimes

It's much too late to say goodbye
Despite all good advice
This pain is such a part of me
I won't apologize

For running to your rescue
Though you slap me in the face
It doesn't really matter
'Cause we always fall in love again

Cheapness and beauty
Trickery and lies
Cheapness and beauty
Oh I'm so weak sometimes
Cheapness and beauty
Trickery and lies
Cheapness
I won't apologise
