lyrics

listen honey, I caught the gender flu.
and you know what? it felt great
holding hands, we found our niche
girls are boys, boys are chic
we’re a whole new thing
we can do anything, ding dong ding!
everything’s brand new since I caught the new flu
here comes me and my crew, woo hoo!
at the top of the mountain we can see the view
how the city lights up like the smile of a guru
Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah
Comin from ya lips just allotta blah
U run your mouth while I burn a bra
we just wanna be free

i wear glasses cause I’ve got a queer eye
when i’m feeling like it imma wear a tie
do my avant ways put you on guard
when i fight my battles in a leotard?

call me them cause I feel like dancing
touch my dress, we could be romancing
feel so free imma take my chances
i’m so fly that i’m stealin’ glances
stricken! caught the gender flu!
and baby don’t you know it’s chronic too
always keep it real cause it let’s me do
whatever I want to

catch my flow/ in time, so
you can watch them theybies glow
gender fluid, hair day-glo
purple lips? it’s a show
the year i was born, we were on the rise
we multiply right before your eyes
marsha johnson didn’t really die
she lives on bi
and if i’m not mistaken, there’s a new generation
where God is Love and we’re creatin’
life could be lived so beautifully
we just wanna be free

chorus

people only hate cause they’re lacking love
i can’t help but wonder if they’re jealous of
the freedom, how we live our lives
some little boys wanna be house wives
yeah two spirits are better than one
as least having two is a lot more fun
i’d like to think it comes eventually
we just wanna be free

i wear glasses cause I’ve got a queer eye
when i’m feeling like it imma wear a tie
do my avant ways put you on guard
When i fight my battles in a leotard?

feel it, uh
chorus
