Iu0027ve 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 Iu0027m 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 youu0027ve got me thinking

I wish I could be a girl, and that way youu0027d wish I could be your girlfriend, boyfriend.
Am I pretty enough to lie to?
I wish I could be a girl, and that way youu0027d 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.

Iu0027ve been feeling lighthearted since I gained enough weight back to cover my bones.
I get dressed up in shadows one leg at a time – weu0027re so alike.
‘Cause if the shoe fits, then I wonu0027t try it on. Youu0027ll be walking out early, but the show must go on.
No, I know that Iu0027m wrong. But I love how youu0027re on my side when I cross the line.
Itu0027s 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 youu0027d wish I could be your girlfriend, boyfriend.
Am I pretty enough to lie to?
I wish I could be a girl, and that way youu0027d 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 Iu0027ve been called worse. Iu0027ve heard it all before, and this isnu0027t 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 youu0027d 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 Iu0027d 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.
