And things for my eyes that will double their
size
Not to mention powder and base. Fragrant perfume from the French fills the room And I snap my earrings in place.
Of course I will wear a switch of hair Topped with a pretty bow
The veil is flimsy; the hat is a whimsy It's quite stylish you know.
And a purse to clutch is very much The feminine thing to do
I'm afraid I'm in love with kid leather gloves I have a pair that are new.
I feel quite stunning; perhaps even cunning I'm now a woman you see
I can gossip and chatter and talk silly patter With other ladies at tea.
I can toy with my necklace and be quite reckless When out on a shopping spree,
I can be vivacious and even flirtatious And free as fancy free.
They'll say, "She's cute" and "I love her suit" When I high-heel down the street
As demure as a lamb I'll answer to Ma'am And take the gentleman's seat.
I'll slacken my gait and patiently wait For the man to open the door
When asked to dance (dare I take the chance?) The man will guide round the floor
Submissive and pretty; passive yet witty And still you must realize
That I am a man and a very good man
Though dressed in a woman's disguise.
