Lyrics
[Verse 1]
With it, I become the death Dickinson feared
With it, I'm a red admiral on his ship
And I raise with infants for my coronation
I rule over all my dead impersonations
[Verse 2]
'Cause I've got it
I'm a man now
I've got it
I'm a man now
And I won't let you steal it
I bought it for myself
I'm a man now
(She lies, she lies)
[Verse 3]
I hit the bird-dogs who are pulling my hair
Because their teeth should ravage a golden beard
I've lost some eyeless friends whose blood runs cold
My new people on silent heels pretends to be old
[Verse 4]
'Cause I won
I'm a man now
Yes, I've got it
I am a man now
And I won't let you steal it
I bought it for myself
I'm a man now
(She lies, she lies)
Oh, lord
[Verse 5]
She wants to be a man, a man
But she lies
She wants to be born again, again
But she'll lose
She draws her own crotch by herself
But she'll lose because it's a fake
It's a fake, it's a fake, it's a fake
[Verse 6]
No, I've got it
I'm a man now
Yes, I've got it
I'm a man now
And there's nothing you can do
To make me change my mind
I'm a man now
(She lies, she lies)
Oh, lord
[Verse 7]
She's a man now
She's a man now
And there's nothing we can do
To make her change her mind
She's a man now
[Verse 8]
She's a man now
She's a man now
And there's nothing we can do
To make her change her mind
She's a man now
[Verse 9]
She's a man now
She's a man now
And there's nothing we can do
To make her change her mind
She's a man now
