| Danny's Announcement: i prefer all my clothes to have crotches And pockets and collars i try to stand just right in my 501's And try to affect cool disinterest Even if leaning against my wallet just threw my back out i shine my Doc Martens and wear them with everything People sometimes call me "Sir" on the phone And in person And i walk with more bounce than my mother would prefer And i never have a bad hair day Just bad haircuts i rise when a Lady stands to do whatever it is that Ladies spend hours in the bathroom doing i hold doors for everyone Even the perplexed-looking guys i feel alone more than i would like to And smoke more than i should i don't dance very well But i'm great at pool And a couple of silly bar tricks that make everyone laugh i'm a musician, an artist, and a computer genius And a Pisces and a sydeco music fan and a long-walks-beanth-the-stars type And i will never admit that i do this just to meet Women i stand apart from the crowd, usually on the crowd's own volition i do what feels right and good for me And i don't give a good goddamn how uncomfortable that makes anyone Because i feel i just feel And that's a great thing to know how to do If you never learned before When i'm sad, i cry When i'm happy, i laugh When i'm scared, i fight back And when i'm with the Woman i love, She places Her happiness into my hands And offers Her tenderest parts into my mouth And feel Her blossom into my empty places Complete, She lets me gude Her to the screaming edge Where We are happy to remain i am her boitoy Not her Man And She wants me that way i may be my own woman But i'm Her butch |
