Tried to be your son and daughter rolled into one You said you'd equal any man for having your fun Now didn't you feel surprise to find The cap just didn't fit? The world expects a man To buckle down and to shovel shit
What'll you do for loving When its only just begun? I want you to be a woman
Tried to be a teacher and a fisher of men An equal Will you lead us all the same? Well I travelled around the world To find a brand new word for day Watching the time mustn't linger behind Pardon me I have to get away What'll you think of heaven If it's back from where you came? I want you to be a woman
