Transsexual Blues - Lyrics

Swan Real - composition, drums
Jamilah Sandoto - bass, piano, vocaks
Mya Byrne - guitar, vocals

It’s a not-funny joke
it’s a coupon for a rope
it’s a bill to be alive I can’t afford

It’s awful nice that you admire uu
but it don’t mean a thing if you don’t hire us
I’m way too fucking famous to be this poor.

It’s not something you can hide
when poisons coincide
You’re giving me the finger with your smile
I’m done with chasing shadows
I can’t eat on when I had shows
I’m way too fucking famous to be this poor.

Don’t know who’s dick I need to suck
if that’s all they want from us
I can’t be on my knees if I’m dead

I’m an afterthought Pride hire
I’m a feeling you can’t fire
I’m a book on every shelf nobody’s read.

I’m paying for my body
I’m in debt SO many laws deep
Can I just take out a loan
I want to sleep

I can’t afford fun
I’m running out of breath to run
I’m way too fucking famous to be this poor.
