lyrics
Let me tell you a tale: hope you understand
I was once a woman before I was a man
I was a woman: weak, alone and a-feared
Now I’m a man a-with muscle and beard
I made a wish upon auspicious star
To my tits I said au revoir
I willed a cock to grow in the dead of the night
Changed into a man so I can take up the fight
I am what I am
and I’m glad I’m a man
As a girl they said “don’t play with boys”
A life established by feminine toys
A barbie, kitchen set, a pram and a doll
“Learn yourself to be a lady that’s all”
Yours is not the life with the burden of choice
“Men like you better when you got no voice”
Pregnant at college before I could qualify
No education now I’m too tired to try
I am what I am
and I’m glad I’m a man
Twins were born now always work to be done
Cook, clean without a wage; without anyone.
To pay the bills I cleaned an office uptown
Abusive boss says he’s just foolin’ around
Met a boy with a matrimonial plan
A ring and a curse I became the slave to the man
He fooled around while I clean-up the mess
What little I was I became even less
I am what I am
and I’m glad I’m a man
Men made me feel used, abused and afraid
Now I’m a man I gots vengeance to be paid
I was a woman trapped in a man’s world
But body-magic made my sex uncurled
I grew myself the throbbing loins of a male
Now I make men suffer in my revenge tale
At night I rape and attack lost boys
I am a man. And I destroys.
