Janis Ian - Genderless lyrics

Everybody meets somebody they love
Best, yes, yes, yes
Everybody’s searchin’ for a place
To rest, yes, yes, yes
Everybody shares a secret
Loneliness, yes, yes, yes
The secret lies in learning how to
Share the rest, yes, yes, yes

How I wish I could be genderless, genderless
Pissin’ like a fountain in my brand new dress
Deep within or not my friend, genderless
Yes, yes, yes

Well, I used to fool myself
A total mystery, yes, yes, yes
Mies from my valley and therapy, yes, yes
Yes i was stuck in the rut
Of the bourgeoisie, yes, yes, yes
‘Til I read up on Krafft-Ebing, and
It set me free, yes, yes, yes

Now I’m ready to be genderless, genderless
Pissin’ like a fountain in my brand new dress
Deep within, we all begin genderless
Yes, yes, yes

I don’t know, Dave
We might need a real horn player
Well, obviously we’re not gonna steal
Well, no we’re not that type
We don’t have any sections ya know
Fico does all those kinda rap records
Maybe we can get in like
Somebody to rap over it? Huh, rap?
Oh, I hear cascading orgams in strings
Myself my mind is a globe
Your mind is a globe?
A whirling, transient, hypnosive globe
Awash with the sound of music
I hear bagpipes, I’m sorry

We all meet a little genderless, genderless
Play all tries of trumpet on
My brand new dress
Deep within, it all begins genderless
We need a little genderless, genderless
Play all tries of trumpet on
My brand new dress
Deep within, it all begins genderless
Gimme more of the esoteric instruments
Yes, yes, yes trouser trumpet, perhaps
Yes, yes, yes
Or Ken’s favorite, the rump cannon
Yes, yes, yes
Why not just get Simon to explode?
