You'll Never Be A Man








"'You'll Never Be A Man'

 is another lust song, 

but it's about a woman 

who wants to play 

the sexual power game 

the way that men usually do.

It just doesn't all make sense logically

like a Sunday school parable."



[Record Collector, 1995]





You need protection 
from the physical art of conversation
Though the fist is mightier than the lip,
 it adds the aggravation

I got the password
I got persuasion
A proposition for invasion 
of your privacy
Give yourself away 
and find the fake in me

You'll never be a man
No matter how many foreign bodies you can take
You'll never be a man
When you're half a woman and you're half awake
With a face full of tears and a chemical shake
Given half a chance, that I can take
Are you so superior, are you in such pain
Are you made out of porcelain?
When they made you they broke the cast
Don't wanna be first, I just want to last

You strike a profile 
on the low side of my imagination
My eyes climbed down to find
 the point of possible saturation

I got the password
I got persuasion
A proposition for invasion 
of your privacy
Give yourself away 
and find the fake in me

You'll never be a man
No matter how many foreign bodies you can take
You'll never be a man
When you're half a woman and you're half awake
Under the table with a chemical shake
Given half a chance, that I can take
Are you so superior, are you in such pain
Are you made out of porcelain?
When they made you they broke the cast
Don't wanna be first, I just want to last
