lyrics

They will dress you as children, they will colour your nails
They will paint you from pictures
Baby don’t lose your tail
They will give you directions
Just by virtue of being male
But whatever the questions
Baby don’t lose your tail

Don’t lose your tail girl
Don’t lose your tail girl

Where fashion is the boss, and the cost insane
Where people come to die and supply loose change
They serve assuming cash
You’re hip
You’re not ill equipped in the wallet
Thank Gaultier

Mouth full of nothing but angry butterflies
Mouth full of nothing but angry butterflies

Yeah yeah, another meek attack
Yeah yeah, another meek attack

Going under the blade ‘cos they say all you’ll ever lose is a few more years
Cosmetic correction never makes ladies little girls, just a little more weird
Ain’t nobodies business if you wanna look a little weird, if it’s your idea
But any image that is forced by the media is criminal
Don’t fall for it, don’t fall for it

Don’t build on your dreams from glossy magazines
‘Cos all we need is you, girl
And that’s all that you need too
What they say men want you to be is wrong, I swear, I guarantee
‘Cos all we need is you, girl
And that’s all that you need too
Believe in nothing that you read about how you’re told to behave in bed
‘Cos all we need is you, girl
And that’s all that you need too
That Cosmo survey wasn’t designed to stay in your mind for the test of time
‘Cos all we need is you, girl
And that’s all that you need too

You’ll grow older little girl and your vision of the world
Will include your part as well, all this will change
Where you used to feel neglect, you’ll feel stature and respect
In everything that you affect, all this will change
You’ll make mistakes along the way, that just the price you got to pay
To be the way you want to stay
All this will change

All this will change

The rule is to enjoy being little girls and boys
The stereotypes in toys will ingrain as we separate
Poisoned little minds leaving common sense behind
Your brainwashed teenage child won’t be trained to retaliate

Keep your edge on, it’s all you’ll ever need
Keep your edge on, it’s all you’ll ever need

Don’t lose your tail, girl.
