lyrics

Tracie:

WHEN DID YOU GET TO
BE SO FEMME, HARRY?
WHEN DID YOU START TO
PLUCK YOUR BROW?
THE OTHER DAY AT PRACTICE
YOU WERE HUGGIN' SECOND BASE,
AND NOW I SEE YOU MUGGIN'
WITH MASCARA ON YOUR FACE!
WHERE DID YOU LEARN TO
WALK IN HEELS , HARRY?
WHERE DID YOU LEARN TO
GLOSS THOSE LIPS?
WHAT HAPPENED TO YOUR TIMBERLANDS?
THAT PARKA WITH THE HOOD?
BEFORE YOU HAD YOUR COLORS DONE
YOU USED TO LOOK SO GOOD!

WHEN DID YOU GET TO
BE SO FEMME, HARRY?
WHATEVER MADE YOU
PERM YOUR HAIR?
YOUR FINGER NAILS ARE SCULPTED
AND YOUR PANTIES MATCH YOUR BRA,
ANY MINUTE YOU'LL BE SINGIN'
QUE SERA,SERA!
WHERE DID YOU LEARN
TO SHAVE YOUR LEGS, HARRY?
WHAT DO YOU HAVE
INSIDE THAT PURSE?

HOW MANY LITTLE ANIMALS DIED
SO YOU COULD PAINT YOUR FACE?
YOU USED TO CARRY A FORTY-FIVE
AND NOW YOU CARRY MACE.
WHERE DID YOU LEARN TO START
YOUR KAWASAKI WITH SUCH GRACE?
HARRY, SAY IT CAN'T BE TRUE.
HARRY IS IT REALLY YOU?

WHAT HAPPENED TO THE HARRY
THAT THE WOMEN ALL ADORE?
YOUR MAKE-UP IS UNEVEN
AND YOUR FEET LOOK REALLY SORE.
DO YOU REALLY THINK
YOU'LL FIND A LOVER
LOOKING LIKE SUCH A WHORE?
WHAT'S A MODERN
DYKE TO DO?
HARRY, IS IT REALLY,
HARRY, IS IT REALLY,
HARRY, IS IT REALLY YOU?
