Androgynous lyrics - Ben Lee & Georgia Maq

(originally by The Replacements)

Here comes Dick, he's wearing a skirt
Here comes Jane, y'know she's sporting a chain
Same hair, revolution
Same build, evolution
Tomorrow who's gonna fuss?

And they love each other so
Androgynous
Closer than you know, love each other so
Androgynous

Don't get him wrong and don't get him mad
He might be a father, but he sure ain't a dad
And she don't need advice that'll center her
She's happy with the way she looks, she's happy with her gender

And they love each other so
Androgynous
Closer than you know, love each other so
Androgynous

Mirror image, see no damage
See no evil at all
Kewpie dolls and urine stalls will be laughed at
The way you're laughed at now

Now, something meets Boy, and something meets Girl
They both look the same, they're overjoyed in this world
Same hair, revolution
Unisex, evolution
Tomorrow who's gonna fuss
And tomorrow Dick is wearing pants
And tomorrow Janie's wearing a dress
Future outcasts and they don't last
And today, the people dress the way that they please
The way they tried to do in the last centuries

And they love each other so
Androgynous
Closer than you know, love each other so
Androgynous

(Androgynous)

Desire lyrics - Ben Lee

I gotta go in
If I ever wanna come out alive
Will I survive this
I want, I want, I want
I want, I want, I want

Desire, Desire, Desire
Desire, Desire, Desire

Close to the edge
This is a dream I had when I was young
So young
You taking me over
I want, I want, I want
I want, I want, I want

Desire, Desire, Desire
Desire, Desire, Desire

I want, I want, I want you

I've gotta let gou
If I wanna keep holding on

Desire, Desire, Desire
Desire, Desire, Desire

Dreidels Of Fire lyrics - Ben Lee

(originally by Adam Green)

When Judah and the Maccabees reclaimed the second temple
They lit the menorah using all the oil they had
Now get this: there was only enough oil for one night
But the menorah burned for eight nights straight

How the fuck do you explain that shit?
How the fuck do you explain that shit?

It was the greatest miracle of all time
I mean I know there was a talking, burning bush
And God parted the Red Sea
We talking about one night's worth of oil burnt for eight nights straight

How the fuck do you explain that shit?
How the fuck do you explain that shit?
How the fuck do you explain that shit?
Dreidels of fire

Spun a dreidel with my love
She took half, she gave me none
I bet she really cares about Hanukkah
Yeah, dreidels of fire

I'm not a rich man but I got some gelt
I'm feeling handsome like Judah felt
But Hanukkah she hurt me when she gimmeled me, again
Dreidels of fire, yeah

She turned my festival of lights
Into a festival of pain
If you need me
I'll be spinning my dreidel
In a corkscrew motion in a dark expanse
Dreidels of fire, yeah
Dreidels of fire
Dreidels of fire
Dreidels of fire, yeah

Lovers lyrics - Ben Lee

To all the lovers you remember
To all the lovers that you don't
To all the lovers that told you
They were taking you home

To all the lovers who kissed you
To all the lovers that you touched
To all the lovers that were gentle
To those that were rough

There goes Charlotte with a boombox
There goes Steven with his cane
To all the lovers that left you
Just a little bit changed

There goes Lisa with her motorcycle
There goes Ian with his gun
To all the lovers that were in loves
For a whole lot of fun

To all the lovers who would doubt you
To all the lovers that believed
This is a song for all the lovers
That brought you to me

There goes Angie she's a sculptor
There goes Edward he's from France
To all the lovers that would spin you
When you wanted to dance

To all the lovers that you hate now
And to the ones who became friends
This is a song for all the lovers
Who taught you things end

To all the lovers that you mentioned
And the secret ones you keep
This is a song for all the lovers
That brought you to me

This is a song for all the lovers
That brought you to me

Tuck Shop lyrics - Ben Lee

Head down hands in your pocket
In front of the class while you tremble in fear
All the facts you've forgotten
Wondering how did you find yourself here?
You were born beneath an open sky
First breath was breathing fire
It wasn't easy but you never told a lie

Do you remember? you were so clever
Wearing your favorite shirt to school
Under your sweater, popping your collar
Giving them clues that you were cool
Cold at the bus stop alone at the tuck shop
Wandering home day after day
We all learn to stand apart
In our own way
In our own way

Eyes down what are you thinking?
Your folks aren't around while we tremble in fear
We're gonna need some forgiving
Wondering how did we find ourselves here?
We were born before the stars aligned
Before the starting line
We had our problems but we never told a lie

Do you remember? warm in December
Taking your shirt off by the pool
Up by the tram line, after your bedtime
Praying to god they'll think you're cool
Cold on the rooftop, in line at the tuck shop
All of your secrets on display
We all learn to stand apart, in our own way

Do you remember? you were so clever
Wearing your favorite shirt to school
Under your sweater, popping your collar
Giving them clues that you were cool
Cold at the bus stop, alone at the tuck shop
Wandering home day after day
We all learn to stand apart
We all learn to stand apart

Do you remember? warm in December
Taking your shirt off by the pool
Up by the tram line, after your bedtime
Praying to god they'll think you're cool
Cold on the rooftop, in line at the tuck shop
All of your secrets on display
We all learn to stand apart
We all learn to stand apart
We all learn to stand apart
In our own way
In our own way

We all learn to stand apart
We all learn to stand apart
We all learn to stand apart
In our own way
