Tried to be your son and daughter rolled into one

You said you'd equal any man for having your fun

Now didn't you feel surprise to find

The cap just didn't fit?

The world expects a man

To buckle down and to shovel shit



What'll you do for loving

When its only just begun?

I want you to be a woman



Tried to be a teacher and a fisher of men

An equal

Will you lead us all the same?

Well I travelled around the world

To find a brand new word for day

Watching the time mustn't linger behind

Pardon me I have to get away

What'll you think of heaven

If it's back from where you came?

I want you to be a woman
