Album: Kafka (1996)
LYRICS:
Countertenor:
The night above the street hung like a cloak
The black ribbons of rain began to soak
And Mary Magdalene cracked a joke
Lost among the scriptures that she wrote
Johnny Apollo before the change
Chaos of regrets a human cage
In Georgiana Street Camden Town
(The years of shame were cut away)
The buses and the cabs are slowing down
(That change each moment of this day)
Girl:
Look at me, see what I've become
Look at me, feminine
Look at me, see what I've become
Look at me, I'm feminine, feminine
Countertenor:
He kneels above the line as if to pray
Take him to the hills above the bay
Mechanical pianos fill his head
(I'm proud of being so feminine)
Another year like this and he'll be dead
(The snake that shed it's final skin)
Baritone and Tenor:
I'M NOT THE GIRL I WANT TO BE
I'M NOT SUPPOSED TO BE LIKE ME
THE BOY WILL NOT BECOME A MAN
APOLLO'S GOT ANOTHER PLAN
(Instrumental)
Girl:
Look at me, see what I've become
Look at me, I'm feminine
Look at me, see what I've become
Look at me, I'm feminine, feminine
Look at me, touch my skin
Look at me, I'm feminine
Look at me, touch my skin
Look at me, I'm feminine,
feminine, feminine,
feminine, feminine, feminine
Countertenor:
The night above the street
hangs like a cloak
Black ribbons of rain began to soak
Johnny Apollo a man no more
The years of pain were cut away
(I'M NOT THE MAN I WAS BEFORE)
That change each moment of this day
(I'M NOT THE MAN I WAS BEFORE)
The woman in your life your God your soul
