lirik lagu the football club – how to build a girl
[verse 1]
i was out with some transgender friends, we were having a real nice time
when a bunch of cishet d-ckhead boys yelled at us from behind
and as the smell of their lynx africa wafted from every pore
i said, “oh no, toto, we’re not in transas anymore”
i sat down at my computer, i was feeling pretty d-mn sh-tty
so i googled “21 year old trans girl” to know there’s people just like me
but all i got was death tolls and p-rno sites tattooed across my screen
and there’s quite a great deal more than that i think i wanna be
[chorus]
so stand up straight and say the wrong things in the right fashion
and walk this way, do all that’s in your power not to draw a stare
or show the ones that you love you that you’re hurt
i’m just a product of the world, trying to build a girl
[verse 2]
midnight, trying to hail in a cab in ripped stockings and a dress
when a west footscray police car parked in front of me instead
and they asked me what a girl like me was doing selling s-x
it took ten minutes of “it’s just a joke” before they finally left
yeah, i’ve got cuts all over my body, shaving head to toe each week
i’ve got blisters on both my ankles from size 8 heels on size 12 feet
i just wanna be 100% myself and nothing less
so baby, tell me how my c-ck looks in this brand new kmart dress?
[chorus]
the kids from school will say, “i should have got that f-ggot when i had the chance”
and, “doesn’t he know he still looks just like a man?
i wouldn’t even f-ck him, it, or her”
i’m just a product of the world, trying to build a girl
[verse 3]
they screamed at us on every train, every tram and every bus
you stared into me, eyes full of tears, “why do they hate us so much?”
and how the f-ck are we to prosper in a world that’s so messed up?
and how the f-ck are we to survive in a world that’s trying to k!ll us?
sometimes i think about the life i might have had in brisbane
if i stayed inside, if i never transitioned
yeah, i might be fine, but since you helped me realise
that i needed to try, i haven’t tried to die
