Hey Girls!
Whooo!
Well, Alright
Ever since I was a little boy, I've always been a little bit different
Than all my friends, especially men. I've always been a bit of a misfit
Other boys were so aggressive, I was just so sensitive
Passionate about arts and crafts, I had so much to give
I never liked football, never played sports
But I loved musical theater of course!
Wouldn't go camping or hunting. The straights
So often misread all of these traits
As being gay, but I'm not gay baby, I'm just a Tomgirl
Ooh!
Maybe it's cuz I was raised by a single mother
Mama taught me 'bout the movies mostly watching costume dramas
I got a taste for playing dress-up, but fighting- Oh! No chance
I played with GI Joes, but all of my stories had romance
Today, I'm much the same but maybe more so I think
At any age given the option of blue, I'll always choose pink
I read fashion magazines for the celebrity gossip
I love America's Next Top Model, my girlfriends won't even watch it
And on my list of guilty pleasures, entered near the top would be
The dashing Hugh Grant acting in romantic comedies
I'm not some odd anomaly, I've gotta be me and he is a Tomgirl
I'm a Tomgirl, baby alright
I'm just a Tomgirl swinging my imaginary braids
I'm a Tomgirl, baby tonight
And if you see me skipping down your street
Give me a thumbs up, and I'll be like sweet
Give me a high-five, step aside I'll be on my way
I'm a Tomgirl, baby okay
And I cry, oh my God how I cry
At the drop of every dime
It's like I'm crying all the gosh darn time
But I don't really mind, baby
It's fine, cuz I'm a Tomgirl
(Ladies & Gentleman, on the organ solo: Mr. Dave Famous)
And when I feel dour, I do a thing that seems silly
I send myself flowers, my faves are stargazer lilies
My whole apartment smells like lavender, after I dream about going out
In a ponytail and tanktop with a bra-strap showing
No one claims that I'm a women in the body of a man
But that said, I tend to favor all of my transgendered fans
You may ask, why don't you cross-dress I'm sure you'd look cute
I say I do, because the women I want are the one's who wear suits, shoot
I get uncomfortable when people call me mister
Got a girl, and I can't help but kick my toe up when I kiss her
If I had fifty sisters I couldn't be more of a Tomgirl
I'm a Tomgirl, baby alright
I'm just a Tomgirl swinging my imaginary braids
I'm a Tomgirl, baby tonight
And if you see me skipping down your street
Give me a thumbs up, and I'll be like sweet
Give me a high-five, step aside I'll be on my way
I'm a Tomgirl, baby okay
And it's safe to say I'm more than a bit of a feminine touch
I just relate to ladies better than the gentleman and such
And guess what? That's why your girlfriend's love me so much
Cuz I'm a Tomgirl
