Becoming Wendy

My parents named me Charles

But I envied the girls

I wondered what it'd be like to be one

Named after a King

They didn't suspect a thing

When my Dad found out that he had raised a Queen

Of course he didn't understand

And he thought that I was fooling around

You must never tell another soul that you feel like this

I'm becoming Wendy

With my high heels on and the spotlight in my eyes

You could be my biggest fan

Yeah you're damn right I'm the man

I can't wait to be Wendy again

The times that I got hit

And called a piece of shit

Well fuck you at least I know who I am

Crying in my dress

My make up all a mess

Don't apologise, the problem isn't yours

But it's still a big weight to bear

And it's not like I even care

Ready girls, the show's about to start

I'm becoming Wendy

With my head held high and the spotlight in my eyes

You could be my biggest fan

Yeah you're damn right I'm the man

I can't wait to be Wendy again

It's not just my Dad that thinks I'm a freak

Though I'm twice the man that he'll ever be

An ironic shame

Let's not debate if it's wrong or right

Cause I'm only real under those lights

And the cheers and the roars, the rounds of applause

Ladies and Gentleman please raise a glass for Wendy

Please raise a glass for Wendy

You could be my biggest fan

Yeah you're damn right I'm the man

With my feathered wings above me

Nobody can hurt me

Pleased to meet you

Hi, my names Wendy
