OK...so I'm with my sister in the normal crappy traffic (well, relativly crappy traffic), and this song comes on. She recognizes it and says that it's all about girl power and achievements of women. And I hear it once. It seems so obvious that it's about transsexuals or cross-dressers or one of the two. Well, i guess you could say it's about both...but that's a fine line. So in your opinion, which is it?
Cherry Lips
by Garbage
She gave you everything she had
But she was young and dumb
She'd just turned twenty-one
She didn't care to hang around
So when the s@!* came down
Why she was nowhere to be found
This life can turn a good girl bad
She was the sweetest thing
That you had ever seen
You're such a delicate boy
In the hysterical realm
Of an emotional landslide
in physical terms
With your cherry lips and golden curls
You could make grown men gasp
When you'd go walking past them
In your hot pants and high heels
They could not believe
That such a body was for real
It seemed like rainbows would appear
Whenever you came near the clouds would disappear
Because you looked just like a girl
Your baby blues would flash
And suddenly a spell was cast
You hold a candle in your heart
You shine the light on hidden parts
You make the whole world wanna dance
You bought yourself a second chance
Go Baby Go Go
We're right behind you
Go baby Go Go
Yeah we're looking at you
Go baby Go GO
Aw we're right behind you
Go Baby
Go Baby
Yeah right behind you
Go baby go baby
So how obviously am I right?
