Gender is a Social Construct

my parents got these notions
of a child's physiometry
they don't seem to get that it's a state of mind

so I set the wheels in motion
I redefined normality
I hit thirteen I let the parts of me combine

I got menses with my moustache
a wet dream with my training bra
an Adam's apple just above my decollete

I don't need your inhibitions
your boxed-in thoughts on who you are
if you're a gender then there's only you to blame

sometimes I gotta shave my face
sometimes I gotta shave my legs
sometimes I think I might be losing all my hair
I wonder if my heels will complement my tie
and match this underwear

I'm gender free
don't label me
don't put boundaries on whom I can be
I've searched the city for a reason to restrict my life
and it always seems to lead
to gender free

at five I'm dreamin bout my car
at nine I'm eatin yogurt bars
at noon I'm playin Sega on my plasma screen
at night I wanna nurture every single guy
and feed them wholesomely

I'm gender free
don't label me
don't put boundaries on whom I can be
I've searched the city for a reason to restrict my life
and it always seems to lead

to gender free
where I can weave
X and Y arbitrarily
if you think my chromosomes are gonna run my life
how backwards you must be
with gender free
where I can be
a compromise in it's apogee
the type of mind that the future's neutered humankind
will look back on and see
a step towards sanity
oh gender free
