Girls Who Are Boys Who Like Boys to Be Girls

The previous post brought to mind the following song from my generation.  One of the main ideas in the song is that what truly matters is being (and doing) what (or who) you love--period.

I love good satire, so I choose to think of this song as satirical.  [Warning: Don't watch in front of kids or your grandma]


Boys and Girls, by Blur
Street's like a jungle
So call the police
Following the herd
Down to Greece
On holiday 
Love in the 90's
Is paranoid
On sunny beaches
Take your chances looking for

[Chorus]
Girls who are boys
Who like boys to be girls
Who do boys like they're girls
Who do girls like they're boys
Always should be someone you really love

Avoiding all work
Because there's none available
Like battery thinkers
Count your thoughts on 1 2 3 4 5 fingers
Nothing is wasted
Only reproduced
Get nasty blisters
Du bist sehr schan
But we haven't been introduced

[Chorus]
