lyrics

Last time my lyrics had me fly as I grew a pair of wings
Now it just seems like they’re shrivelled and atrophied

TF may seem like a subject best saved for the grotty web
But it applies to my journey and what I now need

What will I become
Maybe something cute
Maybe something round
Or someone good
Either way

Change come quick
Change come soon
Change come raise me from my tomb
Make sure my form ain’t dead and pale

Change come quick
Change come free
Change you better not cost me
A happy life is not a sale

Piggy in writing lets me maximise who I used to be
Fishy in rammy lets me love where I wanna go

Raykin in crywank makes bridges between my fancies and hers
Badger in peri and ame taps into mine

What will I become
Maybe something dumb
Maybe something slow
Or someone fun
Either way

Change come quick
Change come soon
Change come raise me from my tomb
Make sure my form ain’t dead and pale

Change come quick
Change come free
Change you better not cost me
A happy life is not a sale
