lyrics

Poking around in hospital gowns
They say that I am a boy, They say that I am a girl
But it means so very little to me
Little little meaning to me

Yeah we made it and we really really made it
I know I grow much slower than the other girls
To think I tricked you in the darkness of a snowstorm
I know that when we’re older, we’ll see better days

Poking around in hospital gowns
They say that I am a boy, They say that I am a girl
But it means so very little to me
Little little meaning to me

What suits me best
In these trials of Middlesex

Looking out of my window
At the whole white world below
Like Emily, Emily Dickinson
Her melancholic face on your T-shirt
Sighing over your bulging chest

I wish that things were better when I left
I wish that I could see you again
Your car sails over Michigan
Searching for Middlesex

Poking around in hospital gowns
They say that I am a boy, They say that I am a girl
But it means so very little to me
Little little meaning to me

What suits me best
In these trials of Middlesex
What suits me best
In these trials of Middlesex

Tonight I will be someone else
Shining over your mermaid charm
Without a clue, sleep in the grass tonight
Find my way through this empty city
Find my way back to Middlesex

Poking around in hospital gowns
They say that I am a boy, They say that I am a girl
But it means so very little to me
Little little meaning to me

What suits me best
In these trials of Middlesex
What suits me best
In these trials of Middlesex
What suits me best
In these trials of Middlesex
What suits me best
In these trials of Middlesex
What suits me best
In these trials of Middlesex
What suits me best
In these trials of Middlesex
