Let me Frank
Or let me be David
Ace from the womb
Inoculated
Hitting home runs with a bat made of steel
Giving high fives and slapping asses
Let me be Meghan
Or let me be Sarah
Top of their class in
hatha yoga
Planking the earth with their abs made of steel
Flexible girls saluting the sun, saluting the sun
I wanna be Sarah
I wanna be David
I wanna be a stud who can do the splits
I wanna be Megan
I wanna be Frank
I wanna be made of steel
May I be kind
And may I be patient
To the gut in my pants
And the junk in my basement
I’ll get my shit together this coming Monday
But first I’m gonna watch some tv
Your elbows and knees dry as a desert
My grandmother used to say to me
She’d rub them down with cold nivea cream
Before I could wear my favourite dress
I wanna be thin
I wanna be graceful
I wanna to be tidy and I wanna rich
I wanna be humble, but I want my skin to be shiny and wet like a seals’
My mother said to pay no mind to Meghan
And go make friends with Sarah
You never needed braces so wave a smile
And show them how nice your teeth are
She told me to go play ball with David
Go take your wooden bat
The bat is too heavy for me to carry
She said not to worry
She said
Swing with that wooden bat and hit a single
Swing with a wooden bat and hit a single
There may be no fireworks, but little by little
You’ll be the champion
Swing with that wooden bat and hit a triple
Swing with a wooden bat and hit a triple
There may be no fireworks, but little by little
You’re gonna make it home
