I Wish I Were a Boy

I wish I were a boy
Not all the time just sometimes

I wish I could put on eyeliner and glitter
And actually look good
And have girls whisper about me in bookshops
Because I look like a character from their favourite book

And I wish I were a boy
With dark fluffy hair
That I love to mess up and shake
And makes everyone stop and stare

And I wish I were a boy
So I'd finally look cute
In dresses and skirts
And pants and suits

And I wish I were a boy
With a deep rock n roll voice
That makes people stop in their tracks
But I don't have that choice

And I wish that I did
Cause every song I write for myself
Never sounds right
Because it was meant to be sung by somebody else

I'm happy being me but sometimes I wonder
What I would be like as the opposite gender
Would I finally be happy being me
Because I like being a girl

But
