lyrics

Daydreaming in Republic Square
to the sound of a busker's guitar
fingering "The Second Sex"
by Simone de Beauvoir

Over my shoulder a shadow appears
throwing shade over my ideals
like a heretic

Staggering through the lazy crowd
when you suddenly catch my eye
admiring your tartan skirt
Mary Janes and white knee-highs

Your appearance is so devout
but I've concluded beyond any doubt
that you're a heretic

For a heretic I've been blessed
with an ability to detect b.s.
I'm a sensitive soul
you're an asshole
it's nice to meet you

Piously you shut your book
leaving my manhood smashed

Trying hard to salvage the rest
of the afternoon you've crashed

Why do you repudiate me
berate and excommunicate me
like a heretic?

For a heretic you've been blessed
with a quality that women detest
I'm a feminist queen
you're a libertine
it's nice to meet you

(J. Lewis)
