about

The geo-political climate for trans people has always been fraught and we are more recently being noticeably attacked by legislation. I have experienced similarities between how trans and sick bodies are interpreted. This song is about confronting fears of gender fluidity and sick/disabled folks with the personalization of my body.

lyrics

V1: If I took off my shirt would you say what the fuck is that?
I’d say a lot of money that I didn’t really have.
And I waited twenty years just so I could look like that.
I would have done it sooner, but I didn’t have the cash.

Chorus: What the fuck is. What the fuck is. What the fuck is that?
I’m the what the, what the fuck is, what the fuck is that?

V2: If I took off my clothes would you say what the fuck is that?
I’d say cancer came and changed what I had.
I did not chose my journey. But I’ll rearrange my plans.
I learned where the edge is and all the shapes I am.

Chorus
