tracksuits and worksuits
sneakers and boots
dyes and haircuts
I know you sometimes hate seeing me with those
so I'll try to be a 'lady' for you, as you put it
I do know how to change the light bulbs
but I will let you do it
I know I can trim those trees
but I will let you do the garden
even though I can move the couch, cupboards
bed and wardrobe,
I'll pretend not to handle the weight
so you can move them for me
I will try to cry at least once or twice a month
so you can be my knight and shining armour
as you hold me and comfort me
I will wear those bright coloured clothes
so that a difference can be spotted between you and I
as you'd be wearing your dark colours
I will also try not to forget my manicures
I will pretend to be scared of spiders
and other creepy crawlies
so you can find me more attractive
I can take care of myself
but I will let you do it
I will try to understand your aggressive behaviour
and not intervene
but calm you down with a massage
and a cold one from the fridge
I will try to be more feminine
so you can appear more masculine
yes, I will give you a chance to be a man,
by being your lady
the lady you want
