Velvet and Lace (and little pink thong)

Startin’ to like velvet and lace
Startin’ to check out
broadway shows

Startin ‘ to use tutti fruiti body wash
Getting’ a lil giddy
pickin’ out new clothes

Getting a closet full of shoes
Losin’ weight
and dressin’ natty

Usin’ words like gorgeous n’ super
Walkin’ mincey
Talkin’ catty

But just because I’m
Startin’ to like Velvet and lace
is no reason to say

That wearin’ frilly pants
And a little makeup on my face
Means I might be turnin’ a lil’ bit gay

I’m still a manly, good ol’ boy
So Don’t be getting’
me wrong

But I just can’t help lookin
In the mirror
When I’m wearing my lil pink thong
