grace petrie - black tie كلمات الأغنية

[verse 1]
well, it’s a jungle out there
the year 2018, i didn’t think
we’d still be sorting babies into blue and pink
and all our progress
well, i wonder what it means
that the only girls’ clothes that work for me
turn out to be boyfriend jeans

[pre-chorus]
well, that’s fine
’cause i decline
a narrow set of rules that just don’t work
’cause these red lines
they’re not mine
and if you need me you can find me ironing my shirt

[chorus]
’cause i’m in
black tie tonight
get a postcard to my
year 11 self
in a year 11 h-ll
saying everything’s gonna be
alright
no, you won’t grow out of it
you will find clothes that fit
and the images that f-cked ya
were in patriarchal structure
and you never will surrender
to a narrow view of gender
and i swear there’ll come a day
when you won’t worry what they say
on the labels on the doors
you will figure out what’s yours

[verse 2]
and it’ a bl–dy nightmare
trying to fight this spread of bigotry and fear
that’s uniting piers morgan and germaine greer
and all our progress
yeah, i wonder who it’s for
when i dare to utter that trans lives matter, yeah
and all i got was a terf war

[pre-chorus]
well, that’s fine
’cause i decline
your narrow set of rules, they just don’t work
these red lines
they’re not mine
and if you need me you can find me ironing my shirt

[bridge]
you will figure out what’s yours
and that it’s got
nothing to do with fitting neatly in a box
that was constructed to make it seem
like people come in just two teams
and anything that’s inbetween ain’t good enough
and you will love
and you’ll be loved

[chorus]
and you’re in
black tie tonight
get a postcard to my
year 11 self
in a year 11 h-ll
darling, everything’s gonna be
alright
no, you won’t grow out of it
you will find clothes that fit
and the images that f-cked ya
were in patriarchal structure
no, you never will surrender
to that narrow view of gender
and there’s folks you’ve yet to meet
but you’re exactly up their street
and they’ve been waiting just as long
to hear someone sing this song
and better days are one their way
when it won’t matter what they say
on the labels on the doors
you will figure out what’s yours

[outro]
and girl, you’re gonna be so happy
and girl, you’re gonna be just fine
and girl, you’re gonna be so happy
down the line, down the line

[instrumental outro]
