Rachel update 11-Jun-2017: I've been meaning to update this post for a long time! Even before I discovered that I was transgender, this song was a part of me. Deep down inside, I had to have known! I had such an affinity for this song. I could just always relate.
Both the original videos that I posted have been blocked. I'm very disappointed that one of those videos had a very nice explanation of how he came up with this song. I can't find that video, there is part of the explanation in the video I marked "live explain".
I just so love this and the image it creates:
The streets are wet
The lights have yet
To shed their tawdry luster on the scene
My skirt's too short
My Tights are run
These new heels are killing me

I love music that paints a vivid scene, tells a story, and makes me feel some deep emotion. This song does all three very well: "The streets are wet. The lights have yet to shed their tawdry luster on the scene..."
