RUFUS AND BEVERLY (Mark Graham) Rufus could play the piano And he drove an American car. He worked nine to sundown In an office downtown To save us from nuclear war. Beverly came from Seattle, Played the mouth harp quite well, so they say. She used to write songs In an old-timey style In hopes she could sell them one day. Rufus and Bev became sweethearts And nature would not be denied. They did the things lovers do under the covers As happy as clams at high tide. Then one morning said Rufus to Beverly, As they lay in the fondest embrace, "Dear, I have to confess With some minor distress There's an issue I fear we must face. "For this body you see here before you Was once more like yours than like mine, And I sought the compliance of medical science To change to the sex masculine." Beverly stared back in amazement, Then said, "Rufus, don't rue what you've done. For I have surrendered a masculine gender For this other more feminine one." So, these lovers went back to their passions, And their passions were scarcely diffused. And the knot was soon tied, though deep down inside, They were ever so slightly confused. Recorded by Bryan Bowers on "For You," 1982, and by the Rude Girls on "Mixed Messages," 1990. filename[ RUFUSBEV MG |
