Heavens to Betsy - My Red Self lyrics

what is the color, the color of shame? is it red? is it blood, blood red?

does it creep out from my two legs, up to my face, if you notice the stain?

never wear white or your shame will creep thru.

never wear white or your shame will creep right thru.

is this the rag you use to humiliate me, cuz I was born, I was born a girl?

is this the rag you use to humiliate me cuz I was born, I was born to bleed.

never wear white, or your shame will creep thru.

never wear white or your shame will creep right thru.

what is the color, the color of shame? I know it's red. I know its blood, blood red.

is this the period too long, too strange for you to understand?

so you make me hide the truth from you!

so you make me hide my red self from you!

uh uh uh oh, uh oh. uh uh uh oh, uh oh.
