I'm Illegal Songtext
von Team Dresch

I′m afraid walking down the street
Holding hands with my girlfriend
That some cop is gonna arrest me (uh, excuse me, ladies)
Sometimes I think I've even done something wrong

Invite me in, show me around
Make me feel safe

Well, I am illegal


I have this vivid memory of being in a boat with a friend
I was 11, I said, "Girls can′t get married to each other"
I remember thinking how fucked up that was (That is so fucked up!)
You say you have a ban on affection, did I hear you right?

Well, I am illegal

Invite me in, show me around
Make me feel safe

What do you think 'cause I'm not sure
Whether I didn′t get that job (uh, we hired someone else)
Because my hair′s parted on the wrong side
Or because I'm a flaming S&M rubber dyke (whack!)
Woo!

I am illegal
