    I was born in the town of Paisley in early 1960
    And placed in the care of an old eternal bachelor
    A strict disciplinarian, a passionate antiquarian
    His collection of myths and legends was spectacular

    As a younger man he'd been to see Japan
    Where a master in a white kimono taught him
    In a shining moment the myth of the bishonen
    The youthful hero doomed to fall like blossom

    And how could I forgive the ugly fugitive
    Who brought me up according to a fantasy?
    For when the old man stared at me
    He drowned in evil beauty
    Thinking of the early death in store for me

    He taught me to be good with words, he bought me ceremonial swords
    And in this way came grace and expertise
    The words were to cut down and to kill the muscle-bound
    The swords to fell my intellectual enemies

    And women should be hated but first impersonated
    Charm, he said, is essential to misogyny
    He taught me how to woo the girls in order to outdo the girls
    And the fun would come when I'd got them to love me

    And how could I resist the old misogynist
    Who brought me up according to a fantasy?
    My softness and fragility
    My feminine grace and delicacy
    Made death himself afraid for me

    And so in time I grew to be blond and beautiful
    Pale and frail, with many male admirers
    I was promised by my father a retainer for a partner
    So loyal that nothing could divide us

    Shocked by my suggestion that I'd rather have a woman
    My stepfather replied I had no choice
    This man would cut his entrails open protecting his bishonen
    He informed me in a solemn, trembling voice

    How could I disobey that surreptitious gay
    Who brought me up according to a fantasy?
    For when the old man stared at me
    He drowned in evil beauty
    Thinking of the early death in store for me

    So me and my retainer encountered many dangers
    On travels through the North and through the South
    We ripped open the bellies of many famous bullies
    And our reputation spread by word of mouth

    In the mountains of Morocco we stopped and shared a bottle
    With a blind old man with a bearded, bandaged face
    And though the sun had sunk and the man was very drunk
    He seemed to speak with my stepfather's voice

    Saying "How could you forget the ageing martinet
    Who brought you up according to a fantasy?
    Your softness and fragility
    Your feminine grace and delicacy
    Will be the death of me"

    Surprised at 28 to find myself so late
    Changing from a boy into a man
    I'm starting to feel guilty that nobody has killed me
    Early as my stepfather had planned

    I've found myself a girl and stopped roaming the world
    My retainer's gone to be a mercenary
    Now I work in a merchant bank, I'm well-liked by the senior ranks
    Though behind my back the juniors call me fairy

    And how can I placate the ugly reprobate
    Who brought me up according to a fantasy?
    For when the old man stared at me
    He drowned in evil beauty
    Thinking of the early death in store for me

    I stay awake some nights when my wife turns off the lights
    And starts breathing regularly next to me
    And I think of fallen petals and bodies pierced by metal
    And how I'll never now fulfill my destiny

    Father spare my shame, let me pass my name
    To a boy with greater beauty and more bravery
    For if I have a son I'm going to raise him to die young
    And lay him in the grave that you prepared for me
