sonnerie téléphone portable pour Half a man

This big old queen was standing
On the corner of the street
He waved his hanky at me
As i went rolling by
I pulled the truck up on the sidewalk
And i climbed down from the cab
With my tire-chain and my knife
As i approached him
He was trembling like a bird
I raised the chain above my head
He said, "please, before you kill me
Might i have one final word?"
And this is what he said:
"i am but half a man,
Half a man i'd like to be a dancer
But i'm much too large
Half a man, half a man
I'm an object for your pity
Not your rage"
Oh, the strangest feeling's sweeping over me
Both my speech and manner have become much more refined
I said, "oh, what is this feeling?
What is wrong with me?"
She said, "girl, it happens all the time "
And you are half a man,
Half a man look,
You're walking and you're talking like a fag."
Half a man,
I am half a man holy jesus, what a drag
