I don't ever want a proper job
I'm insecure but I cover it up
Read books and poetry
I'm lonely
Windmill arms, smacking my ass
Dancing round and having a laugh
Modesty is too easy
I'm lovely
That's why I'm a ponce
I'm broken but never bent
Attract the scorn of real men
Poverty is killing me
Slowly
That's why I'm a ponce
More blouses than your Auntie Sheila
More flowers than your friend Georgina
More potions than a witch teenager
More make-up than your old French teacher
More spinning than a ballerina
More laughing like a pissed Hyena
More kissing than a spy deceiver
That's why I'm a ponce
It's dandy to live like this
But not as easy as it seems
Takes application to take the piss
To follow cacoethe
That's why I'm a ponce
That's why I'm a PERFUMED PONCE
