Lyrics for Cherry Lips (Go Baby Go!) as interpreted by Metal6Hell6Maker6

Cherry Lips (Go Baby Go!) Lyrics
She gave you everything she had
But she was young and dumb
She'd just turned twenty-one
She didn't care to hang around
So when the shit came down
Why she was nowhere to be found
This life can turn a good girl bad
She was the sweetest thing
That you had ever seen

You're such a delicate boy
In the hysterical realm
Of an emotional landslide
In physical terms

With your cherry lips and golden curls
You could make grown men gasp
When you'd go walking past them
In your hot pants and high heels
They could not believe
That such a body was for real
It seemed like rainbows would appear
Whenever you came near the clouds would disappear
Because you looked just like a girl
Your baby blues would flash
And suddenly a spell was cast

You hold a candle in your heart
You shine the light on hidden parts
You make the whole world wanna dance
You bought yourself a second chance

Go Baby Go Go
We're right behind you
Go baby Go Go
Yeah we're looking at you
Go baby Go GO
Aw we're right behind you
Go Baby
Go Baby
Yeah we're looking at you
Go

This is a great song to listen to...I don't like to listen to the lyrics cause they're talking about this perfect girl and I just don't want to know. But the tune is great :)

I have this odd idea that this song is really about a man, who dresses up like a girl, and who everyone is believing is so beautiful, and Shirley is just finding it great... There's only one line I really can think of that would prove that, which is 'Because you looked just like a girl'.... But that's only an idea.

About a cross-dresser. Look-
"You're such a delicate boy"
"Because you look just like a girl"

This song was written for and inspired by the book "Sarah" written by JT Leroy. Sarah is the story of the prodigal son recast in the carnivalesque world of the highway truck stop and its environs. The narrator, an androgynous twelve year old boy, idolizes his mother Sarah, a "lot lizard," or truckstop whore. He leaves the safety of the lot - a perversely idyllic kingdom ruled by Glading Grateful ETC., a benevolent pimp who sent one of his boys to chef's school to cook gourmet meals at the truckstop diner - on a quest to become as famous as his mother. Adopting her name and sex, "Sarah" stumbles into dangerous and fantastic worlds pocketed away in the West Virginian wilds. He hitches a ride to the famous luck restoring Jackalope, is mistaken for a saint and must prove himself by walking on water. When he is captured by LeLoup, Glad's violent rival, "Sarah's" life is all but over. Will he perish at the hands of LeLoup, or will "Sarah" find his way home?

heh this song didnt really remind me of a crossdresser when i first saw it, rather some blonde bimbo :D (when the shit came down, she was nowhere to be found).

though I like the song, nice beat to it, uplifting too...

i think this song has a deeper meaning- its about someone who hides behind a mask so they can have a second chance at being who they really wanted to be in the first place- adored by others. and the girl in the beginning of the song is a person who hurt this person and thats what kinda sparks the hiding.

"You're such a delicate boy
In the hysterical realm
Of an emotional landslide
In physical terms" also gives a good meaning to your theory. I never rally thought about it until now.

Its about the semi autobigraphical book 'Sarah' by jt leroy. The books about a young boy who cross dresses.

I'm not so sure this songs about just a crossdresser.
"You hold a candle in your heart
You shine the light on hidden parts
You make the whole world wanna dance
You bought yourself a second chance"
Bought yourself a second chance? Light on hidden parts? It sounds like the guy went and got a sex change after going through a confusing and difficult time in his life.

i dont think this song is about a crossdresser!! it seems to me it's about how people sometimes see femaes as weak, but we have power and just because people say ohh he's such a delicate boy doesn't mean he isn't powerful.

Well I think it's about a cross dresser. Or at least someone who used to be a guy but had a sex change and is having some issues.
