“And I won't be laughing at the lies when I'm gone
And I can't question how or when or why when I'm gone
Can't live proud enough to die when I'm gone
So I guess I'll have to do it while I'm here.”

'Hold on… There! Now I'm female.'

Alex burst out laughing. 'I'm kidding. Yes, I'm female today. She and her.”
