Intro: 
G      D      Em     C 
 
Verse: 
G                     D 
Here comes Dick, he's wearing a skirt 
Em                             C 
Here comes Jane you know she's sportin' a chain 
G 
Same hair, a revolution 
D 
Same build, evolution 
Em                   C 
Tomorrow who's gonna fuss? 
         D                   C      G 
And they love each other so, androgynous 
D                     C 
Closer than you know, love each other so, androgynous 
 
Well don't get him wrong, and don't get him mad 
He might be a father but he sure ain't a dad 
And she don't need the advice that is sent to her 
She's happy with the way she looks, she's happy with her gender 
And they love each other so, androgynous 
Closer than you know, love each other so, androgynous 
 
Bridge: 
C                                           Em 
Mirror image, see no damage, see no evil at all 
C                                    Em 
Cupie dolls and urine stalls will be laughed at 
               D 
The way you're laughed at now 
 
Something meets boy and something meets girl 
They both look the same, they're overjoyed in this world 
Same hair a revolution 
Unisex evolution 
Tomorrow who's gonna fuss? 
 
And tomorrow Dick is wearing pants, 
Tomorrow Jane is wearing a dress 
Future outcasts and they don't last 
And today people dress the way that they please 
They way they tried to do in the last centuries 
 
And they love each other so, androgynous 
Closer than you know, love each other so, androgynous
