Lyrics Loudon Wainwright III

Loudon Wainwright III

X or Y

X or Y, do or die

Pain and joy, it's a girl or a boy

Friend or foe, you'll never know

But it's no lie that it's X or Y

If it's X, a gal is next

But if it's Y, you get a guy

If it's pink or blue, it all comes from you

So you don't have to try because it's X or Y

X or Y, mama's boy, might be her toy

Daddy's girl may rock his world

It's all down to dumb luck, is it doll or a truck?

No, you don't have to cry because it's X or Y

Woman, man, that's the plan

You can't deny that it's X or Y

And I feel like fun but some work's been done

It's not just sex, it's Y or X

X or Y

[Incomprehensible]

You get so stressed but you feel best

I may be cursed but what comes first

Is the girl or the guy, that's right, it's X or Y

Now you can't see but it will be

But if you look, you may get shook

I don't need to shake, I'll have no mistake

The deed is done, you got a daughter or a son

X or Y, do or die

Pain and joy, it's a girl or a boy

Friend or foe, no, you'll never know

But it's no lie that it's X or Y
