The Dame

Silence your phone keep the flash on
Here's your chance to capture fashion
Snap me up when I blow the mic
Hey, I never met a filter I didn't like
I can slay like Buffy, I can kill like Bill
I'm the mother of drag queens, Khaleesi in heels
But I ain't past it don't think I'm through
I may be older than God, but I'm fiercer than you
I'm a jet-setting bitch
Yeah I'm Ms. TransAtlantic
My wig is in the clouds 'cause my heels are gigantic
I got so many passports I'm the Jason Bourne of drag
And I match my Gucci luggage to my colostomy bag
Say my name, say my name, I'm the mother fuckin' dame
Say my name, say my name, I'm the top of my game
Say my name, say my name, I'm the mother fuckin' dame
Sing it, suck it, all hail the dame
That's right
I'm a dame in Boston, a dame in France
I'd be a dame on Broadway but I can't dance
A dame on the stage, a dame on the streets
When I screw your granddad I'm a dame in the sheets
If I turn your stomach like salmonella
Guess I'm more Acid Betty than Cinder-fuckin-rella
With a motor that runs like a vintage Harley
Ru calls me a dame but you can call me Charlie
A glamasaurus alien I can keep you in stitches
I need shade from the sun, but not from you bitches
So what if I need a tuck, to stay tight and youthful
It's alternative facts baby, I was born to be beautiful
Say my name, say my name, I'm the mother fuckin' dame
Say my name, say my name, I'm the top of my game
Say my name, say my name, I'm the mother fuckin' dame
Sing it, suck it, all hail the dame
(repeat)
Yes, that's right
I play in Paris, Sydney, Berlin and Milano
Some people think I look like Adore Delano
Or Madonna, Cher, Gaga or Miss Fame
But you can call me Charlie, The TransAtlantic Dame
I've learned a thing or three about the world as I've traveled
You can reach for your dreams or watch them unravel
I may be old like spice, well preserved like jam
But you can't keep me down because of who I am
Say my name, say my name, I'm the mother fuckin' dame
Say my name, say my name, I'm the top of my game
Say my name, say my name, I'm the mother fuckin' dame
Sing it, suck it, all hail the dame
