Has anybody here seen a chick called Dick He looks real burly but, he's really hip He's six feet tall and his arms are all brown and hairy Well, he married Betty Lou back in '65 When you had to be butch to survive But lately he's been looking at his wife with mixed emotions You see, he's not a common place closet queen He shouldn't be hidden, he should be seen Cause when he puts on that dress He looks like a princess The day he came out of the wardrobe Betty Lou got quite a surprise She didn't know whether she should get angry or not bat an eye She really couldn't call up her mother Mama would positively die Should she go or stay or should she try to get a trial separation You see, he's not a faggot as you might suppose He just feels restricted in conventional clothes Cause when he puts on that dress He feels like a princess He's not a dandy, he's only living out a fantasy He's not a pansy, he's only being what he wants to be Now his life is rearranged and he's grateful for the change He's out of the wardrobe and he's got no regrets Betty Lou didn't know what to do at first But she's learning how to cope at last She's got the best of both worlds And she's really in a state of elation She says it helps their relationship She says a change is as good as a rest And their friends finally coming 'round to their way of thinking She wears the trousers and smokes the pipe And he washes up She helps him wipe Cause when he puts on that dress He looks like a princess He's out of the wardrobe and he's feeling alright He's out of the wardrobe and he's feeling satisfied Now it's farewell to the past The secret's out at last He's out of the wardrobe and now he's got no regrets
