This was inspired by I'm Their Girly Goy-Boy , by Andrea Lena which was inspired by my blog on the Who song I'm a boy.
Although Holly Snow did this in 2019

Which I really love
This is my take on it ,I thought I'd reverse the genders.
One boy called Emanuel
Another little boy was Samuel
Another little boy was just called Earl
The other was me, and I'm a girl
My name is Jill, and I'm a trans case
They practice beating up on my face
Yeah, I feel lucky if I get short shorts to wear
They spend evenings cutting off my long hair
I'm a girl, I'm a girl
But my pa won't admit it
I'm a girl, I'm a girl
But if I say I am, I get it
Put your shirt on, Emanuel
Shave your beard, Samuel
Cut your nails, little Earl
I'll kick your ass, you little girl
I'm a girl, I'm a girl
But my pa won't admit it
I'm a girl, I'm a girl
But if I say I am, I get it
I want to play skipping on the green
Paint my nails with a pretty pink sheen.
Take all ma's hormone pills
I want dress up all covered in frills
I'm a girl, I'm a girl
But my pa won't admit it
I'm a girl, I'm a girl
I'm a girl, I'm a girl
etc

And one more for the genderfluid
I can relate to this one better than the original. I'm a girl too :}
So I think we've covered all the bases when it comes to variations on this-
Oh wait! There's one more:
Suzie's just a girly girl
Joe's a rough and tumble guy
Tomboy Jane's androgyous
But what the hell am I?
My name is Zee and I'm an X File
my sense of gender's like a turnstyle
I'm a boy but I'm a girl too
It drives my mama kookoo
I'm nonbinary I'm nonbinary
but my parents don't get it
they tell me pick a gender
and goddamn it stick with it
but how can I decide
when I feel different every minute?
They say don't be such a genderqueer
Get that genderfluid outta here
I haven't picked my pronouns yet
I'm running out of alphabet
I'm nonbinary Im nonbinary etc etc etc.
.
That's a very sloppy spur of the moment first draft and Im not gonna finish it, polish it up + post it as a song since I cant relate to being nonbinary. But I know it's a real and valid thing to be (I'll admit it it, at first I thought they were just trying to be different and get attention like some kind of genderhipsters, but that opinion changed after hearing a few of their stories...) so anyone who identifies as nonbinary can have this song and rewrite it to make it better reflect where they're actually coming from and what they have to deal with as a they/them person...

Hi Veronica, well done. I
Hi Veronica, well done. I takes a while to get the rhyme.
I am more accepting of any label now I'm older. Non-binary does seems to raise hackles on many people. They have just got used to accepting gay people as a "norm". Many struggle with trans. Both of these labels just reverse what they see as normal . They see non-binary as very confusing.
There are so many labels now. I was playing Cards against humanity and saw pansexual octopus , which made me laugh

Meter and rhyme!
Superb. The Who should be thanking you!
Love, Andrea Lena
Thanks, I tried to keep to
Thanks, I tried to keep to the original as much as I could. if you sing to the Who's music it works. Perhaps we should start a group called the Whats or the Why's?

Holly Snow wasn't even the first to parody this on BCTS in 2019
Jennifer Sue had the same idea as part of putting a new story together in January 2019. She provides a full length adaptation of the song as part of her story "Alone Together: A Tuneful Tale" (Story (Part 1)), which is written in the story by her protagonist Earl. While you and Jennifer used the same first name, your sets of lyrics aren't otherwise all that similar (considering that the lyricists had the exact same concept in mind).
I hadn't seen Jennifer's version of it,
until recently, enjoyed it thoroughly. She made a story of it, all I did was rework the lyrics, I'm not quite enough of a writer (yet) to tackle something more.
