[Chorus: Skepta]

Transvestites, more than meets the eye

Transvestites, mandem in disguise

Transvestites, more than meets the eye

Transvestites, mandem in disguise


[Verse 1: Skepta]

You thought it was a girl 'cause he had a handbag

You didn't know it was a next man's grandad

Don't rush into things, rudeboy

Take some more time, check out the jawline

Now you're high off the herb, you bun

So walk away like me, Jme and the Murkle done

Make sure it's a red light, not a blue or purple one

It's called the Red Light District, also known as the Concrete Jungle

You thought you was talking to a girl

You didn't know it was a next man's uncle

That's why I'm warning people

I repeat, I'm warning people

So if you still make the mistake

Don't try and blame it on the New York Diesel


[Chorus: Skepta]

Transvestites, more than meets the eye

Transvestites, mandem in disguise

Transvestites, more than meets the eye

Transvestites, mandem in disguise


[Verse 2: Jme]

They're not girls, they're guys! They're mandem in disguise

They tried it on the sly, with that purple light

And their eyebrows high, like a permanent surprise

Robin Hood can fly, but not these men in tights

I don't blaze, I don't drink, my mind is clear

I know what I think, I see they're lookin' at me in the window

They wanna take man's P

I've got no qualms with your sexuality, but why are you trying to trick me?

When I go home, back to reality

I'm gonna spread the word to the pickney


[Chorus: Skepta]

Transvestites, more than meets the eye

Transvestites, mandem in disguise

Transvestites, more than meets the eye

Transvestites, mandem in disguise


[Verse 3: Jammer]

Don't be fooled by the make up

'Cause it might not be a girl when you wake up

Just because he's got long hair

High heels and a little bit of cleavage, leave it

Look properly, it's needed

Stay away from the mushrooms

You've gotta stay focused, it's needed

And you're gonna be weeded

And you're gonna be running the Red Light District

So beware of the purple lights

Some of those girls ain't girls

If you look properly, you will see they're guys

They're men in disguise

You better open your eyes

If you go in the blue door don't be surprised

They're mandem in disguise


[Chorus: Skepta]

Transvestites, more than meets the eye

Transvestites, mandem in disguise

Transvestites, more than meets the eye

Transvestites, mandem in disguise
