"Lady" lyrics
Zoe Saldaña & Mark Ivanir Lyrics
(from "Emilia Pérez" soundtrack)
Lady
You know I only fix the body
Skin, bones, but I will never fix the soul
If he's a he, she'll be a he
If he's a she, she'll be a she
If he's a wolf, she'll be a wolf
If he's the wolf, you'll be his sheep
Lady
I've been a doctor since I'm twenty-four
I fight and fix but never stop the war
Might not always cut through
Lady, will you please tell your Mr. Mistery
Instead of having plastic surgery
He better change ID?
Doctor, I know you did a lot of studies
Doctor, but let me say I disagree
Changing the body changes society
Changing society changes the soul
Changing the soul changes society
Changing society changes it all
Doctor, you better trust my Mr. Mistery
If you had seen what he has shown to me
You'd be a better man
Doctor, you don't know what it's like to be a queen
When you were born to strive and raised to kill
You better dance or die
Ladies and gentlemen and everyone in between
And everybody no one has ever been
I'll never let you down
Doctor (Lady)
I've been a lawyer since I'm twenty-four (I've been a doctor since I'm twenty-four)
Don't want to say what I'm doing this for (I fight and fix but never stop the war)
I'll never be guilty (Might not always cut through, oh-oh)
Doctor (Lady)
I didn't come away to waste your time (Will you please tell your Mr. Mistery)
Changing gender is not an alibi (Instead of having plastic surgery)
You better change your mind (You better change his mind)
You better change your mind (His mind)
You better change your mind (Change his mind)
Your mind
Your mind
Can I meet him?
You know I only fix the body
Skin, bones, but I will never fix the soul
If he's a he, she'll be a he
If he's a she, she'll be a she
If he's a wolf, she'll be a wolf
If he's the wolf, you'll be his sheep
Lady
I've been a doctor since I'm twenty-four
I fight and fix but never stop the war
Might not always cut through
Lady, will you please tell your Mr. Mistery
Instead of having plastic surgery
He better change ID?
Doctor, I know you did a lot of studies
Doctor, but let me say I disagree
Changing the body changes society
Changing society changes the soul
Changing the soul changes society
Changing society changes it all
Doctor, you better trust my Mr. Mistery
If you had seen what he has shown to me
You'd be a better man
Doctor, you don't know what it's like to be a queen
When you were born to strive and raised to kill
You better dance or die
Ladies and gentlemen and everyone in between
And everybody no one has ever been
I'll never let you down
Doctor (Lady)
I've been a lawyer since I'm twenty-four (I've been a doctor since I'm twenty-four)

You better change your mind (Change his mind)
Your mind
Your mind
