The Dresden Dolls – Half Jack Lyrics 18 years ago
hey guys, say.. am I the only person who thinks amanda is a transexual? you know... born male, made woman by hormones and "corrective surgery". her whole body structure, the muscles, the hair, it's all so masculine. and "half jack" is totally about that. she's male from birth but lives as a woman. half biology and half corrective surgery.
"half accidental (birth), half painful instrumental (surgeon's scalpal)".
"and when i let him in i feel my stitches getting sicker" - come on!! stitches? it's so talking about a sex change operation.
and "girl anachronism" also:
"it's just the way the operation made me","the pills that I ate",
"behold the world's worst accident".

I'm not making fun or anything like that. I'm totally serious about that. from the moment I saw amanda and heard the songs, it was absolutly obvious to me. I am from Israel, and this a country which is relatively open with the sexual orientation stuff, and we have a lot of transexual singers. I was really surprised that no one had seen this or thought the same. I'm pretty sure I'm right about that.
