Cover art for I'll Be That Girl lyrics by Barenaked Ladies

I've got a good idea this song is about a guy who falls in love with a girl who happens to be a straight forward lesbian (sort of like Ross' girlfriend in 'Friends' in the early episodes), who has a girlfriend. He's sort of saying well you don't like guys, you like girls, I love you so much, so i'll be that girl. It's a joking sort of song but say a lot about the madness of being in love, like he'd have a sex change! lol The lyric 'If you will not have me as myself Perhaps as someone else' says it all
