Lyrics
You say you see what's under me

That the gloss has washed away

But you're the one whose colour's gone

From love to dirty grey

Questions come alive in the middle of the day

Over and over again

Watch me start a fire in the middle of your shade

That's why I'm telling you I'm gonna



Kiss you off my lips

I don't need another tube of that dime store lipstick

Well I think I'm gonna buy me a brand new shade of man

Kiss you off my lips

It's standing room only for a piece of my pigment

So excuse me a minute while I supply demand

Kiss you off these lips of mine

Kiss you off for a custom shine

Pissed yours truly off this time

It's why I ain't just kissin' you I'm kissin' you off



Spare this child your sideways smile

That crack in your veneer

Some blue broad will spoil your rod

It just takes patience dear

They rush you for your life

But you'll never beat the game

Older and older you get

Crush you like a gyre

But the gimble's all the same

Oh no I think it's happening



Kiss you off my lips

I don't need another tube of that dime store lipstick

Well I think I'm gonna buy me a brand new shade of man

Kiss you off my lips

It's standing room only for a piece of my pigment

So excuse me a minute while I supply demand

Kiss you off these lips of mine

Kiss you off for a custom shine

Pissed yours truly off this time

It's why I ain't just kissin' you I'm kissin' you off

Having some trouble viewing. I think the video is private rather than password protected? :(

[(Anonymous)]

aaaah what a silly mistake, it should be working now!

[revolutionaryjo]

It is indeed! And it's great! What a fantastic song choice to go with this source. It's so well edited, and that last little shot of Lola skipping down the boulevard is the perfect end note. :D

[kaydeefalls]

Gah, I am SO excited to see this as soon as the vid is set to not private! THE SUSPENSE. <3

[(Anonymous)]

oh my god, I am SO SORRY, I had no idea it was on private! It should work now with the password Festividz, please let me know if it doesn't! So sorry you had to wait!

[kaydeefalls]

SO WORTH THE WAIT! This is fabulous in every way. Great song choice, so beautifully illustrates everything that is Lola. I love this, thank you so much!

[kaydeefalls]

OMG IT IS YOU

IT WAS YOU THIS WHOLE TIME

EVERYTHING IS AWESOME

[anoel]

Awww I really enjoyed this vid! Such a great ending :) I need to see this movie now!

[cupidsbow]

That is some impressive footwear. Fabulous vid. :)

[heresluck]

I love Lola, and this vid reminds me why. ♥

[jb_slasher]

LOLA FUCK YEAH! <3

[sasha_feather]

Very cute!

[nicole_anell]

AAAAH this was so, so perfect and well edited! I've actually seen the Broadway musical of Kinky Boots but never the movie. Excellent vid for Lola, facing judgment & bigots and remaining fabulous. The dancing at 0:58 and the last shot made me so happy. I really like how you used the interactions with Nick Frost's character, and the shift to her relationship with Charlie in the second verse. Really great vid!

[fairestcat]

Great music choice, I really enjoyed this!

[bingeling]

I really need to see this source. That was wonderful!

[sanguinity]

I obviously need to meet Lola!

[no_detective]

Yay, LOLA!!! I especially like the progression of relationships with other characters, and that echoed scene of skipping in heels down the boardwalk. And the song selection is brilliant!

[echan]

YAY!!! So lovely and strong and flirty and wonderful.

I'm finally making my way through this year's Festivids (better late than never, right?), and I just wanted to say that you did an absolutely terrific job on this vid!

(Also, I'm kind of glad that my attempt at making it for last year's CVV crashed and burned, because you pulled it off so much better than I ever could have done. ♥)
