“I fell down on my knees” and “I’m a man and so is Lola” doesn’t spell it out for you?

The Kinks were way ahead of their time.

You ain't talking about "Lola" are you?

Couldn't help it - I agree with you and actually have 2 of their albums - and "Lola" as a standalone..

From “20th Century Man”

I was born in a welfare state
Ruled by bureaucracy
Controlled by civil servants
And people dressed in grey
Got no privacy, got no liberty
Cos the twentieth century people
Took it all away from me.

Singing one song about a crossdresser doesn’t make one a fag.

writing and singing songs about giving oral sex to a guy makes one a fag.

Said Davies: “’Lola’ was a love song, and the person they fall in love with is a transvestite. It’s not their fault - they didn’t know - but you know it’s not going to last. It was based on a story about my manager.”
