    When you made the comment "maybe she's transgender" you should have followed that train of thought with the rest of the lyrics. Trust your instincts.

      Nah. The guy in the song named Lola is a transvestite i.e. a man who likes to dress up as a woman. This is not what we think of today as a transgender woman which back then would be called a transsexual.

      @@Vinterfrid transgender doesn't have to involve surgery. Medical technology doesn't define gender, and it wasn't available at the time of the song. There were and still are people who identify with the opposite gender 24/7 without surgery. Crossdressing and transvestite are two completely different things.

    The Kinks were a classic 1960s British band that shadowed the times, the style and the music revolution of true British music. Love it. Just my stuff. Anyway nice to see you back in blue ! all we need is a few chickens and a mad goat.

    That's the original version you played. Funnily enough this was initially band by the BBC in the UK. Not because of the Trans lyrics but because originally the song said "we drank Coca Cola" and the BBC did not allow advertising or product placement. So the Kinks produced a version which substituted Coca Cola for Cherry Cola.

    The clues.
    "She walked up to me and she asked me to dance" In the "old" days, women would not ask a man to dance: men would do the asking.
    "I asked her her name in a dark brown voice she said Lola". Not a sweet feminine voice, but a dark brown voice.
    "I'm not the world's most physical guy, but when she squeezed me tight she nearly broke my spine oh my Lola".
    "I'm not dumb but I can't understand why she walks like a woman but talks like a man oh my Lola."
    "She picked me up and sat me on her knee, said to me boy won't you come home with me".
    "I'm not the world's most masculine man, but I know what I am and I'm glad I'm a man, and so's Lola"

      The first clue is the first line, "old Soho" was a gay district, also drank Champagne tasted like cola, meaning nothing is as it seems

    Lola may be transgender or transvestite: "Transgender is defined as the person or group of individuals who do not agree to their original gender and are more interested in the ways and actions of the other gender. Transvestite is defined as people who like to dress up like the opposite sex, and it can be said that the word is exclusive to men who like to dress up like a woman."

      Hey Ray J. Lola was a prostitutes who did ask Ray Davies to dance. Ray did say Lola was beautiful, but declined her invitation. Lola proceeded to get into a cab with a heavily intoxicated Kinks manager Robert Wace/ The 2 went to Ray's apartment. The next morning when Ray arrived home. Robert and Lola were dancing. Ray noticed that Lola had stubble and needed a shave. He advised Robert that Lola was a transvestite .Bur Robert was too drunk to care. Please understand Ray, in 1970 'Transgenderism' was not an option. There were 'Drag Queen's (who were usually performers) and Transvestites' (who were usually prostitutes'. Just adding some historical content Sorry for the ramble Brother, RNB
