Mom was a rebel, she never conformed
To dainty, effeminate, social norms
Mom took me to visit my grandma one day
A boy shocked to discover when I found my way
This tale tells a story, only very few know
Of the depths behind walls that never did show
Mom's old room
Surprises were found
Mom's old room
No limits or bounds
In mom's old room
Mom's old room seemed frozen in time
Full of remnants, a life, she'd left far behind
A vanity, makeup, closets of dresses
All things a suburban princess possesses
The room was closed up, tight like the tomb
Of a girl her mom hoped for that never would bloom
Mom's old room
A new world was there
Mom's old room
A girl's dream none compared
In mom's old room
Shocked, yes I was but much more to share
Stood there a dresser full of fine underwear
Lace corsets and bras satin slips and some tights
Pajamas and nightgowns to wear in the night
The life grandma selected my mom had rejected
And left it behind, not what grandma expected
Mom's old room
She left it behind
Mom's old room
No idea what I'd find
In mom's old room
I took off my clothes my heart beating fast
Nervous this treasure hunt would not last
Pulled up some thin panties over my hips
Reached into the drawer and picked a white slip
I looked in the mirror, I was impressed
Then chose some stockings and closet, a dress
Mom's old room
Is where I found peace
Mom's old room
She was finally released
In mom's old room
Dresses in line, some blue as the sky
A pink and a red, but one caught my eye
A prom dress I chose, laid out on the bed
Worried grandma might enter, thoughts in my head
It was dainty and frilly, soft and ornate
And when on, I felt like the queen on her date
Mom's old room
I was finally me
Mom's old room
I was finally free
In mom's old room
A wig that I'd found, high heels for my feet
This transformation was finally complete
Back to the mirror what a sight for sore eyes
I may have been homely, but truth was the prize
I went to the window didn't care who might look
By that time I knew I was already hooked
I was finally the girl I wished I could be
Mom's old room it seemed was the whole world to me
