Ballad of the Sailor Suit

by Erin Halfelven

 
Fighting Sailors in the sky,
Too cute to live, too young to die.
In ribbons and bows and high-heeled boots,
Fighting evil in their Sailor Suits.

No boobies yet, on their narrow chests,
They're just girls, they've got no breasts.
A dozen or so in their high-heel boots,
So brave and cute in their Sailor Suits.

Trained to use such powers grand,
With a gesture of a delicate hand,
And a word or two, in a voice so cute,
Silly but sweet, in a Sailor Suit.

Pretty Soldiers in the sky,
They may get cancelled but they can't die
Still in reruns and high heel boots
They'll fight on in their Sailor Suits.

They fought crooks, many and myriad
But they'll have to quit when they have their period,
So far about boys, they don't give a hoot,
And they won't yet stain their Sailor Suits.

Bunny is sweet though she's not too bright,
Still she always wins when she's over her fright,
With a wave and a wink and a voice so cute,
Too silly to live, in a Sailor Suit.

Come join the Sailors of the Sky.
It's not too late if you give it a try,
You know you'll love to feel so cute,
With ribbons and bows on your Sailor Suit.

Put a Sailor Suit over that boy's chest,
It won't matter, that he has no breasts,
He'll learn to love his high heel boots,
And he'll look so sweet in a Sailor Suit.

Pretty boys who'd rather be girls,
And wear long hair done up in curls,
Or a ponytail would look so cute
When you wear it with your Sailor Suit.

I so wanted a sailor suit!

I think there was a japanese season that never played here where at least one boy was part of the sailor scouts.

BCTS Fund Raising Opportunity

Another way to raise funds for BCTS would be to find a small clothing company and have them produce a custom line of "SAILOR SUITS", "MAID UNIFORMS" and "PRINCESS GOWNS" for sale (exclusively) through BCTS!

I knew the tune 1/2 way thru the first line.
How do you come up with these ?

Not sure about sailors...

But if I remember right there were some "higher powers" who were female, but usually presented male. And some who was male but usually presented as female. Also there were couple of characters who were ambiguous all of the time so no one have any idea if they are male or female.
Strangely half of the characters I remember from the time when I watched TV are missing from the wiki page list of characters... Maybe I need to organize a rerun of the series for myself. (but there is a Sailor Uranus who is listed as masculine acting and speaking girl. And she had a girlfriend).

PS: Funny... I clicked a link to reply to Dorothy's comment just above... Why my comment was placed here - I have no idea...
PPS: Rhymed lines in such a number do a number over me... I started to talk in rhymed sentences :-)

Sailor Stars

And they weren't boys, but literally were trans girls, aka they used the old adage boy body girl soul. Like it was pretty interesting from what I've read and seen (which isn't much sadly)

I know who I am, I am me, and I like me ^^

I though so !

I just didn't want to piss them off by suggesting that. "Your a braver sole than I am, Gunga Dinn."

Congrats; LOVE song parodies! And one of the characters I play in my show is "Sailor Belle", twin blonde ponytails and all.

"All the world really is a stage, darlings, so strut your stuff, have fun, and give the public a good show!" Miss Jezzi Belle at the end of each show

BE a lady!

Sailor Suit

Very cute, Erin!

Speaking strictly for myself (and maybe a few others) I'd look like Sailor Uranus in of of those things. ;)
