Produced By Devonté Hynes



[Spoken Intro: Montage of clips from Paris is Burning]

Unidentified Woman:

...later because of the fact that we're waiting for the working girls to get there


Director Jennie Livingston:

And what is it those girls are doing?

Unidentified Woman:

Well, they're making money for the balls, or they're making their costumes, their outfits, or you know getting, getting it together like that


Livingston:

What is their profession?


Venus Xtravaganza:

Something like that.. At times they do expect sexual favors, but that is between myself and them. So I do not wish to further speak about that. If they do, but at most times 99% of the time they don't. 95% of the time they don't...

[Verse 1 - Blood Orange]

Dance cause it's your thing


Say that you got time for two

This is me in New York

(Desirée)


Is anyone your friend?

Or lovers that turn up at 2

I cannot stay in New York

(Desirée)


[Hook - Blood Orange]

Can you really think it's fine or cool when you're still on your go?

Maybe it's a chance for me to go and finally be alone

Can you really think it's fine or cool when you're still on your go?

Maybe it's a chance for me to go and finally be alone


[Spoken Interlude: Venus Xtravaganza]

If you marry a woman in the suburbs... A regular woman is married to her husband, and she wants him to buy her a washer and dryer set. In order for him to buy that, I'm sure she'd have to go bed with him anyway to give him what he wants, for her to get what she wants. So in the long run, it all ends up the same way
