The billboard has an image of the famed drag king of West Hollywood, Phil McCockin winking toward those who view it. Across the street, she walks down the sidewalk. She places the fedora on her head to match her sharp business attire. Her name is Dax and tonight, she is the man. The song plays in her head and she cannot help, but sing it out loud, making her way toward destiny.
”Well, you can tell everybody
Yeah you can tell everybody
Go ahead and tell everybody
I’m the man, I’m the man, I’m the man
Yes I am, yes I am, yes I am
I’m the man, I’m the man, I’m the man”
Dax sees the crowd lining up just to see her.
”I believe every lie that I ever told
Paid for every heart that I ever stole”
Marcy, Marnie, and Marti are there, exchanging high fives with her. She then tips her hat to Adele, who is smoking a cigarillo.
”Played my cards and I didn’t fold”
”Well it ain’t that hard when you got soul
This is my world”
Dax passes by Catherine, flicking a Joker card her way.
”Somewhere I heard that life is a test”
Dax nods toward Hunter and Charlotte, who only look on
”I’ve been through the worst, but I still give my best
God made my mold different from the rest”
Uta smiles toward Dax, blood dripping from her lips. Next to Uta is Francesca, favoring her neck.
”Then he broke that mold so I know I’m blessed
This is my world”
Dax finds amusement in that image as she exchanges a quick handshake with Benjamin.
”Stand up now and face the sun
Won’t hide my tail or turn and run”
Lacey passes by Dax, hands in the pockets of her leather jacket.
”It’s time to do what must be done”
Dax looks back for a second before looking forward again, continuing on.
”And be a king when kingdom comes”
Dax sees Chandra, smiling and applauding.
”Well, you can tell everybody
Yeah you can tell everybody”
Dax sees Candace and nonchalantly pulls out her cellphone, taking a photo of her without looking in her direction.
