It's such a clever song, they never actually say anything for sure, they give you all the clues and at the end, instead of a big reveal, they leave it to you to decide, "but I know what I am and I'm glad I'm a man and so is Lola", can still be taken two ways. Love The Kinks, great reaction. ❤

Exactly. It's ambiguous. Lola could be glad he's a man, or could also be a man. It is based on a real event with their manager, I think it was. The Kinks and manager were out drinking and the manager got so drunk he didn't know he was dancing with a cross-dresser all night. Didn't care either, was my understanding.

It kinda makes it an evergreen queer-positive song; at the time, of course, it would have been taken to be about someone falling for a cis man in drag and realizing they're gay, but now we understand it could be about a straight man falling for a trans woman, or a straight man falling for a masculine cis woman, or even a man falling for a femme trans MAN and realizing they're some kind of gay, or something. By keeping things ambiguous and playful it becomes a universally applicable portrait of someone realizing they're queer through their first encounter with another queer person, and the power of the music feels like that whole world of endless possibility opening up before you, just as it was starting to open up for the world all those years ago when it was released.

@lauraallen55 I'm not sure I understand what you mean. Lola is a man, whether she was Trans or just like to have the appearance of a woman is debatable. In the song, the main character talks about how he is not a masculine man and had never kissed a woman before. Those lyrics to me translate that perhaps he was deep down a gay man but had never explored the possibility before. When he discovered at whatever part of the evening that she was a man, he wasn't angry. He discussed that it's a mixed up world except his Lola and he wants it to stay that way.

@@firefighterchick 'I'm glad i'm a man and so is Lola' can be interpreted two different ways is all I was saying. I'm glad I'm a man and so is Lola (glad I'm a man). I'm glad I'm a man and so is Lola (Lola is also a man). The Kinks wrote the song as a tongue-in-cheek ode to their manager who got very drunk and danced all evening with a cross-dresser. Yes, many of the lines are meant to push the listener to that conclusion. I was speaking only to the fact that the last line IS ambiguous in that it could mean that Lola is glad that the other person is a man. They wrote it that was purposely. I hope that clears it up!

I always loved that line, because I feel like it could have double meanings…though I don’t know for sure what Ray Davies had in mind when he wrote it. It could refer to Lola herself being dark brown, which would make the song even MORE progressive for the time than it already was, or it could also just be referring to the dark brown color of cola. Either way, I’ve always loved how smooth the line sounds.
