I’m a straight, and sometimes that really sucks!
I am not what the fellas call desirable,
Not a thin girl who sells her bod for bucks.
I am not what employers think is hirable.
I agree that most gender roles are silly,
So today I’ll escape to where I’ll fade,
Where the gals dress so tough and guys are frilly.
What a dilly at today’s Gay Pride Parade!

When I see a bouffant hairdo
On a man with a beard for days
With bare legs that show what Nair’ll do,
I enjoy seeing the gays!

There’s drag queens on golden perches
Who shout out “Happy Gay Pride Day!”
There’s praise songs from lib’ral churches.
I enjoy seeing the gays!

I flip over fellas dressed in flowers.
I drool over bare and shiny pecs!
I wish that these sweetie boys were ours.
It’s too bad that they want each other for the sex!

I’m not such a female female,
And today I will hope to see
A flamboyant and flagrant she-male
Who’ll enjoy
Being a guy
Acting so gay
For me.

There’s “bike dykes” on motorcycle
And the floats where they dance for days.
There’s Gov Dave and Mayor Michael!
I enjoy seeing the gays!

Balloons and the flags of rainbow
And the marchers who shout “Stop AIDS!”
The rightists cry, “Where’d the shame go?”
I enjoy seeing the gays!

They try to oppress the homosexual
With beatings and laws and church decrees,
But those methods prove so ineffectual,
For the tighter you squeeze, the more will slip out free!

I’m not such a female female,
And today I will hope to see
A flamboyant and flagrant she-male
Whoooooo’ll enjoy
Being a guy
Acting so gay
For me!
