I’m may be ‘gay’ but I’m not happy

 

I can’t be happy if I’m not ‘gay’

 

With the latest ‘S. C.’ ruling

 

The law can put me away

 

 

 

And what goes on on in jail?

 

The same thing we do outside

 

Now It’s back to the closet

 

People like me have to hide

 

 

 

Adam was made for Eve

 

Also for Steve is what I say

 

But according to the law

 

It’s now illegal anyway

 

 

 

Elton John please don’t visit

 

Tell George Michael to stay away

 

If  ‘M J’ came to visit now

 

The courts would have had a field day.

 

 

 

Us fruit flies and us fairies

 

Are quite different from the rest

 

But we are also tax paying citizens

 

We too deserve the best

 

 

 

In the time gone by

 

They burnt witches at the stake

 

All we do is love our fellow men

 

Is that such a big mistake?

 

 

 

With our personal choices

 

The law should not interefere

 

In this matter even the ‘POPE’

 

Has made his opinion very clear
