The Subject Was Faggots |
The Subject Was Faggots |
and the «e was «ain't nothin' happenin' but faggots and dope» |
Faggots and dope, faggots and faggots and faggots who line dot dot dot dot dot |
Like that, 34th street and 8th avenue |
Giggling and grinning and prancing and shit |
Trying their best to see to see the misses and misery |
and miscellaneous misfits who attend the faggot ball |
faggots who have come to ball |
faggots who have come to ball |
faggots who were balling because they couldn’t get their balls |
inside the faggot hall |
Balling, balling, ball-less faggots |
cutie cootie and snoodie faggots |
I mean you just had to dig it to dig it |
the crowning attraction being the arrival of Ms Brooklyn |
looking like a half-back in a mini-skirt |
with swan feathers covering |
his err hers a it’s pectoral and balls |
and he err she or it prepared to enter the faggot ball |
but sitting on the corner digging all that I did as I did |
long long, black limousines and long flowin' evening gowns |
had there been no sign on the door saying «faggot ball» |
I might have entered, and god only knows just what would’ve happened |
