101 per cent Man |
| I’ve seen these people described as mad |
| But find men kissing too odd |
| Say all their friends are gay when in fact |
| They gave a man in tight vest a quick nod |
| And all those threats if you keep kissing |
| They’re gonna go report you to god |
| Yet if Christ really had that many disciples |
| There was probably one of you in his squad |
| And any news you receive would lead you to believe |
| Of the other world little is known |
| So that every gay presenter should really wear a sweater |
| With kids don’t try this at home |
| There are gay men you’ve knocked homophobics clean out |
| When most would have turned and ran |
| Gay men who hate it when they get called queer |
| And gay men who don’t give a damn |
| Some gay men go wearing women’s makeup |
| Just to prove to themselves they can |
| And on the masculine side of this whole wide world |
| There is no 101% man |
| Those who have only seen Gay Pride |
| Think it’s a life long license to shock |
| But men have kissed men since way back when |
| If you were caught you’d be put in a stock |
| And any news you receive would lead you to believe |
| Of the other world little is known |
| So that every gay presenter should really wear a sweater |
| With kids don’t try this at home |
| There are gay men who’ve knocked homophobics clean out |
| When most would have turned and ran |
| Gay men who hate it when they get called queer |
| And gay men who don’t give a damn |
| Some gay men go wearing women’s makeup |
| Just to prove to themselves they can |
| And on the masculine side of this whole wide world |
| There’s no 101% man |
| And when the Tom Robinson band sang |
| «Sing if you’re glad to be gay» |
| We all joined in, and though most of us weren’t |
| The song seemed to show us the way |
| And as the song reached it’s end you looked for the friend that |
| That made singing along feel O. K |
| It ain’t San Francisco but your end of term disco |
| And the dancefloor’s beginning to sway |
| There are gay who’ve knocked homophobices clean out |
| When most would have turned and ran |
| Gay men who hate it when they get called queer |
| And gay men who don’t give a damn |
| Some gay men go wearing women’s makeup |
| Just to prove to themselves they can |
| And on the masculine side of this whole wide world |
| There’s no 101% man |
| Man |
