Spoliansky: The Lavender Song |
| What makes them think they have the right |
| To say what God considers vice? |
| What makes them think they have the right |
| To keep us out of Paradise? |
| They make our lives hell here on earth |
| Poisoning us with guilt and shame |
| If we resist, prison awaits |
| So our love dares not speak its name |
| The crime is when love must hide |
| From now on we’ll love with pride! |
| We’re not afraid to be queer and different |
| If that means hell, well hell we’ll take the chance |
| They’re all so straight, uptight, upright and rigid |
| They march in lock-step, we prefer to dance |
| We see a world of romance and of pleasure |
| All they can see is sheer banality |
| Lavender nights our greatest treasure |
| Where we can be just who we want to be |
| Round us all up, send us away |
| That’s what you’d really like to do |
| But we’re too strong, proud, unafraid |
| In fact we almost pity you |
| You act from fear, why should that be? |
| What is it that you’re frightened of? |
| The way that we dress? |
| The way that we meet? |
| The fact that you cannot destroy our love? |
| We’re going to win our rights to lavender days and nights! |
| We’re not afraid to be queer and different |
| If that means hell, well hell we’ll take the chance |
| They’re all so straight, uptight, upright and rigid |
| They march in lock-step, we prefer to dance |
| We see a world of romance and of pleasure |
| All they can see is sheer banality |
| Lavender nights our greatest treasure |
| Where we can be just who we want to be |
| Lavender nights our greatest treasure |
| Where we can be just who we want to be |
