The British Police are the best in the world |
|
I don't believe one of these stories I've heard |
|
'Bout them raiding our pubs for no reason at all |
|
Lining the customers up by the wall |
|
Picking out people and knocking them down |
|
Resisting arrest as they're kicked on the ground |
|
Searching their houses and calling them queer |
|
I don't believe that sort of thing happens here |
|
Sing if you're glad to be gay |
|
Sing if you're happy that way |
|
Pictures of naked young women are fun |
|
In Titbits and Playboy, page three of The Sun |
|
There's no nudes in Gay News our last magazine |
|
But they still find excuses to call it obscene |
|
Read how disgusting we are in the press |
|
The News of The World and the Sunday Express |
|
Molesters of children, corruptors of youth |
|
It's there in the paper, it must be the truth |
|
Sing if you're glad to be gay |
|
Sing if you're happy that way |
|
Don't try to kid us that if you're discreet |
|
You're perfectly safe as you walk down the street |
|
You don't have to mince or make bitchy remarks |
|
To get beaten unconscious and left in the dark |
|
I had a friend who was gentle and short |
|
Got lonely one evening and went for a walk |
|
Queerbashers caught him and kicked in his teeth |
|
He was only hospitalised for a week |
|
Sing if you're glad to be gay |
|
Sing if you're happy that way |
|
So sit back and watch as they close all our clubs |
|
Arrest us for meeting and raid all our pubs |
|
Make sure your boyfriend's at least 21 |
|
So only your friends and your brothers get done |
|
Lie to your workmates, lie to your folks |
|
Put down the queens and tell anti-queer jokes |
|
Gay Lib's ridiculous, join their laughter |
|
'The buggers are legal now, what more are they after?' |
|
Sing if you're glad to be gay |
|
Sing if you're happy that way |
