"I'm Gay" lyrics
(This fucking song is all personality)
(Dude, that's the shit!)
Well we've all heard about
How the guys in the band
Weren't the popular kids in school
And now you hate your parents
Cause of the way you turned out
But in the end the blame's on you
And we all sympathize with your torn-apart hearts
And your really artistic worldly views
It sells records when you're sad these days
It's super cool to be mad these days
I think rock and roll is really funny
When it's serious
Don't hate us 'cause we're happy
Don't hate us 'cause we're beautiful
Don't hate us if we make you smile
Or if we go the extra mile
To make someone feel better
On a really shitty day
And if you're hearing what I'm saying then
I want to hear you say, "I'm gay!"
(I'm gay!)
Say, "I'm gay!"
(I'm gay!)
Whooooo!
Let's start a movement, let's start it right now
And if you don't know where to start
I can show you, I'm your new team captain
Put your left hand over your heart
And repeat after me
It's perfectly fine to be a happy individual
(It's perfectly fine to be a happy individual)
Chris, Gary? (Yeah, buddy?) You guys wanna join in?
(Sure. Ah, man. Sorry, dude)
It's perfectly fine to be a happy individual
(It's perfectly fine to be a happy individual)
Very nice. Very – nice
Don't hate us cause we're happy
Don't hate us cause we're miserable
Don't hate us if we make you smile
Or if we go the extra mile
To make someone feel better on a really shitty day
And if you're hearing what I'm saying then
I want to hear you say, "I'm gay!" (I'm gay!)
Say, "I'm gay!" (I'm gay!)
That's right, ladies and gentleman!
Pick up the phone
Cause Bowling For Soup is on the line!
And you don't have to be sad anymore!
You don't have to be mad anymore!
We can all join hands and do ring around
The freaking rosie!
In fact, can we can get some "La la"s up in here?
It sells records when you're sad these days
It's super cool to be mad these days
I think rock and roll is really funny
When it's serious
(Yo, where're my "La la"s at?)
La la-la la, la-la la-la
La la la la
La la-la la, la-la la-la
La la la la
La la-la la, la-la la-la
La la la la
La la-la la, la-la la-la
La la la la
La la-la la, la-la la-la
