My prom was awesome I have no regrets

Now that the Catholics all have empty nests I can tell you honestly

It was all gay as hell

I don't know who invented the bottle that spins

But I know it’s a fun game that everyone wins

When you play it with closeted queers it’s a love carousel

When nobody thinks that it’s real to be bi

Your hometown gets filled up with all sorts of lies

I’m sorry for all the straight roles that I failed at portraying

But Lord grant me patience and Hugh Grant me grace

I never knew love til I looked in their face

When they told me with tears in their eyes that this wasn’t just playing

That isn’t what happened but it’s what I remember

Don’t tell the host I don’t want to offend her

But I’ve never felt stronger while loving so tender

And we tried so hard but we were still wrong about gender

Bicycle / pancake / omnipotent / queer

Pick a prefix that fits you I’m glad you’re still here

Me and God hate the people who tell you your feelings are fake

But the first person who made me feel good to be tall

Who made me feel real in a whole way at all

Wore the wrong kind of clothes that TV told me I should be right for

Gay weddings in Boston showed it was ok

If I hadn’t known that I might not be here today

So let’s try telling kids that their joy is a thing we will fight for

That isn’t what happened but that’s what I remember

When we started telling truths at the end of december

We made the worst daiquiris ever to spill from a blender

And we tried to learn but we were so wrong about gender
