letra de queers in the closet - romanovsky & phillips
(by staying closeted we make ourselves invisible; by coming out
we shatter the popular illusion that the whole world is
heteros-xual. gay men and women with high visibility can have a
tremendous impact by coming out, especially on the next
generation. we owe it to those who have brought our movement
this far to finish the job. we cannot -ssume someone else will
do it for us.)
there’s a woman that we all know and love
she’s made us laugh for years
we’ve watched as her talents unfolded
and blossomed into a career
but every time you see her
with her lover on tv
they call themselves “partners”
to keep up the myth
of heteros-xuality
there’s a former host of a talk show
as gay as the day is long
but he always sang the wrong pr-noun
when he opened with a song
well it’s true, he might lose a few fans
but he’d gain one more in me
if he just wouldn’t try to live the myth
of heteros-xuality
queers in the closet
in positions of power
doing a dance on thin ice
deals with the devil to be heroes for an hour
how long must we pay the price?
(it’s time to think twice)
there’s a famous fashion designer
respected from east to west
we wear his name on our underwear
on our b-tts and on our chests
but the ones who buy his clothing
would prefer to never see
that they’re also buying the myth
of heteros-xuality
there’s a singer who’s risen to stardom
she got famous overnight
they say that she signed a contract
to keep her lesbian lips sealed tight
when she feels that she’s established
will she come out for all to see
or will she perpetuate the myth
of heteros-xuality
think twice about taking a free ride to freedom
while many are making demands
and we should think twice
about protecting the people
who think that there’s safety in silence
and won’t take a stand
