Hey, Gay Boy

When I was a child, I was out of focus

My head was in the clouds, I barely noticed

Laughter as I stood there picking up flowers

I'm selling them as perfume in a couple of hours

I hid in the shadows, wore rose-tinted glasses

The truth's hard to swallow, like a thick molasses

I changed everything to make me feel different

Packed up a childhood, dead in an instant

So I crawled inside

And I tore up the roots in the garden of me

Scraped my knees praying please

"Get it out of me"

Hey, gay boy

Hey, gay boy

No, nobody knows you like I do

No, nobody loves you like I do

And so what? I wanna wear my mother's dresses

Shine like a star, like pearls on her necklace

And lock me away for feeling this pretty

Yeah, football with the boys ain't no Sex in the City

So I crawled inside

And I tore up the roots in the garden of me

Scraped my knees praying please

"Get it out of me"

Hey, gay boy

Hey, gay boy

No, nobody knows you like I do

No, nobody loves you like I do

Nobody knows you like I

Nobody loves you like I

Nobody knows you like I

Hey, gay boy

Hey, gay boy

No, nobody knows you like I do

No, nobody loves you like I do
