For The Straight Folks Who Don't Mind Gays But Wish They Weren't So Blatant

You know, some people got a lot of nerve.
Sometimes I don't believe the things I see and hear.

Have you met the woman who's shocked by two women kissing
and, in the same breath, tells you she is pregnant?
But gays, shouldn't be so blatant.

Or this straight couple sits next to you in a movie and
you can't hear the dialogue because of the sound effects.
But gays shouldn't be so blatant.

And the woman in your office spends an entire lunch hour
talking about her new bikini drawers and how much
her husband likes them.
But gays shouldn't be so blatant.

Or the "hip" chick in your class rattling like a mile a minute,
while you're trying to get stoned in the john, about the
camping trip she took with her musician boyfriend.
But gays shouldn't be so blatant.

You go into a public bathroom and all over the walls there's John loves
Mary, Janice digs Richard, Pepe loves Delores, etc., etc.
But gays shouldn't be so blatant.

Or your go to an amusement park and there's a tunnel of love
with pictures of straights painted on the front and grinning
couples are coming in and out.
But gays shouldn't be so blatant.

Fact is, blatant heterosexuals are all over the place.
Supermarkets, movies, on your job, in church, in books, on television every day
and night, every place--even in gay bars--and they want gay
men and woman to go and hide in the closet.

So to you straight folks I say, "Sure, I'll go if you go too"
But I'm polite so, after you.
