Revamp The Community

lyrics

Isn't it ironic...
That a community
that has been oppressed for years
oppresses minorities within the community.

Racism,
it's often seen
not hidden.
No blacks,
No asians,
that's what they say.
How can you act like this,
when people have shunned you
from basic civil rights?

How are we supposed to feel welcome,
when you exlcude so many others,
when you judge them harshly.
Your elder queers did not fight
for your right to exclude.

Harsh judgement,
it's like you're punk elitists.
You gotta listen to this,
watch that,
dress like this,
drink that -
and on and on.
You say I'm not one of you,
because of my differing tastes.
Because I'm different.

How are we supposed to feel welcome,
when you exclude so many others,
when you judge them harshly.
Your elder queers did not fight
for your right to exclude.

This community
is supposed to be a safe haven,
for those of us who identify as
LGBT.
But there you lot are,
pushing some of us away
because of our race or taste.
How am I supposed to belong,
when you I have to pass
some asinine judgement test.

You think it's all about reading
and being a superior queen bitch,
but that don't help no one.

How are we supposed to feel welcome,
when you exclude so many others,
when you judge them harshly.
Your elder queers did not fight
for your right to exclude.

I will fight for your rights,
but you need to get it together.
