I read in the paper
The other day
How someone was beaten
Because they’re gay
Did their assailants hope
To beat it away?
And what does their behavior
Actually say?

Homosexualaity, they might
Not understand
But who said they had to
Become a fan?
In order for their minds
To be able to expand
People are as individual
As are grains of sand

Those who attack people
Because they’re gay
Question themselves
A lot of smart people say
Why else would they
Go out of their way?
In order to indicate
They don’t find it okay

What do their preferences
Have to do with them?
Nobody cares
About who they bend
Or whether they have
A happy end
So shouldn’t we all
Mind our own business then?
