lyrics

Sometimes I don’t care if I’m straight passing to everybody
Except the boys I’m trying to sleep with
Living with this privilege and this luxury
Is sometimes hard to sleep with

So this songs for my friends and my family
To make a couple of things clear
Even when I’m with a woman romantically
I still enjoy a penis in my rear

Too queer to be straight and to straight to be queer
Gonna forget those lies and get me outta here
To a place where my friends and my lovers roam
They love me without labels and it feels like home

Well… I know that I should be out and proud
But I slept in through the parade
It can be hard to shout it loud
When identity feels like a charade

There are so many other voices that I’d rather you hear
So a ruminate amongst my choices
Bi, pansexual, or queer?

(Chorus)

So what do you tell me Mr. Stardust?
Is my sexuality from Mars?
Or am I just a liar to my own lust
An astronaut adrift amongst the stars

So what do you tell me Mr. Mercury?
Can they stop me now
From presenting myself honestly
Even though I sometimes don’t know how

Too straight to be queer to queer to be straight
Gonna forget those lies gonna forget self hate
In a place where my friends and my lovers roam
They love me without labels and it feels like home
