Love Is

from High Jinks by High Jinks

lyrics

there's a boy behind a desk
hating everything he is
who's praying something different
every single night
just like the boy who was raised
knowing he was second class,
on his knees beside his bed praying
that he'd wake up white

there's a boy behind a desk
with a collar and a robe
who sees sanctity in high-
definition black and white
and he doesn't care in which god's
house they're signing the cards,
but he'll shut it down if there
isn't a man and a wife

there's a boy behind a desk
writing laws in holy ink
with his foot on civil rights
in the interest of the clerics
blacks got equal rights
women go the vote
but god help him if he'll give
faggots the right to marry

love is love
hate is hate
outlaw the marriage of
the church and state
