my gay banjo - staying queer lyrics

Loading...

[verse]
how’d i always know i’d be raising someone alone?
fantasy of a kid, a dog, a truck was all i’d need
now i watch tv at night
folding laundry by its light
and i wonder what else could still be

[verse]
how’d i never know that i’d be drinking a beer alone
in the hours after we put our kid to bed
staring at my phone till it falls from my hand
dreaming alone till i wake up and do it again

[chorus]
if aging’s part of life, why does it cut like a knife?
why does it feel like we’re fighting alone?
i miss the days when i’d live with a thousand friends
we’d cook dinner and laugh it off

[verse]
in my 20s i was marching in the streets every week
in my 40s i can’t seem to get out the door
and every day the temperature’s rising
civil war on the horizon
i wonder, what’s it gonna take?
[verse]
in my 20s i was was another strand in a spider’s web
catching all the fun that we could catch
now i’m hanging down by a worn out thread
how much further can i stretch?

[chorus]
if aging’s part of life, why does it steal in the night?
why does it take what we’re not ready to give?
i’m having a crisis
let’s have a good cry, sis
let’s change the station and change the song

[outro]
whether you’re a mother or whether you’re a brother
you’re stayin’ alive, stayin’ alive
feel the city breaking and everybody’s shaking
we’re stayin’ alive, stayin’ alive
ah, ah, ah, ah stayin’ alive, stayin’ alive
ah, ah, ah, ah stayin’ alive

[bridge]
we’re still here
getting older, stayin’ queer
have no fear
it’s a fire that smolders, it’s crystal clear
[outro]
whether you’re a mother or whether you’re a brother
you’re stayin’ alive, stayin’ alive
feel the city breaking and everybody’s shaking
we’re stayin’ alive, stayin’ alive
ah, ah, ah, ah stayin’ alive, stayin’ alive
ah, ah, ah, ah stayin’ alive
