the beautiful south - 101% man lyrics
i’ve seen these people described as mad
but find men kissing too odd
say all their friends are gay when in fact
they gave a man in tight vest a quick nod
and all those threats if you keep kissing
they’re gonna go report you to god
yet if christ really had that many disciples
there was probably one of you in his squad
and any news you receive would lead you to believe
of the other world little is known
so that every gay presenter should really wear a sweater
with kids don’t try this at home
there are gay men you’ve knocked h-m-phobics clean out
when most would have turned and ran
gay men who hate it when they get called queer
and gay men who don’t give a d-mn
some gay men go wearing women’s makeup
just to prove to themselves they can
and on the masculine side of this whole wide world
there is no 101% man
those who have only seen gay pride
think it’s a life long license to shock
but men have kissed men since way back when
if you were caught you’d be put in a stock
and any news you receive would lead you to believe
of the other world little is known
so that every gay presenter should really wear a sweater
with kids don’t try this at home
there are gay men who’ve knocked h-m-phobics clean out
when most would have turned and ran
gay men who hate it when they get called queer
and gay men who don’t give a d-mn
some gay men go wearing women’s makeup
just to prove to themselves they can
and on the masculine side of this whole wide world
there’s no 101% man
and when the tom robinson band sang
“sing if you’re glad to be gay”
we all joined in, and though most of us weren’t
the song seemed to show us the way
and as the song reached it’s end you looked for the friend that
that made singing along feel o.k
it aint san francisco but your end of term disco
and the dancefloor’s beginning to sway
there are gay who’ve knocked h-m-phobices clean out
when most would have turned and ran
gay men who hate it when they get called queer
and gay men who don’t give a d-mn
some gay men go wearing women’s makeup
just to prove to themselves they can
and on the masculine side of this whole wide world
there’s no 101% man
