Romanovsky And Phillips - The Sodomy Song lyrics

(To all the courageous men and women who participated in the civil disobedience at the Supreme Court on October 13, 1987 to protest the court's ruling in Michael Hardwick's case and the sodomy laws which remain on the books in over 20 states.) It's hard to believe in a land like this That the freedom we think we have does not exist Don't ask me why the cops and the Feds Care in the least what we do in our beds 'Cause only an a**hole would care What goes into our a**holes and who puts it there And only a person who's really repressed Would attempt to decide for the rest Now Michael was entertaining a guest When the officer walked right in and made the arrest Who would have thought that the courts would uphold An archaic law that's a hundred years old But the danger's not what's in our mouths It's the mouthful of bigotry which they espouse Referring to God and the heavens above To legislate how we make love How can anyone disagree With the fundamental right to privacy? Something intrigues them, I don't know what Why else would they want to keep track of my bu*t? And why should anyone have a say As to whom we should and shouldn't lay? The think it's sinful, I think it s**s Having laws that tell us how we should f...ornicate We've got to repeal the laws that remain 'Cause what happened in Georgia must not happen again So roll up your sleeves and join in the fight We're not giving in 'til we've gotten our rights 'Cause we're being screwed all the time By laws that make our way of screwing a crime They're calling on years of oppression and shame To justify more of the same 'Cause only an a**hole would care What goes into our a**holes and who puts it there And only a person who's really repressed Would attempt to decide But we can turn back the tide By refusing to hide When they attempt to decide for the rest
