They say it should not be
A Person like her with a person like me
just hanging around having a drink
without something more happenings
she sits beside me at the bar
smoking cigarettes and drinking beer
we laugh at those who don’t understand
we laugh at those who point and stare

They say that something’s never change
even those who preach equality
never want to believe
when they see us hanging around that
nothing else is going down

A friend of a friend came up to me
speaking angrily about how it should not be
making assumptions about what we are
just because it is something they could never be
TV and movies say it should not be
a person like her with a person like me
just hanging around having a drink
without something more happening

They say that something’s never change
even those who preach equality
never want to believe
when they see us hanging around that
nothing else is going down
