Cape

© Ben Burton 6-3-2015 I swore before you'd never hear me say A certain word whose definition changed I think I've fin'ly reached the time and place Where using its new meaning is okay For who'd have ever thought that being straight Is the new gay Yeah, it's the new gay Don't tell me I'm wrong Straight is the new gay I feel so alone But we must be brave The few who are straight Ole Yet if new normals break the back of strange What word is worthy to reflect the change Monotony is Mother to decay When end rhymes end in "A" with no escape Well, there's a thought, we'll call the new word "cape" They say that I'm cape But not very long It means I am strange Don't play the trombone So I must be brave So few of us straights Remain
