I'll tell the truth and make it rhyme

And hope they understand me

Verse 2

Asus2

Now Broadway's like a sewer

Bums and hookers everywhere

Wino passed out on the sidewalk

Doesn't anybody care?

Some say "He's worthless, just let him be!"

I for one would have to disagree

And so would their Ma- ma's

E 
Asus2 
Now if you get an ear      pierced
E 
Some will call you gay
But if you drive a pick-up
A 
They'll say "No, you must be straight!"
What we are and what we ain't
What we can and what we can't
B 
E 
Does it really matter?
