Sexuality
Billy Bragg Lyrics

I've had relations with girls from many nations
I have been with girls from many countries.

I've made passes at women of all classes
I have flirted with women from all social classes.

And just because you're gay I won't turn you away
I won't reject someone just because they are gay.

If you stick around I'm sure that we can find some common ground
If we work together, we can find common interests.

Sexuality
The various ways in which people express sexual desire.

Strong and warm and wild and free
Sexuality is powerful and diverse and can be expressed in surprising ways.

Your laws do not apply to me
Societal norms regarding sexuality do not dictate who I am attracted to.

A nuclear submarine sinks off the coast of Sweden
News stories can be overwhelming and depressing.

Headlines give me headaches when I read them
News can be stressful and anxiety inducing.

I had an uncle who once played for Red Star Belgrade
I have family connections to people who have accomplished unique things.

He said some things are really left best unspoken
Some things are better off not being spoken aloud.

But I prefer it all to be out in the open
I believe that honesty and openness are important in relationships and communication.

Don't threaten me with misery
Don't try to scare me into conformity by painting horrifying pictures of life outside the norm.

I demand equality
I believe in equal rights for all people, regardless of their sexuality.

I'm sure that everybody knows how much my body hates me
My body sometimes betrays me, causing me pain and frustration.

It lets me down most every time and makes me rash and hasty
My body's weaknesses sometimes cause me to make impulsive and regrettable decisions.

I feel a total jerk before your naked body of work
I feel embarrassed when I compare my own accomplishments to those of others.

I'm getting weighed down with all this information
I feel overwhelmed by the sheer amount of information available to me.

Safe sex doesn't mean no sex it just means use your imagination
Instead of avoiding sex, we can use our creativity to make it safer and more fun.

Stop playing with yourselves in hard currency hotels
Stop wasting your time on empty, materialistic pleasures.

I look like Robert De Niro, I drive a Mitsubishi Zero
I am unique and hard to define, much like a blend of two vastly different things.

Come eat and drink and sleep with me
Let's enjoy each other's company in all aspects of life.

We can be what we want to be
We have the power to define ourselves and lead the lives we want to lead, regardless of what others might think.
