Queer Punk Song
Rebellion and Longing: The Queer Punk Anthem Unveiled
Lyrics
You don't see him
You are not aware of him
Cause he's over at my home watching
Because he is at my place, watching Rocky Horror
Rocky Horror
Referencing a movie night with a potentially intimate atmosphere
And we're all alone
We are alone in this situation
Don't you want him
A question about your desire for him
I won't make a move, I swear
I won't make a move, I promise
Our parents
Our parents disapprove of our relationship
won't approve
Highlighting disapproval from parental figures
This shit house
Describing a problematic living situation
I'll have my kicks till I get out
I'll enjoy myself until I can escape
My stout heart
Emphasizing resilience and determination
Finding comfort as I burn out
Finding solace in comfort as things come to an end
You're a big girl
Addressing someone as mature and advising against crying out
Don't cry out in this small town thinking
Emphasizing the limited opportunities in a small town
of a thousand
Imagining numerous emotional breakdowns
More melt downs
Reflecting on potential emotional crises
Don't you let me
Expressing a desire not to be held back
Keep this boy in my basement playing
Referring to keeping a person in a confined space
Video games, feeling the distance
Mentioning video games and emotional distance
This shit house
Reiterating the problematic living situation
I'll have my kicks till I get out
Reiterating the determination to enjoy life until escape
My stout heart
Emphasizing resilience and determination once again
Finding comfort as I burn out
Finding comfort as things come to an end, once more
I know you see me, seeing him
Awareness of being observed while engaged with him
Steal glances at your skirt
Noticing subtle gestures towards someone else
I know his mind is on you
Acknowledging the other person's thoughts about you
As his hand reaches up my shirt
Physical contact with potential romantic implications
This shit house
Repeating the problematic nature of the living situation
This shit town
Expanding the negative description to the entire town
My stout heart
Reiterating resilience and determination with a mention of a weak sound
My weak sound
Highlighting personal vulnerability in the situation
This shit house, This shit town
Summarizing the challenging aspects of the living situation
My stout heart, my weak sound
Repeating the negative aspects with a focus on personal resilience
This shit house, This shit town
Continuing to emphasize the challenges and personal strength
My stout heart, my weak sound
Reiterating the difficult situation and personal vulnerability
This shit house, This shit town
Emphasizing the challenges and personal strength once more
My stout heart, my weak sound
Concluding with a repetition of the difficult situation and personal vulnerability
