Breaking Chains: Confronting Homophobia with The Guillotines
Lyrics
Who the hell are you to tell others how to live their life
Questioning the authority of someone dictating how others should live.
What's it to you where someone lays their head at night
Challenging the concern about where someone chooses to sleep.
Homophobia? So, what makes you afraid
Questioning the fear associated with homophobia.
The terms that you use are played out and cliched
Criticizing the use of overused and stereotypical terms.
Your claims of religion, for me they don't stand
Rejecting claims of righteousness based on religion.
Doesn't the bible say to love your fellow man
Highlighting the contradiction with religious teachings promoting love.
This attitude you better change it fast
Urging a quick change in the negative attitude towards others.
Or you take your views and shove them up your ass
Suggesting a dismissive response to intolerant views.
You're just homophobic and an utter piece of shit
Repetition emphasizing strong condemnation of homophobic views.
Your bigoted views they make me sick
-You're just homophobic and an utter piece of shit
-Get with the times, you moronic twit
-You're just homophobic and an utter piece of shit
-Your bigoted views they make me sick
-You're just homophobic and an utter piece of shit
-You're just a scumbag and baby that's it
-I still don't get it, what makes this a fear
Expressing confusion about the basis of homophobic fear.
Do you just have a burning need to interfere
Questioning the need to interfere in others' lives.
I didn't realise that you had the authority
Rejecting the perceived authority to control minority lives.
To dictate the lives of every damn minority
Challenging the right to dictate the lives of minorities.
Live and let live, isn't that what they say
Advocating for a live-and-let-live philosophy.
Or does that not apply if a person is gay
Questioning the application of live-and-let-live in the context of homosexuality.
This stone age mentality is just not right
Denouncing a primitive and outdated mentality.
So get back in your cave you troglodyte
Labeling the intolerant person as a troglodyte and suggesting they return to their outdated ways.
