Lyrics

Isn’t that queer
Isn’t that unusual
Don’t you want to find out more
What’s going on

Isn’t that bright
Isn’t that colourful
Isn’t that gay
What’s normal anyway

Don’t you think we’ve heard enough
Of your vitriol
Don’t you want to let it go
Stop swimming against the flow

Isn’t it time
That we celebrate respect
We’ve got so much to give
Live and let live

I can see it on your face
Our lives are not so alien
Instead of demonising pride
It’s about time we tried

Together we could build a bridge
To cross the cultural divide
Rome wasn’t built in a day
Meet me half way

Isn’t that queer
Isn’t that unusual
Don’t you want to find out more
What’s going on

Isn’t that bright
Isn’t that colourful
Isn’t that gay
What’s normal anyway

Time we tried
Live and let live
Meet me half way
What’s normal anyway
