SONG OF THE MONTHIt has been said that if someone listening to a song does not understand the message the songwriter is delivering, then the songwriter has failed as a communicator. I don't think that will be the case with the Song of the Month for March, "Homosexual". (DOWNLOAD / PREVIEW)
I grew up with gay family members and gay friends. The concept was introduced to me at a young enough age that prejudices never entered the picture. Some people are queer. Big deal. Obviously though, there are people who feel differently. It's evident watching the debates on DOMA and DADT and other ridiculous topics. Republicans want us out of their bedroom but still want the ability to go into yours. For some people, queer can be "someone else's problem", but for parents, you don't get that choice. If you're having kids, open your mind, because "life is like a box of chocolates".

LYRICS for "Homosexual"
So did you see the writing on the wall
when your son showed a certain "flair"
And it didn't seem that strange to you that all his "girlfriends" had really short hair
Then just one ear gets pierced to showcase his pretty face
"Turn off the football dad, it's time for 'Will and Grace'"
There's one thing I think you know
Your son's a homosexual
Don't believe that he'll outgrow it
Your son's a homosexual
Somehow the tight pink shirts were not enough to give it away
What did you tell yourself when your friends called him fruitcake
"If they don't ask don't tell 'cause this world can get really mean
Ah hell, we love you son"
whatever makes you happy"
Don't know if you're homosexual
Do you think I'm homosexual
Does God loves the homosexuals?
God loves the homosexuals
