Same Love

歌詞

When I was in the third grade

我念國小三年級的時候

I thought that I was gay

覺得自己是同性戀

Cause I could draw, and my uncle was,and I kept my room straight

因為我像我同志叔叔一樣會畫畫，房間維持一塵不染

I told my mom tears rushing down my face

我淚流滿面地告訴我媽媽

She’s like “Ben you've loved girls since before pre-k shrimp”

她說:“Ben，你上幼稚園時就喜歡女孩了”

Trippin’, yeah, I guess she had a point, didn’t she?

真怪，好吧，我想她說得有道理，對吧？

Bunch of stereotypes all in my head.

但一連串的刻板印象還是在腦里打轉

I remember doing the math like,“yea

記得我作數學題時

I’m good at little league”

成績還算不錯

A preconceived idea of what it all meant For those that liked the same sex

先入為主的觀念占據腦海

Had the characteristics

認為同性戀帶有獨特性定義

The right wing conservatives think it’s a decision

那些右派保守份子認為同性戀是後天的"選擇"

And you can be cured with some treatment

可用醫療手段及宗教信仰來治癒

and religion Man made rewiring of a predisposition Playing god,

想透過人為來扭轉性向企圖扮演上帝角色

aw nah here we go America the brave still fears what we don’t know

不，又來了，美國式勇氣仍畏懼未知的事物

And god loves all his children, is somehow forgotten

上帝愛衪所有的子民卻被眾人遺忘

But we paraphrase a book written thirty-five-hundred years ago
