Rights For Gays Lyrics

Rights for gays, oh yeah
Rights for gays, oh yeah
Right now
Rights for gays, oh yeah

Comin' out
And they're going to hell
Tie 'em to a fence post
So you can take, take 'em to the bank

These homosexuals
And they're going to hell
Tie 'em to a fence post
And you can take, take 'em to the bank

Rights for gays, oh yeah
Rights for gays, oh yeah
Right now
Rights for gays, oh yeah

And medical care for everyone
The doctor is in
The doctor is in

These homosexuals

Rights for gays, oh yeah
Rights for gays, oh yeah
Right now
Rights for gays, oh yeah

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Well I just had an epiphany about this song:

'Right's for gays, oh yeah' sounds slightly sarcastic, like something we've been preaching about for a while now, but they still don't have equal rights..'Tie 'em to a fence post' self explanatory analogy or literal depending on what part of town/decade you're from..'So you can take, take 'em to the bank' you still demand they pay taxes/act as an 'equal' part of society, but you refuse them the right to marry. I may have read to far into this. thank you marijuana
