The Killing of Georgie (Part I and II) Lyrics

Lyric discussion by ThorValhalla 

Cover art for The Killing of Georgie (Part I and II) lyrics by Rod Stewart

It's about a gay Scottish bloke. He tells his parents he's gay and his dad is like, 'Right, I'm not having any of that' and kicks him out. One day, the little gay fella was watching telly and saw that New York had lots of gays, so he went there. He's having a great time, they all loved him. He was out late one night, walking home, gets attacked, gets killed. I always wonder, was it good that he had a good life and was able to be himself, or should he have stayed in Scotland and lived? Anyway, this wouldn't have happened if gays didn't stay out so late. They start partying late at night. It's mental at 4 in the morning. That's all I'm saying.

My Interpretation

head like a fukkin orange

@ThorValhalla That you were able to figure out what this song is about when the lyrics make it obvious must be quite the accomplishment for you. And all you are saying, is that you think it's fine if someone stays out late and parties as long as they are straight. Otherwise you think it's ok if someone murders them just for being gay. I'm sure you are baiting but I don't care. This song is awesome and deserves better than your comment. That you were able to figure out what it's about, when the lyrics make it obvious is quite the accomplishment for...

@fyschee How's it feel not being in on the joke? I bet you feel like that a lot.
