so i recorded this song months ago, and am finally posting it now because
(1) i am currently hardcore procrastinating on my schoolwork, and
(2) today marks two months since i first started T, and when i was listening to this track again i realized just how much my voice…doesn’t sound like that anymore.
it was the first moment that really hit home just how much things are changing in my life right now. i’ve come so far, and i am so different from the person i was just two months ago – who will i be two months from now? how can i know, until i get there?
…so, existential crisis aside, enjoy! once again, shout out to @rabbittmouth, @dog-of-ulthar, and tom lehrer for inspiration. lyrics are below the cut!
be prepared
be prepared (for the undead gay apocalypse)
i blame @rabbittmouth’s brilliant poem and @dog-of-ulthar’s terrible influence.
to be sung to the tune of the tom lehrer march of the same(ish) namebe prepared,
for the gays are coming back!
be prepared,
to face their gay and undead wrath!be prepared to face the monsters that you made
when you said our love would send us to our grave.be prepared,
for every tragic story told
there’s a corpse
ready to come back for your soul.you thought “oh what a plot twist!” when you killed her for the grief
of her girlfriend’s watching horror, or his husband’s disbelief…
now for each gay who had to die, it’s eye for eye,
so be prepared!be prepared,
for the gays are gonna rise!
be prepared,
‘cause now they’re coming for your lives!when we’re dead make sure to bury us real deep,
or we’ll come back up to catch you when you sleep!you couldn’t bear
to keep the queers around,
but don’t bur-
-y what you can’t keep underground.is it too much to ask for, for a story we survive?
is it too much to ask for, for the queer kid not to die?
“apparently” the undead hordes declare,
well, be prepared!
