Rural Faggot

You ride your John Deere down to the pond
 Just to watch me struggle along.
 You say you got your daddy's seed in you
 And you think you're bored with anything there is to do with me.
 You wipe your hands across your bare chest
 And rub your fingers through your crew cut hair.
 "Expelled from school," you tell me with a grin,
 "I copped a feel from an ex-girlfriend."
 I know you want to break the rules-
 We were made by nature's fools.
 And so you ride all day long, all by yourself,
 'Til you feel strong-
 Strong enough to stay
 Strong enough to be
 Standing in the way
 Of everything I see.
 You wanna know why I had to go
 Down to the baseball park to see you blow it.
 All the balls just fall from your hands,
 And your daddy asks me, "When is he gonna be a man?"
 I know you want to change the truth-
 We were made by nature's fools.
 So you ride all night long
 With your boys in those muscle cars.
 And you go down to the city
 And laugh at the faggots
 Until the girls look pretty and until you feel strong-
 Strong enough to stay
 Strong enough to be
 Standing in the way
 Of everything that you could see.
 I'm just a magnet for the rural faggots.
 They come and knock on my door
 Just to find they're running out of time
 To figure out what they come here for.
 I know you want to know the truth
 And I'm the dyke who will give it to you.
 By this time next year
 you'll know you're queer
 It'll all be okay
 It'll all be clear
 And you'll run away from home
 But not to be alone
 And you'll go down to the city
 Where the boys are pretty
 And where you feel strong
 Strong enough to stay
 Strong enough to be
