lyrics

Using blue contacts to hide my pink colored eyes
Painting on a face that hides more than white lies
Walking down the street wondering if I look okay
I hope no one suspects that I was born gay

Sitting in a classroom where they hate who I am
25 wolves meets one little lamb
The teacher talks about us like we're from galaxies away
I guess she didn't know that I’m here to stay

People my age never look me in the eyes
Like I am a sinner in a teenage girl disguise
They wonder what a monster like me could do
But I just fall in love with women

On Mondays straights tell me to go to hell
On Tuesdays they ask me if satans doing well
On Wednesdays they tell me that this is just a phase
On Thursdays they tell me that I’m a disgrace
Fridays and Saturdays teaching kids how to hate
On Sundays they pray ”oh god please turn her straight”
The heterosexual agenda
That’s the heterosexual agenda

Lying to my parents about the things I could like
Imagine what they’ll say when my idol is a dyke
Telling them I listen to this plain white dude
But comparing him to Ally would be straight up rude

Crying in my room cos I know I’m all wrong
I’m a disappointment and I’ll never belong
Look up any article and you’ll see what they say
The world doesn’t want you if you’re young and gay

People my age never look me in the eyes
Like I am a sinner in a teenage girl disguise
They wonder what a monster like me could do
But I just fall in love with women



On Mondays straights tell me to go to hell
On Tuesdays they ask me if satans doing well
On Wednesdays they tell me that this is just a phase
On Thursdays they tell me that I’m a disgrace
Fridays and Saturdays teaching kids how to hate
On Sundays they pray ”oh god please turn her straight”
The heterosexual agenda
That’s the heterosexual agenda
The heterosexual agenda
That’s the heterosexual agenda
