Stinky Christians
Feb. 25, 2004

Now that George W. Bush has laid his cards on the table
Now that he's betting his election campaign on hate and division
All the Stinky Christians in the country have their moment

Forget about the Christians who say God Is Love
Love is boring. Let's talk Hate.
Let's tell lies. Gay people choose to be gay.
Gay people don't love
Gay people have all the rights they need
The truth would be, Too many rights for us to keep the dykes and faggots in their place

What about all you Christians out there who love the God of Love?
Did you see the pictures in the news
Of all the happy people in front of San Francisco City Hall?
The people paying tribute to your God?
The people with grins a mile wide because finally
Finally, the Love deep in their hearts
The Love forged in years of mutuality and sacrifice
Their Love was acknowledged as real?
Aren't you tired of the litanies of Stinky Christians
Denouncing Love every chance they get?
Saying love is exclusive, love pushes people out, love does not embrace?

Poor Jesus
Whatever happened to your religion?
All you Fresh-Smelling Christians
All you Do-Good-Unto-Your-Neighbor Christians
It's time for you to stand up and be counted now
It's time for you to show them what Love really means
