In the morning the grass is so inviting
Makes you wanna toss a coin and start a game
But there's a fellow yelling, "Drop and give me fifty"
Is it too much trouble to remember my name
I admit it - I'm uncoordinated
Kinda stumble and run on two left feet
But I'm a person of more than one dimension
A poet and a lover not an athlete
Hey, Coach, don't call me a queer!
Hey, Coach, don't call me a queer!
I can sing the entire score from Jaques Brel
I can hack into a database in "C"
But I'll never run a mile in half an hour
It doesn't mean you're better than me
You got trouble with friendly competition
Let a little bit of power go to your head
When the team is winning games you're Mr Charming
Get a run behind watch your face turn red
Hey, Coach, don't call me a queer!
Hey, Coach, don't call me a queer!
My s**uality is not the issue
Calling me names won't make me want to play
Abusive motivation's overrated
How do you know that I'm not gay?
Hey, Coach, don't call me a queer!
Hey, Coach, don't call me a queer!
Now I'm a father and an orthopedic surgeon
My youngest kid is in his high school freshman year
So I go to pick him up at soccer practice
When I hear his coach yelling into his ear
I never wanted to send my kid to boot camp
I only wanted to build his motor skill
But his coach is a marine corps drill instructor
Training all of his troops the way to kill.
