Oh in the 80s
They weren't the gayties
They were the straighties
On in teh 1980s

It's a new taboo
What am I gonna do
Is it a shock that I rock
And think the way I do
No one came out
Nobody was ever going to shout
Homosexuality
Is what I'm all about

Oh in the 80s
They weren't the gayties
They were the straighties
Oh in the 1980s

Gay in the 80s
It's like coming out in 1984
Being gay in teh 1980s
But more

Is it so wrong
For me to carry on
Can I still do what I do
And put it in a song
Is it OK
If I walk this way
Or will the little things I do
Give the game away

Oh in the 80s
They weren't the gayties
They were the straighties
Oh in the 1980s

Gay in the 80s
It's like coming out in 1984
Bein gay in the 1980s
But more

Gay in the 80s
It's like coming out in 1984
Being gay in the 1980s
But more
Gay in the 80s
It's the coming out in 1984
Being gay in the 1980s
But more
Get down...
