(Performed with musical accompaniment to ‘People will say we’re in love’ by Rogers & Hammerstein, 1943, but in a minor key)
Don’t praise my work so much
Don’t stand quite so near
Don’t laugh at my jokes too much
People will guess that we’re Queer
Don’t sigh and gaze at me
Your love is far too clear
Your eyes mustn’t glow like mine
People will know that we’re Queer
Don’t risk being truthful
Honesty would cost us both dear
Our families shamed, us prosecuted
Just because we are Queer
