I thought gay rights were here to stay
But right wing holdouts won't obey
Defending homophobia With religion-based myopia
But if that's why they're resistant, they oughta be consistent
They're just cherry picking the bible to block equality
The proof is undeniable of their hypocrisy
They apply selective economy To what they do from Deuteronomy
They can't just choose which rules they will obey
If they cite the Bible, they should follow it all the way
It also says Pork & shellfish they can't eat And don't go mixing milk and meat
On Sabbath no work can you do, and it's a sin to get a tattoo
Mixed fabric clothing never wear and never trim your beard or hair
If all that they don't follow, their argument's hard to swallow
Cause they're cherry picking the bible to say, There's no Adam and Steve
That logic isn't viable with so much else they don't believe
They can't rail against same sex at us Til they observe each word of Exodus
They can't just choose which rules they will obey
If they cite the bible, they should follow it all the way
The bible also okays slavery And women are husband's property
Men can have a lot of wives Nonvirgin brides should lose their lives
And if kids commit gluttony they get the death penalty
If all that they don't observe, than they've got a lot of nerve
to go cherry picking the Torah to redefine reality
Like, the sin in Sodom & Gomorrah, was actually lack of hospitality
Plus the so-called gay menace is Not mentioned at all in Genesis
No skipping Scripture bits they don't wanna use
If they cite the bible they can't just pick & choose
Plus the line they've quoted all along
Says laying with another man is wrong
But I guess it's fine to do it standing up, sitting or swimmin'
And it doesn't say a thing about two women - (which makes the Bible kinda like porn!)
It's cherry picking the good book to say men can't marry men
If these homophobes just would look, we've all evolved since then
Even the most semitic us Ignore most of Leviticus
They're just cherry picking so they can discriminate
No need to get all blistery, they're on the losing side of history
They're cherry picking to justify their hate
They used the same lame rationalization for laws against miscegenation
Quit cherry picking the bible to block equality! - Oy vey!
