Sandy Rapp — Ten Percent lyrics

Lyrics

God bless Pat Robertson; he’s the anointed one.
Jimmy he has sinned, it’s scandalous to tell,
And Jerry lost his heart to the P.T.L.
But God saved Pat Robertson; he can rebuke the storm.
He makes the mute to pray, but what he doesn’t say
Is a tenth of televangelists are gay.
We’re TEN PERCENT in Alabamy; we’re point 1−0 in Idaho.
From Washington to Indiany, we’re TEN PERCENT of the world.
God bless the Pentagon; they are the special ones.
They signed Perry Watkins on; he was good enough for Nam,
But he could not say he’s gay today and stay in uniform.
Here’s to the military’s evolving policies,
Their own researchers tell: 'homosexuals' excel,
And a tenth of all the troops are G. & L.
Were TEN PERCENT in Alabamy; we’re point 1−0 in Idaho.
From Washington to French Lick Indiany, we’re TEN PERCENT of the world.
God bless the Park Police; we marched in '93.
They knew we were a mil, but it gave them all a chill,
So they sanitize our numbers on the streets and on the Hill.
They’d said we’re one percent, in a study financed by the government.
If they’d let that «million» stay, then they might have had to say:
Half of all gay U.S.A. made the parade.
We’re TEN PERCENT in Alabamy; we’re point 1−0 in Idaho. HO!
From Washington to French Lick Indiany, we’re TEN PERCENT of the world.
