101% Man Lyrics - Beautiful South

I've seen these people described as mad 

But find men kissing too odd 

Say all their friends are gay when in fact 

They gave a man in tight vest a quick nod 

And all those threats if you keep kissing 

They're gonna go report you to god 

Yet if Christ really had that many disciples 

There was probably one of you in his squad 

And any news you receive would lead you to believe 

Of the other world little is known 

So that every gay presenter should really wear a sweater 

With kids don't try this at home

There are gay men you've knocked homophobics clean out 

When most would have turned and ran 

Gay men who hate it when they get called queer 

And gay men who don't give a damn 

Some gay men go wearing women's makeup 

Just to prove to themselves they can 

And on the masculine side of this whole wide world 

There is no 101% man 

Those who have only seen Gay Pride 

Think it's a life long license to shock 

But men have kissed men since way back when 

If you were caught you'd be put in a stock 

And any news you receive would lead you to believe 

Of the other world little is known 

So that every gay presenter should really wear a sweater 

With kids don't try this at home

There are gay men who've knocked homophobics clean out 

When most would have turned and ran 

Gay men who hate it when they get called queer 

And gay men who don't give a damn 

Some gay men go wearing women's makeup 

Just to prove to themselves they can 

And on the masculine side of this whole wide world 

There's no 101% man 

And when the Tom Robinson band sang 

"Sing if you're glad to be gay" 

We all joined in, and though most of us weren't 

The song seemed to show us the way 

And as the song reached it's end you looked for the friend that 

That made singing along feel O.K 

It aint San Francisco but your end of term disco 

And the dancefloor's beginning to sway 

There are gay who've knocked homophobices clean out 

When most would have turned and ran 

Gay men who hate it when they get called queer 

And gay men who don't give a damn 

Some gay men go wearing women's makeup 

Just to prove to themselves they can 

And on the masculine side of this whole wide world 

There's no 101% man
