Yester-Gay

Dark parody of The Beatle's classic Yesterday

Yesterday....
All his troubles seemed to begin
No end in sight
Now that he's come out to say
Yes, he's gay
Oh how he wishs that he could take back yesterday
Suddenly, his friends and family turn their backs
Claiming he's not half the man they used to know
There's a shadow hanging over him
Oh yesterday he came out of the closet
So suddenly
Why their love turned to hate they could't say
Treated him so wrong now he only to take back yesterday....
Yesterday....
Sexuality was such an easy game to play
Now he needs a place to hide away
Oh if only he could take back yesterday
The heartbreak of yesterday
He used to believe in yesterday
Oh he has to go
Why he knows all too well
They told him
His choice was wrong
Now he longs only to take back yesterday....
Yesterday
Sexuality was such an easy game to play
Now he needs a place to hide away


Oh he used to believe yesterday
He used to believe yesterday
Nothing would change for him today
Now he knows better
Can't go back
Can't take back
Turn back the hands of time
Cos yesterday is gone
