This is the story of Gad-about-Garth
He was the kind of man you see in every bar
And old school bling-bling guy, shades on in the dark
"I'm here for the ladies", he'd say: "light up my smoke"

Workin' the dancefloor, he'd shake it about
Chains and jewellery shimmering, bling-a-ling, glimmering
Workin' the females, not a butt he didn't slap
Dropping one-liners, some chauvinistic crap

"Hey baby, have you ever been south of the border?
Hey sugar, what would you like for breakfast in the morning?"

Garth's fellow workers at the office were fed-up
"I swear if he tries som'n with me I'll smack his ass all the way back to Gooberville!"
Especially the ladies who felt they had enough
"Damn straight, uh-huh!"
They had arranged for him a neat little surprise
The yearly party at the office was the night

They hired some really beautiful drag queens
To jump out of a cake and tease around the crowd (ta-dah!)
Everyone was in on it but Garth who was quite drunk
He did his usual act, obnoxious and loud


He was workin' the dancefloor, he'd shake it about
Chains and jewellery shimmering, bling-a-ling, glimmering
Workin' the queens, not a crotch he didn't tap
Dropping one-liners, some chauvinistic crap

"Hey baby, have you ever been south of the border?
Hey sugar, feel my pecker, he's the sheriff and that's an order
Hey baby, have you ever been south of the border?
Yo sugar, what would you like for breakfast in the morning?"

In the morning Garth woke up next to a beefy lady with no hair and bad breath
He was angry, but at the same time well, you know, he could not make himself leave just yet
All these feelings, what are these? Have I been Gad-about-Garth just to hide something that I am?
He remembered everything and felt a rush go through him as he realized he'd made love to a man!
In a sense he felt fulfilled as he looked back on getting high with Amanda last night (A man – duh!)
How could something he had always thought was filthy growing up, suddenly seem so right?
'CAUSE HE WAS GAY!

This was the story of the Gay-Man-Garth
He is the kind of man you don't see in a bar
A truly pleasant guy who listens, understands
All women want him but he saves it for the gents
