I present Taylor Swift’s You Need To Calm Down, with accompanying images.
—/—
You are somebody that I don’t know
But you’re taking shots at me like it’s Patrón
And I’m just like, damn, it’s 7am
Say it in the street, that’s a knock-out
But you say it in a Tweet, that’s a cop-out
And I’m just like, “Hey, are you okay?”
And I ain’t trying to mess with your self-expression
But I’ve learned the lesson that stressin’
And obsessin’ ’bout somebody else is no fun
And snakes and stones never broke my bones so
So, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
You need to calm down
You’re being too loud
And I’m just like oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh (oh)
You need to just stop
Like, can you just not step on my gown?
You need to calm down
You are somebody that we don’t know
But you’re coming at my friends like a missile
Why are you mad?
When you could be GLAAD? (You could be GLAAD)
Sunshine on the street at the parade
But you would rather be in the dark ages
Making that sign, must’ve taken all night
You just need to take several seats and then try to restore the peace
And control your urges to scream about all the people you hate
‘Cause shade never made anybody less gay
Questions for Discussion:
Does Taylor Swift’s song about homophobia strike a chord with you?
Why do far leftists hate the most tolerant, pluralistic, diverse and inclusive country in the Middle East?
Do you support efforts to eliminate homophobia internationally?
