Boy George

Boy George (born George Alan O'Dowd on 14 June 1961) is an English singer-songwriter, who was part of the English New Romanticism movement which emerged in the early 1980s. His music is often classified as blue-eyed soul, which is influenced by rhythm and blues and reggae. His 1990s and 2000s-era solo music has glam influences such as David Bowie and Iggy Pop. During the 1980s, Boy George was the lead singer of the Grammy and Brit Award winning pop band Culture Club. He also founded and was lead singer of Jesus Loves You during the period 1989–1992. Being involved in many activities (among them songwriting, DJing, writing books, designing clothes and photography), he has released fewer music recordings in the last decade. more »

How does it feel, what do you do,
When he's all alone with you?
Do you kiss him, hold his hand?
Who's the woman?  Who's the man?

Is it twisted, it is sick?
Mother nature's little trick.
I don't have to feel no shame;
In God's image I am made.

Your brother doesn't understand
How you could love another man.
Your poor father thinks we're cursed.
It's the same thing in reverse.

It's the same thing in reverse.
Nothing better, nothing worse.
It's the same thing in reverse.
It's the same thing, it's the same thing.

Love is!  La de dah.
What can you say?  Where do you go?
Do you want the world to know?
Make a prison of your fear.
Be a kamikaze queer.

Bite my lip, hold my tongue.
Hope I'm not the only one.
I don't have to be afraid;
In God's image I am made.

Your brother doesn't understand
How you could love another man.
And your poor father thinks we're cursed.
It's the same thing in reverse.

It's the same thing in reverse.
Nothing better, nothing worse.
It's the same thing in reverse.
It's the same thing, it's the same thing.

Do I love him?  Yes I love him.
So don't question my affection.
This is not some damn affliction.
It's just love, in contradiction.

It's the same thing, it's the same thing.
Black boys in cars. (It's the same thing.)
White boys with poisonous hearts. (It's the same thing.)
Even on the one-eyed guru. (It's the same thing.)
And why the hell you looking at me? (It's the same thing.)

I never wanted to be part of the gang. (It's the same thing.)
I never saw this as part of my plan. (It's the same thing.)
I walk down the street with pride. (It's the same thing.)
Happy that you're by my side.
