This is a song about the brilliance of deviant sexuality [Intro] G D Em G Am C Am D [Verse 1] D

C             D               G               G
Up behind the bus stop in the toilets off the street

          C           D              G                  G
There are traces of a killing on the floor beneath your feet

C                 D                 G                  Em
Mixed in with the piss and beer are bloodstains on the floor

         C               Am               C            D
From the boy who got his head kicked in a night or two before.

D [Chorus]

 G         D        Em            G       Am
(No!) Homophobia  -   the worst disease

             C            Am                D
Love how you want to love; and love who you please

 G         D        Em           G       Am
(No!) Homophobia  -  the worst disease

             C            Am                D
Love how you want to love; and love who you please

[Verse 2] D

       C               D            G                 G
In the pubs, clubs and burger bars, breeding pens for pigs,

C           D             G              G
Alcohol, testosterone and ignorance and fists

C                D       G               Em
Packs of hunting animals roam across the town

     C           Am               C                D
They find an easy victim and they punch him to the ground.

[Chorus]

 G         D        Em            G       Am
(No!) Homophobia  -   the worst disease

             C            Am                D
Love how you want to love; and love who you please

 G         D        Em           G       Am
(No!) Homophobia  -  the worst disease

             C            Am                D
Love how you want to love; and love who you please

[Instrumental] F C G G F C G G F C G G F C D D [Verse 3]

    C            D              G              G
The siren of the ambulance, the deadpan of the cops,

C                 D             G             G
Chalk to mark the outline where the boy first dropped

  C             D        G                    Em
Beware the holy trinity: church and state and law

   C                Am              C           D
For every death the virus gets more deadly than before.

[Chorus]

 G         D        Em            G       Am
(No!) Homophobia  -   the worst disease

             C            Am                D
Love how you want to love; and love who you please

 G         D        Em           G       Am
(No!) Homophobia  -  the worst disease

             C            Am                D
Love how you want to love; and love who you please
