Dance Quentin Crisp Remix lyrics
Quentin Crisp had
Quentin Crisp had
Quentin Crisp had
That little wiggle when he walked
He was the gay Englishman in New York
He’d wear more make up than Boy George
The clothes he wore were sharper than a sword
Stand up, stand up, don’t be afraid
You are what you are, come join the parade
Wear bright clothes, stand up with pride
Be proud who you are, you don’t have to hide
Wherever you are
Shine more brighter than the brightest star
Wherever you are
shine more brighter than the brightest star
Love who you love, love who you love, love who you love, love who you love
He waved the flag and stood alone
Others hid behind closet doors inside their homes
He was a lone gay soldier fighting a war
Fighting to be a free queer, nothing more
They called Quentin a homo freak
He just smiled and turned the other cheek
Turned the other cheek, the other cheek
Without him today you wouldn’t be free
To live your life openly
And to love who you love
Stand up, stand up, don’t be afraid
You are what you are, come join the parade
Wear bright clothes, stand up with pride
Be proud who you are, you don’t have to hide
Wherever you are
Shine more brighter than the brightest star
Wherever you are
Shine more brighter than the brightest star
Might be from England, America or France
You’ve got the groove, you know how to dance
You might be looking for something like romance
But I just come here to dance, I just come here to dance
But man, you look so cool, you look so hot
Okay here I come ready or not
Here I come ready or not
Here I come ready or not
Love who you love
Love who you love
Love who you love
Love who you love
Wherever you are
Shine more brighter than the brightest star
Wherever you are
Shine more brighter than the brightest star
