DOMA

I met her in a nation
in a coma
I asked her name and in a
purple voice was told:
DOMA
D-O-M-A
DOMA

Now I ain't dumb
so I do understand
the lay of your life
can get screwed by
the hand of The Man
even after DOMA
Watch out, even
After DOMA

Cheering Queers kissed on the mouth!
I tanned and tried voting in the South!
I got down on my knee!
I showed my voter ID

Some even asked of my literacy

It’s 5 to 4
and it ain’t going to be any more
as long the country’s the way
it’s been long before
before DOMA

Now I ain’t the land’s most flag-waving man
but I know what I am, I’m an American
unlike DOMA
D-O-decades-after-A
DOMA

D’oh
D’oh
D’oh
D’oh
DOMA
