Shame

“You should be fucking careful with talking and raising yourself above Gay Pride.” - Skam S03e05

There is no shame in sex.

No, there is no shame in sex.

Now I may put some blame

On the bus or the train

For coming home late on a school day - Monday,

But there is no shame in sex.

There is no shame in sex.

No, there is no shame in sex.

I'll leave my dirt with my shoes at the door,

Is that enough to not be seen as a whore?

I'll wear a clean shirt and tuck in my label,

God forbid I upturn your neat dinner table!

God is so last year, fuck your mortification,

And if there is God then don't dare curse his creation,

Because there is no shame in gay consummation.

There is no shame in sex.

No, there is no shame in sex.

You can hold back the rain,

I've no sins to be cleansed of.

Yes, I may give some guilt for the lies I pretend on

But in my defence, it is you who takes offence.

It is you who will cry if I come on the thigh of the guy - my consenting lover.

It is you who sees crime in the jovial times of one boy and another, Mother.

It is somewhat more pleasant to pretend than offend,

But do not be mistaken, I have no shame to be taken.
