Special thanks to Jared R. Pike.

To the homophobes and haters,
To the down low fornicators,
To promoters of misogyny,
And haters of androgyny.

We've got to work together
Dedicated to help each other
Lesbians and straight men and
Gay men and straight women.

Don't know how you stand there preaching hate behind your Bible,
Spreading all those lies, spewing slander, spouting libel.
If Jesus were to come back, I imagine he'd be pissed.
His messages were peace and love, a concept you have missed.

We've got to work together
Dedicated to help each other
Lesbians and straight men and
Gay men and straight women.

Why are people so freaked out by people who are tran?
'Oh my God! Is she/he/it a woman or a man?'
Does it really matter what's between a person's legs?
So obsessed with making all the round holes take square pegs.

We've got to work together
Dedicated to help each other
Lesbians and straight men and
Gay men and straight women.

And there are gays and straights who go on hating the bisexual,
Believing all the stereotypes and fears so ineffectual.
'They're confused!' 'It's so greedy!' 'They're not worthy of your trusting!'
Do you really want to go through life so ignorant and disgusting?

We've got to work together
Dedicated to help each other
Lesbians and straight men and
Gay men and straight women.

Do you have a problem? Do you want to smash my face?
Do you want to beat me so that I will know my place?
Or maybe you'll just kill me--send a message clear and blatant.
You hate me 'cause deep down you know your gayness is so latent.

We've got to work together
Dedicated to help each other
Lesbians and straight men and
Gay men and straight women.

How you would treat yourself is how you should treat others.
You've got to learn to lift up your sisters and your brothers.
Don't give up hope--this hate will never last.
Falls out, decays, becomes ideals of past.

My point's it doesn't matter who you lust and who you love.
It's really no one's business so we need to rise above.
There are certainly bigger problems that are needing our attention.
So stop the hate and educate! This is an intervention!

We've got to work together
Dedicated to help each other
Lesbians and straight men and
Gay men and straight women.

We've got to work together
Dedicated to help each other
Lesbians and straight men and
Gay men and straight women.

If you do not make a decent living as a chararacter acter, there is something very very wrong with this world. Well, there are things wrong anyway, but never the fuck mind that. Keep showing your distinctive features to the camera and be as charming as you can while dealing with your employers [fuck, I couldn't, I would end up kiling someone if I had to work the trade you are].

Peace. You don't remember me, but I sure do you [I change my tag in the youtube every couple months]

Peace.

[JerbyVids]

@poppingsounds Thank you :)

:S wtf.. Not all Straight people are bad and also not most of straight people.. Atleast not in my personal circle. I'm a Rocker from Amsterdam and gay people are well respected in Amsterdam. We have the gay pride and all.

I'm a Straight person and i don't hate gay people.. People like Neil22100 say Straight Men are evil.. srry if you don't want people to put you in the corner start with yourself..

Keep on Rocking in a free world

@happykupo13 I do not agree with those who hate straight people. I think that's just as wrong as hating a gay person. Bigotry is bigotry and sadly, some gay people just don't get that--like neil22100.

[alicat1014]

neil, i'm christian and love all homosexuals :)

there are always outliers to every generalization. not all straight men are evil? and not all christians are haters.

[JerbyVids]

Thank you! :)

lmao dude, you rock

No. The first case of AIDS was documented in the US, but the origins came from Africa.

Please. The only reason for so much hate in this world is for ignorance, just like you have displayed.

Why don't you look outside your own world for once, and check the real world outside. You might learn something. Your teacher sounds like an idiot too. Millions of people the world over have protested for a cure.

Its going to be a shock... but gay people are human too.

This vid is awesome and it has a very positive message that we should all follow. I love all ur vids. I think ur positively adorable. I wish I could find someone as open-minded and accepting as u to date. I love all ur music vids. they are all good, some of them are kinda funny like the rachel ray part in "vampire drag queen". Absolutly love ur vids

[MarkieWatch100]

Great video, message and song! Love it!

[neil22100]

they said sorry i almost lost my life over them, so sorry if you think i'm ignorant but i'm not just hurt!

[neil22100]

really! I'm not the one who beats up gays i love gays, maybe when the new generation come thing will be difference then all straight men won't be such a asshole like they are today! there is hope for the future but everything will change in the next generation but not this one, you have not had my life with straight men you live where? If its usa then your lucky because gays get good treatment there maybe not full but better then they do in the uk! the only time i would like striaght men if
