Will Roland -"Straight Guy's Lament" by Zach Zadek Lyrics

{Will Roland}

I met this guy,
I met this girl,
We hit it off at first glance
Every look was filled with mutual attraction

I'd call her cute she'd blush and smile
I we'd talk for hours on end
It was so written in the stars

Her closest friend
Her favorite pal
Lived three houses from her
They'd cuddle up and laugh about J-Lo
They'd cuddle up signaling their bond
Had a weird love of P!nk
Her greatest friend in the world

Sure, their time together was a display
But I didn't have a single word to say

Cause I thought he was gay
Or should I say
I just assumed he didn't swing that way
Never thought the girl I loved would pull a classic double play
He's supposed to be gay
Not ok
All my fantasies taken away
Maybe it's the signs I was dismissing
I didn't see the picture of them kissing

La la la la la la
La la la la la la
La la la la
La la la la

And time went by from weeks to months
Each day a beacon of love
It didn't seem odd that she could never get together
Still we'd flirt and sleepover
Said sweet dreams every night
It seemed like we were meant to be

The other guy
The poor mentioned friend
Would hold her hand every day
They'd go fashion shows and "sleepovers" together

Her profile pic was of him and her on a merry go round
With the caption that read "May 2009"

Sure her Facebook never said she's single
But that gives him no license to get to mingle

Cause I thought he was gay
Or should I say
Just assumed he didn't swing that way
Never thought the girl I loved would pull a classic double play
He's supposed to be gay
Not ok
All my fantasies taken away
Maybe you were looking for an escape
Still it's hard to ignore a bunch of sex tapes

I'm waiting on 31st
At a Starbucks in the city
I saw them through the window with her dressed up real pretty
He ate a cross the table
There's no way this is true
His lips mouthed those dreaded words
"Baby, I love you!"
And with a single diamond ring
Her fate was sealed
And my feelings didn't mean a thing

Cause he wasn't gay
Or should I say
They've been together everyday
Those good morning messages had simply been one way
No, he wasn't gay
Just her fiance
And my passions fade away

Then I waved
And she smiled
And he waved
You know that gay wave with the five fingers that goes like this...

And I left their gate
I finally knew
The curse of being straight
