In Voters' Polls It Had Been Shown

In Voters’ Polls It Had Been Shown

In voters’ polls it had been shown

Gay marriage wasn’t popular;

(To leave the laws enough alone

For people being as they are)

As seeing there would be no good

In lawyers making a demand,

By making folks do as they should,

(And with a very heavy hand)

And yet the Federal Government

Decided to compel each State

To alter what marriage had meant

And make the gay legitimate.

The rules were altered of the game

To be no longer what they were

For, couples of the same-sex came,

To marry just like him and her.

They’ve legalized it in the Court

To be something it never was,

That leaves us nowhere to resort,

By imposing new laws on us.

The Courts are playing politics

Selecting laws they’d legislate,

But powers aren’t meant to mix

In who’s to be whosever mate.

The outcome of this now is that

The baker has to bake a cake,

Which, handed down by caveat,

Is all for gay marriage’s sake,

While people lose their livelihood

Accused that they discriminate—

But who is it says that they should

Take part in it and celebrate?
