In Colorado There’s A Kid

In Colorado there’s a kid
    By birth a boy believes that he
A female has inside him hid
    And that in fact he is a she.

Wearing what little women wear
    Demanding only girls for play
Letting his blondish wispy hair
    Grow long in an unmanly way.

While everyone was ready to
    Accommodate this little boy
And did whatever was to do
    For Cory calling Cory, Coy,

Uncertain where it was to end
    They went along to get along
In unfamiliar ways to wend
    Until things started going wrong,

For when she said she had to go
    The girls’ room was the only place.
The school said absolutely “no!”
    So someone made a Federal case;

For activists had made the claim
    That Coy was made to suffer now
By having to make in the same
    Place boys were making—anyhow

That was the gist of it, and that
    Her civil rights were trampled on
Because the place where Coy was at
    Was not where Cory would have gone;
    
So as the court decreed the school
    Was in the wrong the case was won
By those who’d use a claim to rule
    And ride roughshod o’er everyone.
