Johnny, Are You Queer

Go-Go's · Return To The Valley Of The Go-Go's [1994]

Johnny what's the deal boy?

Is your love for real boy?

When the lights are low

You never hold me close



Well I saw you today boy

Walking with the gay boys

God it hurt me so

Now I gotta know

Johnny are you queer?



'Cause when I see you

Dancing with your friends

I can't help wondering

Where I stand



I'm so afraid I'll lose you

If I can't seduce you

Is there something wrong?

Johnny come on strong



Oh why are you so weird boy?

Johnny are you queer boy?

When I make a play

You push me away

Johnny are you queer?



'Cause when I see you

Dancing with your friends

I can't help wondering

Where I stand



Johnny you're forsaking

A love you could be taking

I wanna give it to you

But you never come through



Oh why are you so weird boy?

Johnny are you queer boy?

When you asked for a date

I thought that you were straight

Johnny are you queer?



Oh Johnny are you queer boy?

Johnny are you queer?

Tell me, Johnny are you queer?

Tell me, Johnny are you queer?

Johnny are you queer?
