    Lyrics:
    What makes them think they have the right
    To say what God considers vice
    What makes them think they have the right
    To keep us out of paradise
    They make our lives hell here on earth
    Poisoning us with guilt and shame
    If we resist, torment awaits
    So our love dares not speak its name
    The crime is when love must hide
    From now on we'll love with pride
    We're not afraid to be queer and different
    If that means hell, well hell we'll take the chance
    They're all so straight, uptight, upright and rigid
    They march in lock-step, we prefer to dance
    We see a world of romance and of pleasure
    All they can see is sheer banality
    Lavender nights our greatest treasure
    Where we can be just who we want to be
    Round us all up, send us away
    That's what you'd really like to do
    But we're too strong, proud, unafraid
    In fact we almost pity you
    You act from fear, why should that be
    What is it that you're frightened of
    The way that we dress, the way that we meet
    The fact that you cannot destroy our love
    We're going to win our rights
    To lavender days and nights
    We're not afraid to be queer and different
    If that means hell, well hell we'll take the chance
    They're all so straight, uptight, upright and rigid
    They march in lock-step, we prefer to dance
    We see a world of romance and of pleasure
    All they can see is sheer banality
    Lavender nights our greatest treasure
    Where we can be just who we want to be
    Lavender nights our greatest treasure
    Where we can be just who we want to be

      @@TJ-um8ce Dude, have you been living under a rock? Republicans have been amping up anti-lgbt legislature so the lgbtq+ community have been having to fight tooth and nail to not only gain rights, but to keep the ones they only recently received [when Obama was in office] You got book banning and potential burning out the wazoo, alt right podcasters from the Daily Liar excuse me,...I mean Wire...spreading hate and misinformation painting people who just wanna live their lives in peace like everyone else as these evil predators [when obvi that's slander to fuel fear and hate] We have said podcasters, Bible thumping zealots and elected officials trying to ban books that are seen as "Woke" because gods forbid kids learn people in the LGBTQ+ community exist and are just as human as we are and have a supreme court rigged with trump elected judges salivating at "owning the libs/make libs miserable" at the expense of marginalizing fellow Americans to pander to their entitled, hateful, conservative donors [one said donor being married to an insurrectionist c*nt] Right now what's going on is if the Satanic Panic and Red Scare [ with a hint of fascism] had a baby and fed on steroids. SO to answer your question and reiterate, they want to win their rights to exist, be seen and heard like everyone else whereas conservative extremists are trying to figuratively Thanos snap them out of existence and will if they get their way.

    I saw you perform this for the first time at the Jubilee in Edmonton in 2023. I never knew about this song. So, after a very toxic and abusive experience teaching at Edmonton Public Schools which is a very phobic and sexist environment to work in, in being newly out, almost 40, I remember being in the line up to get in and I started crying. I felt safe. After months of hell I finally felt safe. I truly understood for the first time what a safe space was. I cried throughout your whole show. When you sang this song I could feel the power behind it. You introduced it with such respect and grace. Jinkx I’ll never forget this as long as I live. A new core memory. Thank you so very much for your commitment to your art. Love you so much. Can’t wait to fly over to see you at Carnegie!!!! ❤️🏳️‍🌈⚧️🏳️‍⚧️💜

    I love this song, Jinx ur voice is amazing, the musical composition was spectacular and the lyrics strong and proud. I hope everyone shares this, and the message that this song contains. I am straight 55 yr old woman, and I love drag! I love what you all do and the joy and love you bring to each other. Everyone should be allowed to be themselves without being persecuted, harassed, harmed, or banned from living the life they want. As long as it isnt hurting anyone else, let people alone. Mind ur own biz. All u big people up in Washington need to worry more bout these mass shootings than anything else. Im afraid to go to the bank, the mall, even church.. yes theres mass shootings in churches too. But I wil go to a gay bar, or drag show..I feel safe there I tell ya, and love the fun. I have met so many people who are gay, trans, or binary or whatever, and they got the biggest hearts, and love for me than anyone I know. I love my friends, and watching one go thru transition was a privilege,she didnt even tell her family, so happy I was there to hold her hand. And she is living life to the fullest now. Well enuff from me I love you Jinx. So proud of you and your work. I love that lil black cat statue in the video by the way.. i got a thing for black cats, my cat Amy is 15 yrs old now, just love her. The next black cat i get im going to name Strange Magic., Stranger or Magic for short., cute yes or no? lol

    Today, the Japanese parliament passed a bill called "Promoting a better understanding of LGBT." However, this bill treats sexual minorities like criminals. It can promote discrimination and segregation of people by SOGI. Now I'm full of anger. We should continue to fight against them for our human rights. We should protect trans folks from their attack. "The Lavender Song" by you saves me from despair and encourages me. Thank you so much, Jinkx! I love you from Japan.

    Oh my God, The Lavender Song!!!!! The first original LGBTQ+ rights anthem!
    I literally first learnt about this song last year. Listened to both first old German recording and modern day English translation and was absolutely obsessed. I particularly loved Mischa Spoliansky's cover of it. As a history buff I appreciated this song.
    To see Mama Monsoon, my favourite Drag Queen of all time, cover those song just fluttered my heart and makes me so freaking happy! Discovering this made my night!!!!
    Thankyou Jinkx for bringing this old time song, the first gay anthem in history, an important piece of gay rights history, to modern day audiences. It deserves the recognition and have it's harmony live on.

      and then came the Nazis. I like this rewritten version much better than the original. So now we are faced in amerikkka the perhaps of a neo-fascist take over. Who is going to know what will happen to all of us. I don't think we will sing our way out. But I love Jinkx she's great and let's hope will give a concert in Maimi.

This song closed out the evening most perfectly, an anthem to our power and strength, our queer pride!
