about

thecrookedmustache is a cryptid that wonders around the lake in search
of beats that will make queers dance, and beats to help them to remember
who they were before the pandemic, and who they can be after it is over
with.

Description of music for D/deaf and hard of Hearing folks:
An electronic fusion bass keeps a medium steady tempo as an ethereal high-pitched synth plays solo notes in the background, an electronic fusion beat maker keeps an upbeat 4/4 tempo as well. All of these sounds blend together as thecrookedmustache gently sings and speaks the following lyrics. Other effects throughout the song are emphasized below in the lyrics for full effect.

lyrics

Gay Power Walks by the Lake
Takin Control of my fate
Fuck everything, last year
I’m done living, in that fear
----
(Electronic Fusion Upbeat Maker Begins after this Stanza)
Gay Power Walks by the Lake
Takin Control of my fate
Fuck everything, last year
I’m done living, in that fear
-----
Sometimes I carry my gayness with me
I keep in my pocket for no one to see
Sometimes I carry my gayness with me

I wear it proudly out on my sleeve
----
Queer spaces will exist once again
I remind myself that this isn’t the end
I may sit in my room, all alone
But for now all my friends reside in my phone
In my phone (x2)
In. My. Phone. (Emphasized/echoed)
----
Remember we are
All that we have
Even if we are all-- very sad
Remember we are
All that we have
So go be your own best gay dad
Best gay dad (x2)
Best. Gay. Dad. (Emphasized/echoed)
----
This is our year
So don’t frown
Remember we are here
Even if shit’s gone down.
Even if shit’s gone down. X2
Even. If. Shit’s. Gone. Down. (Emphasized/echoed)
----
Remember y’all deserve self-care
Breathe in some of that fresh winter air
We’ve made it this far

Solidarity crew.
We aren’t a queer community without you. (X3)
We aren’t a queer community without you. (Emphasized/echoed)
----
Remember we are
All that we have
Even if we are all-- very sad
Remember we are
All that we have
So go gay power walk
And work out those calves. (x3)
Work. those. calves. (Emphasized/echoed)
----
Gay Power Walks by the Lake
Takin Control of my fate
Fuck everything, last year
I’m done living, in that fear
(Electronic Fusion Upbeat Maker Stops after this Stanza)
In that fear (Emphasized/echoed)
