Chat GPT prompt: "Write a song called Christmas at the Gay Bar"

This was one of the ones where I generated it a bunch of times and picked the "best" (worst?!) sections to construct the song. I found it interesting and terrifying that the AI returned results that related to the fear that LGBTQ+ people are experiencing with the recent increase in hateful rhetoric and real world violence.

But I'm also just pretty happy with how this song came out. I kind of hate it but it's a banger.

lyrics

VERSE
It’s Christmas Eve and I’m heading to the club
Time to dance and drink some egg nog
All the gays are out in our holiday best
Here we can be ourselves without any stress

CHORUS
It’s Christmas at the gay bar
So raise a glass if you know who you are
Christmas at the gay bar
Spreading holiday cheer from near and far

It’s Christmas at the gay bar
We’re gonna make it a night to remember
Christmas at the gay bar
Gonna dance til the end of December

VERSE

CHORUS
A holiday night of fun and vice
Santa Clause knows if you’re naughty or nice
We can make the yule tide gay
We don’t care what they say

BRIDGE

It’s Christmas eve and we’re all here
At our favorite bar with our friends so dear
We’ve been through so much this year
But tonight we’re gonna let go of our fears
