Sing Low, Sweet Cameron

Cameron is one of the more… noticeable… members of QUMS, the Queensland Uni Musical Society. I wrote this for him at SIV. Do I really need to reveal the song it’s filked from?

[January 2002]

Sing low, sweet Cameron
Gotta be the only gay bass

I went way up North and what did I see?
Gotta be the only gay bass
A gray-haired boy, only twenty and three
Gotta be the only gay bass

Thought I’d seen it all, but oh dear me!
Gotta be the only gay bass
He’s an island of smut in a Hansonite sea
Gotta be the only gay bass

They say SUMS are pooftas, SUMS are queer
Gotta be the only gay bass
But compared to Cameron they’re nowhere near!
Gotta be the only gay bass

All you straight laced basses, hear that rumbling sound,
Come and be another gay bass
Cos there ain’t e-nough altos to go a-round,
Come and be another gay bass!
