The Acceptance Song

[TRENT]
Flowers accept the rain
And grow more beautiful
Babies accept their mother's breast
So they can grow strong
I accept that I was born a handsome man
So join with me and sing this acceptance song

Let us accept one another
I know it's truly hard
We're sister and brother
Here's what I learned at Juilliard

Bigotry's not big of me
And it's not big of you
Let's all work together
To make rainbow dreams come true

(spoken)
Ladies and Gentlemen, two-time Tony Award winner, Miss Dee Dee Allen!

[DEE DEE]
Acorns accept the sun
And turn to mighty oaks
Sperm whales accept fresh sea air
Through their blowhole thing

[TRENT]
Blowholes!
Bumblebees accept they'll die within a year

[TRENT & DEE DEE]
And still they flap their soon-to-be-dead wings
Let us accept one another

[TRENT]
Forget your politics
We're sister and brother
And so let's not be total dicks
Bigotry's not big of me
And it's not big of you
Let's all work together
To make rainbow dreams come true

(spoken)
Ladies and Gentlemen, the non-equity cast of Godspell and one-time Drama Desk winner, Barry Glickman

[BARRY]
Accept me
Accept me
Accept me
Accept me
Accept me
Accept me
Accept me

[ALL]
Let us accept one another
Join our fight today
We're sister and brother
Make people hear us when we say
Bigotry's not big of me
And it's not big of you
Let's all work together
Let's make a rainbow

[TRENT]
And make rainbow dreams come true

[ALL]
Accept us
Accept us
Accept us
Accept us
Accept us
Let's make rainbow dreams come true
Acceptance!
