Hey Illinois!

We may not have won in the summer, but I'm hoping that we get the marriage equality soon now that DOMA has been ruled unconsitutional (and hopefully ENDA even sooner).  So here goes my own rebel yell and song parody in favor of equality.  (Billy Idol will just have to forgive me.)

Hey Illinois, what you gonna do?
Hey Illinois, all eyes are now on you.
Hey Massachusetts, show us how it's done.
Hey Massachusetts, you were number one.
Hey Illinois, do the right thing!

It's a nice day to live the dream
It's a nice day for a gay wedding
It's a nice day to live the dream

Hey Illinois, it would be sublime
Hey Illinois, Iowa turned out fine
Hey Illinois, do the right thing! (Oh yeah!)
Hey Illinois, marriage equality now
Hey Illinois, do the right thing!

It's a nice day to live the dream
Come on, it's a nice day for a gay wedding
It's a nice day to live the dream!

(Pick it up.)

Do the right thing!

Hey Illinois, equality is great
Hey Illinois, we need it in our state
We've all been waiting for so long, so long
We've all been waiting for so long, so long
We've been patient for so long

It's a nice day to live the dream
Come on, it's a nice day for a gay wedding
It's a nice day to live the dream!

We need fair in this world
We need safe in this world
We need equality in this world
We need equality in this world
Help create equality in this world
Do the right thing!

It's a nice day to live the dream
Come on, it's a nice day for a gay wedding
It's a nice day to live the dream!
Do the right thing!
