JO JO RABBIT

Comb your hair. That’s the way, Jo jo. Tighten belt. It’s your day, Jo Jo.

Click your heels. Lead the way, Jo Jo. Save the day. Hip-hip-hooray, Jo Jo.

 

Jo Jo has a rabbit, the rabbit has Jo Jo

And mommy has such pretty shoes hanging in the air

The gay boys now must do their best to fight the enemy

While hiding in a room upstairs—the only love for me

All things love me, all things love me

All things love me, all things must love me now

Yes, you can, yes, you can, yes, you can, baby! (repeat)

 

Surprise, surprise, your shoelaces are once again undone

One day, you’ll know, my sweet Jo Jo, that she’s the only one

Your tummy full of butterflies, you’ll think of nothing else

Promise, my son, my one true one, you’ll never blame yourself

All things love me, all things love me

All things love me, all things must love me now

Yes, you can, yes, you can, yes, you can, baby! (repeat)

 

Elsa, we cannot marry. There’s one thing that I know:

In love we need nothing but this: to let each other go

Like birds, our true language is song, like crystals, glass, and gold

All the shiny things in life we dream that one day we may hold

All things love me, all things love me

All things love me, all things must love me now

Yes, you can, yes, you can, yes, you can, baby! (repeat)

 

What did they do? What could they do when it was time to go?

At the very most, are we not ghosts, just praying not to know?

Is it dangerous, Jo Jo, out there? Extremely, I’m afraid

When we are free, what will we be? Just say you’ll dance with me

All things love me, all things love me

All things love me, all things must love me now

Yes, you can, yes, you can, yes, you can, baby! (repeat)

 

Let everything happen to you—both the beauty and the fear

And to say thanks, when free just dance, and know that I am near

As long as there’s someone alive, then surely they must lose

In happiness we find the rest and I live on in you

All things love me, all things love me

All things love me, all things must love me now

Yes, you can, yes, you can, yes, you can, baby! (repeat)
