The Acceptance Song lyrics

[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

[ALL]
Let us accept one another

[TRENT]
I know it’s truly hard

[ALL]
We're sister and brother

[TRENT]
Here's what I learned at Julliard
Bigotry’s not big of me
And it's not big of you

[ALL]
Let's all work together
To make rainbow dreams come true
[TRENT, 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 blow hole thing

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

[TRENT & DEE DEE]
And still they flap their soon-to-be dead wings

[ALL]
Let us accept one another

[TRENT]
Forget your politics

[ALL]
We're sister and brother

[TRENT]
So let's not be total di*ks
Bigotry's not big of me
And it's not big of you
[ALL]
Let’s all work together
To make rainbow dreams come true!

[TRENT, 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, accept me
Accept me!

[ALL]
Let us accept one another
Join our fight today
We’re sister and brother

[TRENT]
Make people hear us when we say

[ALL]
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]
Acceptance, acceptance
Acceptance, acceptance
Let's make rainbow dreams come true!

(spoken)
Acceptance!
