Chicago needs a better mission statement.
Okay, how did President Trump decide on the YMCA song?


In the lyrics to “Y.M.C.A.” Village People add to the normal mission statement for the Young Men’s Christian Association revealing you can “find many ways to have a good time,” one of which is hanging out “with all the boys.” To hear Village People founder Victor Willis talk about the track though, the line was not a covert message to those in the LGBTQ+ community but instead, a “song about everyone.”

Young man, there’s no need to feel down
I said, young man, pick yourself off the ground
I said, young man, ’cause you’re in a new town
There’s no need to be unhappy
Young man, there’s a place you can go
I said, young man, when you’re short on your dough
You can stay there, and I’m sure you will find
Many ways to have a good time
It’s fun to stay at the Y.M.C.A.
It’s fun to stay at the Y.M.C.A.
They have everything for you men to enjoy
You can hang out with all the boys
