— Darryl Whitefeather

"Gettin' Bi" is a song performed by Darryl Whitefeather to his employees at his law firm. In the song he outs himself to everyone as a bisexual at a meeting. While he is proud and excited about the new chapter in his life no one at the firm actually cares. The song was first heard in the Season One episode "Josh is Going to Hawaii!". It is track number 17 on the Crazy Ex-Girlfriend: Original Television Soundtrack (Season 1 - Vol.2).

The song with lyrics

Lyrics: I don’t know how, I don’t know why, But I like ladies, And I like guys. I realize it’s a surprise, But now I see that that’s just me, It’s not like I even try. So if you ask me how I’m doing, Here is my reply: I’m g-g-g-g-getting bi! I’m getting bi! Oh yeah, I’m letting my bi flag fly! Not gonna hide it, not gonna lie, I’m a bi kinda guy, there’s no reason to be shy. My oh my, it’s a fact I can’t deny. I’m bi, bi, bi until the day I die. Now some may say, “Oh you’re just gay! Why don’t you just go gay all the way?” But that’s not it, ‘Cause bi’s legit. Whether you’re a he or a she, We might be a perfect fit. And one more thing, I tell you what, Being bi does not imply that you’re a player or a slut. Sure, I like sex. Please make him stop. But I’m no ho, I take things slow, until I feel at ease. So if you ask me how I’m doing, I’m feeling peppy, sprightly, spry, I’m g-g-g-g-getting bi! I’m getting bi! And it’s something I’d like to demystify. It’s not a phase, I’m not confused— Not indecisive— I don’t have the “gotta choose” blues. I don’t care if you wear high heels or a tie, You might just catch my eye Because I’m definitely bi. I’m getting bi! I’m getting bi! I’m getting bi! I’m getting bi! I’m getting bi! I’m getting bi! It doesn’t take an intellectual to get that I’m bisexual.
