i'll dance where
i want to
i'll scream
i'll yell
if i pleaz
cause
i got the right
to be what
i want to be
so
why you keep tryin'
to hold me down

try and tell me
i can't walk down an aisle
can't wed
can't do this and that
can only do it
if i'm straight like you
who wants a world
of Bush clones
seperation of church and state
so don't tell me
i can't do it
that i don't the right to
b/c i'm a sinner
are you mr. perfect

tell me
you never had sexxx
before you wore white
that you never lied
or cheated
or went against
everything your God taught you
but wasn't God the one
who said do not judge
let thou who is perfect
throw the fist stone

so
by judgin' me
for what i do
in my private life
you're just as bad as me
and goin' to hell
along with everyone else

so
don't tell me
as an american citzen
payin' my taxes
workin' my job
just like you
that i can't have the freedom of choice
to be what i want to be
do what i want to do
