I'M A SHY GIRL, MY MOTHER CALLS ME FLATCHEST,
|
I'M A HEAVY BOY, MY FATHER CALLS ME A FATHEAD,
|
I'M A SMALL GUY, MY FRIENDS CALL ME AN ARMREST,
|
I'M A BIG GIRL, THE BOYS CALL ME A WATERBED.
|
|
I LOVE ALL OF ME, I LOVE ALL OF ME,
|
I LOVE ALL OF ME, I JUST WANNA BE.
|
|
I'M A YELLOW GIRL, YOU CHOOSE TO CALL ME SLANTED EYES,
|
I'M A WHITE BOY WHO FIGHTS FOR HIS ROOTS AND TIES,
|
I'M A RED WOMAN WHO CRIES OVER HER CHILD'S HUNGER,
|
I'M A BLACK MAN WHO'S COME TO TERMS WITH HIS ANGER.
|
|
I LOVE ALL OF ME, I LOVE ALL OF ME,
|
I LOVE ALL OF ME, I JUST WANNA BE.
|
|
I'M A NOMAD WHO WRITES HIS WORDS IN SAND,
|
I'M AN ABORIGINE WHO WISHES TO SAVE HIS CLAN,
|
I'M ALL PEOPLE WHO CRY FOR THEIR LAND,
|
PEOPLE OF THE WORLD WALKING HAND IN HAND.
|
|
I LOVE ALL OF ME,
|
(I love all - love me)
|
I LOVE ALL OF ME,
|
(I love all - love me)
|
I LOVE ALL OF US,
|
(I love all - love me)
|
WE JUST WANNA BE.
|
|
LIVE AND LET LIVE, LIVE AND LET LIVE,
|
LIVE AND LET LIVE, LIVE AND LET LIVE
|
|
"PHEW, THE CROSS WE CARRY IS SO HEAVY.
|
I WANNA SIT DOWN FOR A SECOND. DO YOU MIND?
|
NOT LIE DOWN, JUST SIT DOWN,
|
NOT TOO LONG, JUST SO LONG.
|
HEY! I GOT AN I DARE, CAN'T WE JUST BURN THE CROSSES INSTEAD OF PEOPLE?
|
I HAPPEN TO THINK THAT'S HEALTHY, AND IT'S NOT BLASPHEMY.
|
SO BRUSH YOUR WINGS, SHINE YOUR RINGS,
|
AND WE CAN SING.
|
ARE YOU READY?"
|
|
I LOVE ALL OF ME,
|
(I love all - love me)
|
I LOVE ALL OF ME,
|
(I love all - love me)
|
I LOVE ALL OF US,
|
(I love all - love me)
|
WE JUST WANNA BE.
|
|
ONCE MORE!
|
|
I LOVE ALL OF ME,
|
(I love all - love me)
|
I LOVE ALL OF ME,
|
(I love all - love me)
|
I LOVE ALL OF US,
|
(I love all - love me)
|
WE JUST WANNA BE.
|
|
THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU.
