Simon & Milo Be As
Julie wants to get out of town
She needs to settle down
Move to a place where
No one knows her
Lisa just had to get away
Nothing could make her stay
Tired of living
Under cover
Everybody knows
Somebody trying to get free
Be as white as you want to
Be as black as you want to
Be as brown as you want to
Don't let anybody stop you
Be as straight as you want to
Be as gay as you want to
You can wait if you want to
We all need something to hold on to
And if there is a way
That you and I could both be free
Have a little understanding
And we'll be
Daniel moved to another school
Alliances can be cruel
When you're alone
Without nobody
Michael begged Jen to take a stand
And fight for the love they had
But she'd rather deal
With being lonely
Everybody's got
Somebody telling them what to be
Be as white as you want to
Be as black as you want to
Be as brown as you want to
Don't let anybody stop you
Be as straight as you want to
Be as gay as you want to
You can wait if you want to
We all need something to hold on to
And if there is a way
That you and I could both be free
Have a little understanding
And we will be
And if there is a way
That you and I could both be free
Have a little understanding
And we will be
Be as white as you want to
Be as black as you want to
Be as brown as you want to
Don't let anybody stop you
Be as straight as you want to
Be as gay as you want to
You can wait if you want to
We all need something to hold on to
Be as shy as you want to
Be as loud as you want to
Be as small as you want to
Don't let anybody stop you
Be as thin as you want to
Be as fat as you want to
Be as short as you want to
We all need someone to hold on to
Be as white as you want to
Be as black as you want to
Be as brown as you want to
