----------------------                                                          
The institution don't like me                                                   
They don't even know my name                                                    
All they do is look at my clothes                                               
And they know I'm not the same                                                  
But that's alright                                                              
It's alright with me                                                            
They don't understand I have the right to be free                               
                                                                                
CHORUS: Be yourself                                                             
        Be yourself, everybody                                                  
        Be yourself, just be who you are                                        
        Be yourself                                                             
        Be yourself, everyone                                                   
        Be yourself, don't let them push you too far                            
                                                                                
The conformists try to put you down                                             
They try to curb your ways                                                      
They's rather run the corner gun                                                
Now I know to fear the game                                                     
And that's alright                                                              
It's alright with me                                                            
Because there's enough of us to fight to be free                                
                                                                                
(horns - The Sugar Daddies)                                                     
(guitar solo - Gil)                                                             
                                                                                
CHORUS                                                                          
                                                                                
Some people don't realize                                                       
The danger in their trends                                                      
It only brings on prejudice                                                     
And it's hard to meet new friends                                               
And that's no good                                                              
It's no good at all                                                             
It took so long for us to rise, don't let this be our fall                      
                                                                                
CHORUS                                                                          
CHORUS                                                                          
                                                                                
THE END
