----------------------
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
