Lyrics

[Verse 1]
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 undercover
[Verse 2]
Everybody knows somebody
Trying to get free
[Verse 3]
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 onto
[Verse 4]
And if there is a way
That you and I could both be free
Have a little understanding and we will be
[Verse 5]
Daniel moved to another school
Alliances can be cruel
When you're alone without nobody
Micheal begged Jen to take a stand
And fight for the love they had
But she'd rather deal with being lonely
[Verse 6]
Everybody's got somebody
Telling them what to be
[Verse 7]
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 onto
[Verse 8]
And if there is a way
That you and I could both be free
Have a little understanding and we will be
[Verse 9]
Na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na
[Verse 10]
Hi, I'm Sarah from Chicago, Illinois
Be as proud as you want to
[Verse 11]
Be a jock if you want to be
[Verse 12]
I'm Jamie from San Diego, California
[Verse 13]
My name's Dave
[Verse 14]
Be as black as you want
[Verse 15]
I'm from Vancouver, Canada
Be as shy as you want to
[Verse 16]
And I got to Washington High
[Verse 17]
Be as white as you want to
[Verse 18]
People expect you to be cool
[Verse 19]
Sucks how everybody bugs me at school
[Verse 20]
Be yourself
[Verse 21]
And if there is a way
That you and I could both be free
(If there is a way)
Have a little understanding and we will be
[Verse 22]
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 onto
[Verse 23]
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
