Julie, Wants To Get Out Of Town.
She Needs To Settle Down.
Move To A Place Where No One Knows Her.
Lisa, Just Has To Get Away.
Nothing Could Make Her Stay.
Tired Of Living Undercover.
Everybody Loves Somebody Trying To Get Free.
(*CHORUS*)
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'll 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.

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's Rather Deal With Being Lonely.
Everybody's Got Somebody Telling Them What To Be.
*CHORUS*
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.

((kids Talking))

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.
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'll 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 Big As You Want To,
Be As Fat As You Want To,
Be As Strong As You Want To...
