Be As Lyrics - Singles - Simon And Milo

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 

Na na na 

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
