Monday morning woke up free All I wanted was to be me Smoked a joint that got me high High as I could be Passed some straights who screamed "Hey Fag!" Brought me down, what a drag Punched a hole in my gay bag Just could not be me And it's getting tighter day by day Nothing getting lighter in any way Just could not be free Just could not be me Met some machos on my block They hassled me with macho mock Cos I ain't no macho rock Just could not be me Jocks from Jersey passing by Threw a rock, I don't know why I got stoned but I lost my high Just could not be free And it's getting tighter day by day Nothing getting lighter in any way Just could not be free Just could not be me Tired of acting like a clown Listen, can't you hear the sound It's time to put the oppressors down So we can be free So I can be me
