You want to be happy and I do too
So I live my life as I do to
See us be free as we can be
When we insist on being you and me
A right considered a privilege by
Those so afraid they would rather die
Than live and love the way we do
But I know what is up and so do you
We would rather live than dance on a string
We want to be free that is the thing
We live and love all day and night
We want to be happy and we are right
I will do everything I can that we
Be happy and that we will be free
Though I am old and crazy now
I know that we will be and I know how
And so I will fight with all of my might
For us being happy being free
Then those afraid will have to see
When we insist on being you and me
Our insistence is our resistance of
Fear by our persistence in living our love
