I want to be straight, I want to be straight I'm sick and tired of taking drugs and staying up late. I wanna confirm, I wanna conform I wanna be safe and I wanna be snug and I wanna be warm
I want to be straight, I want to be straight I wanna create a place of my own in the welfare state Brr, gonna be good, brr, gonna be kind It might be a wrench but think of the stench I'm leaving behind
I want to be straight, I want to be straight Come out of the cold and do what I'm told and don't deviate I wanna give, I wanna give, I wanna give my consent I'm learning to hate all the things that were great when I used to be bent!
