I’ve been hearing a lot about Lady Gaga and yet had never heard any of her songs. Alright already, I’m over 50!

Anyway … the other day I watched her video on facebook of the song “Born This Way” and found it really  creative and super great lyrics! I would have loved to have been born to a woman who said that I was perfect and told me to love who I am. Imagine how wonderful the world would be if we all raised our children to love themselves as they are!

I’m not sure if this is the whole song but here are some of the lyrics (copied from http://www.metrolyrics.com/born-this-way-lyrics-lady-gaga.html ….. so don’t blame me if these are not exactly right! I’ve hi-lighted the parts that I really liked for your reading pleasure!)

It doesn’t matter if you love him, or capital H-I-M
Just put your paws up
‘Cause you were born this way, baby

My mama told me when I was young
We’re all born superstars
She rolled my hair, put my lipstick on
In the glass of her boudoir

“There’s nothin’ wrong with lovin’ who you are”
She said, “‘Cause He made you perfect, babe”
“So hold your head up, girl and you you’ll go far,
Listen to me when I say”

I’m beautiful in my way,
‘Cause God makes no mistakes
I’m on the right track, baby
I was born this way

Don’t hide yourself in regret,
Just love yourself and you’re set
I’m on the right track, baby
I was born this way
(Born this way)

Ooo, there ain’t no other way
Baby, I was born this way
Baby, I was born this way
(Born this way)
Ooo, there ain’t other way
Baby, I was born this way
I’m on the right track, baby
I was born this way

Don’t be a drag, just be a queen
Don’t be a drag, just be a queen
Don’t be a drag, just be a queen
Don’t be!

Give yourself prudence and love your friends
Subway kid, rejoice the truth
In the religion of the insecure
I must be myself, respect my youth

A different lover is not a sin
Believe capital H-I-M (hey, hey, hey)
I love my life, I love this record and
Mi amore vole fe yah

I’m beautiful in my way,
‘Cause God makes no mistakes
I’m on the right track, baby
I was born this way

Don’t hide yourself in regret,
Just love yourself and you’re set
I’m on the right track, baby
I was born this way
