Lyrics
Teachable Moments
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
They're wrong
You can love the one your heart's with
No matter what you're told about your choice
By any xenophobic hypocrites
Or small-minded misogynists
You're free
You are free
It's alright
There are those too slow to get along
Keep twisting their morality with sin
Remember life's too short to waste on them
And we're too smart to just condemn
We're free
We are free
Now if we could only give them
Something to believe
It's anybody's guess
Why some cling to prejudice and fear
For what they do not understand
Now there is nothing left but common sense
To wash away intolerance
And realize that love is all the same
And no one has the right
To legislate your life
They're wrong
