I used to wonder why, when I went walking by
They talked about me, what could it be
They tried to break me, never could make me

Out in the streets, takin' all the heat
Dancin' in the sheets, oh yeah

I've got streaks in my hair, people point at me and stare
If they ask me I say yeah, I'm a freak
And I love the clothes I wear, let them laugh 'cause I don't care
It's my cross I'm proud to bear, I'm a freak

They call me crazy, it doesn't faze me
I'm doin' fine, they're doing time
They tried to break me, never could make me

Live like a fire, dancin' with desire
Walkin' on the wire, oh yeah

I've got streaks in my hair, people point at me and stare
If they ask me I say yeah, I'm a freak
And I love the clothes I wear, let them laugh 'cause I don't care
It's my cross I'm proud to bear, I'm a freak

I'm a freak, and I love what I see
I'm a freak, and I love being me, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Out in the streets, takin' all the heat
Dancin' in the sheets, oh yeah

I pledge allegiance, to the state of, independence

I've got streaks in my hair, people point at me and stare
If they ask me I say yeah, I'm a freak
And I love the clothes I wear, let them laugh 'cause I don't care
It's my cross I'm proud to bear, I'm a freak

I'm a freak, and I love what I see
I'm a freak, and I love being me
I'm a freak, and that's all I can be
I'm a freak, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

I pledge allegiance, to the state of, independence
