[Click here to listen to a snipette of The Word Is Out.]

You can’t tell a widow who refuses to weep
You can’t tell a woman who lives on the street
You can’t tell a boy with the back of your hand
You can’t tell a girl who plays in a band

You can’t tell your dad
‘Cause he’s too out of touch
You can’t tell any man by listening too much
You can’t tell your mother
‘Cause she won’t understand
Why her girl’s a boy, soon to be a man

Do, dare or die, but don’t you doubt
We’re everywhere and the word is out
We love who we choose, our choices, our own
Love is a freedom, so let it be known

They say life’s unfair, but love can be worse
When small minds rule, then humanity’s cursed
Victors and victims, divided and spoiled
You know it makes no difference
If you’re a boy or a girl

You can’t dare deny this burning desire
You can’t be cool when you’re playing with fire
You can’t get down without rising above
You can’t be told who you can or can’t love

You can’t stuff a suit and still be alive
You can’t give in to pain and expect to survive
You can’t wear a dress and not be called gay
But you can’t live your life any other way

Do, dare or die, but don’t you doubt
We’re everywhere and the word is out
We love who we choose, our choices, our own
Love is a freedom, so let it be known

Love is a freedom
  So let it be known
    Love is a freedom
      So let it be known
        Love is a freedom
          So let it be known
            Yeah, love is a freedom
              So let it be known
