[Verse 1]
They tell her it's a sin, but so is lyin'
But the love is so strong, that she is in, that there ain't no denyin'
Curiosity is no longer on her list
Even though all the books try to tell her that she don't exist
Well, can you see the sadness on her face when she smiles?
Should she partake, and try to live in her denial?
Such a perfect couple, but not a perfect situation
But you don't know, nah, you don't know, nah, you don't know the shit she's facing
She could try to find a man, and search and search the world
But the man of her dreams is a girl
[Chorus]
And she cries: "Mama they're trying to tell me how to feel
And I can't take it anymore
Well, mama, they're trying to tell me how to feel
And I can't fake it any longer"
[Verse 2]
They tell her it's a sin, but so is lyin'
And she tried and tried the ways of the world, but it just ain't satisfyin'
And curiosity is no longer on her list
Even though all the movies tell her that she don't exist
Well, tie a pretty ribbon 'round your lies, and call it promise
And tell her you won't judge her when she's just being honest
You can take your finger from your lips, it's no longer a secret
Although it used to be, it's just too obvious to keep it
She could try to find a man, and search and search the world
But the man of her dreams is a girl
[Chorus]
And she cries: "Mama they're trying to tell me how to feel
And I can't take it anymore
Well, mama, they're trying to tell me how to feel
And I can't fake it any longer, yeah"
"Well, mama, they're trying to tell me how to feel
And I can't take it anymore
Well, mama, they're trying to tell me how to feel
And I can't fake it any longer, yeah"
[Outro]
She's in love with a girl, but it's not of curiosity, yeah (No, no)
She's in love with a girl, but it's not curiosity, yeah (Curiosity)
