Q.u.e.e.n. (solidisco Remix) Lyrics - Janelle Monae

Girl 

this is craziness 

Let me tell you 

I can't believe all of the things they say about me 

Walk in the room they throwing shade left to right 

They be like 

"Ooh, she serving face" 

And I just tell 'em cut me up 

and get down 

They call us dirty 'cuz we break all your rules down 

And we just came to act a fool, is that all right? 

(Girl, that's alright) 

They be like 

"Ooh, let them eat cake. " 

But we eat wings and throw them bones on the ground

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

Am I a freak for dancing around? (queen) 

Am I a freak for getting down? (queen) 

I'm coming up, don't cut me down 

Yeah I wanna be, wanna be 

Is it peculiar that she twerk in the mirror? 

And am I weird to dance alone late at night? 

And is it true we're all insane? 

And I just tell 'em, "No we ain't" and get down 

I heard this life is just a play with no rehearsal 

I wonder will this be my final act tonight 

And tell me what's the price of fame? 

Am I a sinner with my skirt on the ground? 

Am I a freak for dancing around? 

Am I a freak for getting down? 

I'm coming up, don't cut me down 

Yeah I wanna be, wanna be 

Photos 

Hey brother can you save my soul from the devil? 

Say is it weird to like the way she wear her tights? 

And is it rude to wear my shades? 

Am I a freak because I love watching Mary? (Maybe) 

Hey sister am I good enough for your heaven? 

Say will your God accept me in my black and white? 

Will he approve the way I'm made? 

Or should I reprogram the programming and get down? 

Am I a freak for dancing around? 

Am I a freak for getting down? 

I'm cutting up, don't cut me down 

Yeah I wanna be, wanna be 

Even if it makes others uncomfortable 

I wanna love who I am 

Even if it makes other uncomfortable 

I will love who I am 

Dance 'til the break of dawn 

Don't mean a thing, so duh 

I can't take it no more 

Baby, we in tuxedo groove 

Monae and E. Badu 

Crazy in the black and white 

We got the drums so tight 

Baby, here comes the freedom song 

Too strong we moving on 

Baby there's melody 

Show you another way 

This joints for fight unknown 

Come home and sing your song 

But you gotta testify 

Because the booty don't lie 

No, no, the booty don't lie 

Oh no, the booty don't lie 

Yeah 

Yeah, let's flip it 

I don't think they understand what I'm trying to say 

I asked a question like this 

"Are we a lost generation of our people? 

Add us to equations but they'll never make us equal 

She who writes the movie owns the script and the sequel 

So why ain't the stealing of my rights made illegal? 

They keep us underground 

Working hard for the greedy 

But when it's time to pay 

They turn around and call us needy 

My crown too heavy like the Queen Nefertiti 

Gimme back my pyramid 

I'm trying to free Kansas City 

Mixing masterminds like your name Bernie Grundman 

Well I'm gonna keep leading like a young Harriet Tubman 

You can take my wings 

But I'm still goin' fly 

And even when you edit me the booty don't lie 

Yeah, keep singing and I'mma keep writing songs 

I'm tired of Marvin asking me 

"What's Going On? 

March to the streets 'cuz I'm willing and I'm able 

Categorize me, I defy every label 

And while you're selling dope 

We're gonna keep selling hope 

We rising up now 

You gotta deal you gotta cope 

Will you be electric sheep? 

Electric ladies, will you sleep? 

Or will you preach?
