Lady Gaga, Born This Way, Listen

Lady Gaga, Born This Way

Intro

It doesn’t matter if you love him, or capital H-I-M

Just put your paws up

’cause you were Born This Way, Baby

Verse

My Mama told me when I was young

We are all born superstars

She rolled my hair and put my lipstick on

In the glass of her boudoir

“There’s nothing wrong with lovin’ who you are”

She said, “Cause he made you perfect, babe.”

“So hold your head up girl and you’ll go far,

Listen to me when I say”

Chorus

I’m beautiful in my way

Cause God makes no mistakes

I’m on the right track baby

I was born this way

Don’t hide yourself in regret

Just love yourself and you’re set

I’m on the right track baby

I was born this way

Post-Chorus

Ooo there ain’t no other way

Baby I was born this way

Baby I was born this way

Ooo there ain’t no other way

Baby I was born this way

Baby I was born this way

Ooo there ain’t no other way

Baby I was born this way

I’m on the right track baby

I was born this way

Don’t be a drag, just be a queen

Don’t be a drag, just be a queen

Don’t be!

Verse

Give yourself prudence

And love your friends

Subway kid, rejoice your truth

In the religion of the insecure

I must be myself, respect my youth

A different lover is not a sin

Believe capital H-I-M (hey hey hey)

I love my life I love this record and

Mi amore vole fe yah (love needs faith)

Repeat Chorus and Post-chorus

Bridge

Don’t be a drag, be a queen

Whether you’re broke or evergreen

You’re black, white, beige chola descent

You’re Lebanese, You’re Orient

Whether life’s disabilities

Left you outcast, bullied or teased

Rejoice and love yourself today

Cause baby you we’re born this way

No matter gay, straight, or bi

Lesbian, transgendered life

I’m on the right track baby

I was born to survive

No matter black, white or beige

Chola or Orient made

I’m on the right track baby

I was born to be brave

Repeat Chorus

Outro/Refrain

I was born this way hey!

I was born this way hey!

I’m on the right track baby

I was born this way hey!

I was born this way hey!

I was born this way hey!

I’m on the right track baby

I was born this way hey!

Crazy Thunderstorm Damage

We had a crazy thunderstorm, 76 mph winds, quarter size hail, and lots of damage all over the area.

It was so loud I thought it was a tornado, the wind picked up a bit and it sarted raining hard. I was about to leave for the post office, but thought I would wait for the rain to slow down first, when suddenly it got pitch black out, the wind was blowing so hard you couldn’t see anything out the window. It sounded like a train was coming, and hail started pounding the roof and windows. We went into the bathroom because it has no windows. Then smash, the bedroom window shattered and all we could do is listen as rain, hail, and wind whistled in.

After the storm passed, which was only a few minutes, the cable was out for hours. 16 units in my building had broken windows, trees were down all over. Thousands in the area were without power, but we were lucky to still have ours. There was damage all over the area, trees down, cars destroyed, roofs blown off. It was a mess.

Memorial Day Remembering Things

Bradford Town Hall, the site of many family, friend, and town events, growing up.

She’s for sale, very run down, and in need of a paintjob.

My Grandmother’s sorority used to meet here. I registered my first car here.

My Mom’s wedding was here, as was many family reunions,

Bradford Days, and family n friends weddings too. At one event the light fell from

 the ceiling and landed on a pregnant woman who was fine, and the party went on.

Remembering things in the past is fun. Walking down memory lane. A little bit of nostalgia.

I hope whoever buys her keeps her the way she was, it should be designated historic, and I have no idea why it is not.
