เพลง Q.U.E.E.N. (feat. Erykah Badu)

Q.U.E.E.N. (女王) - Janelle Monáe (加奈儿·梦奈)/Erykah Badu (艾瑞卡·巴度)

I can't believe I love the things they say about me

Walk in the room they throwing shade left to right

They be like ooh she's so fun 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

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

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 coming up don't cut me down

Yeah I 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 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 d**e

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 "
