    Hey guys (*hug*) Thanks in advance for reading this.

    First off, i know this has been done to death, but i wanted to take a crack at it anyways. Im re-writing "If i were a boy" to "If i was just straight". I plan to attempt to sing it for you after its done too, hah. Either that or make someone with a beautiful voice sing it for me...

    This is Draft #1 :slight_smile: Tell me what you think! Some of it is sketchy when sung, and you may have to stretch a beat or two...but all will be fixed in time hah!

    If i was just straight

    If I was just straight
    Even just for a day
    I'd walk down the street in the evening
    And check out who I wanted to date

    Watch sports with the guys
    And know what it was
    I'd hook up with anyone I wanted
    And I'd never get confronted for it
    Cause it wouldn’t look weird

    If I was just straight
    I think I could pro-create
    How it feels to have a child
    I swear I'd love and cherish it
    I'd stand up for love
    Cause I know it is blind
    When you find the one you wanted
    Cause she may not be a woman
    And everything you want is twisted

    If I was just straight
    I would hoot at the girls
    Tell everyone there sexy
    So they'd think that I was manly enough

    I'd live in the now
    And not think of what I say
    Cause I know that its no secret,
    Expecting me to only love girls, love girls.

    If I was just straight
    I think I could pro-create
    How it feels to have a child
    I swear I'd love and cherish it
    I'd stand up for love
    Cause I know it is blind
    When you find the one you wanted
    Cause she may not be a woman
    And everything you want is twisted

    It's a little too late for me to be straight
    Say it’s just a small phase,
    Think I'd escape it like that
    If you thought I’d love by your rules
    You thought wrong

    But you're only straight
    You don't understand
    And you don't understand, ohhhh
    How it feels to love a man
    One day you’ll have a son who turns out gay
    You don’t give us our rights
    You don't care that its love
    Until you have a friend come out to you Cause you think we don’t exist
    And everything you knows from TV

    But you're only straight
