Born this Way by Lady Gaga

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

My mama told me when I was young
We're all born superstars
She rolled my hair, put my lipstick on
In the glass of her boudoir

"There's nothin' wrong with lovin' who you are"
She said, "'Cause He made you perfect, babe"
"So hold your head up, girl and you you'll go far,
Listen to me when I say"

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
(Born this way)

Ooo, there ain't no other way
Baby, I was born this way
Baby, I was born this way
(Born this way)
Ooo, there ain't 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 a drag, just be a queen
Don't be!

Give yourself prudence and love your friends
Subway kid, rejoice the 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

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

Ooo, there ain't no other way

Baby, I was born this way
Baby, I was born this way
(Born this way )
Ooo, there ain't other way
Baby, I was born way
I'm on the right track, baby
I was born this way

( Queen ,
Don't be , Queen )

Don't be a drag, just 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 were 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

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, yeah!

Ooo, there ain't no other way
Baby, I was born this way
Baby, I was born this way
(Born this way )
Ooo, there ain't other way
Baby, I was born this way
I'm on the right track, baby
I was born this way

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!

Top 50 Song Choice Analysis

1. Kanye West feat. Pusha T, ‘Runaway’
2. Kanye West feat. Jay-Z, Rick Ross, Nicki Minaj and Bon Iver, “Monster”
3. Cee Lo Green, ‘F**k You’

The music that has made the Top 10 [let alone the top 50] portrays an uprise of rap and pop music. It also portrays a disgusting highlight of profanity and sexual vulgarity that paints the picture of popularity in today’s music. Over 496,000 copies were sold during the first week [alone] that it was released [release date November 20th, 2010], although both of Kanye’s tracks listed above were released in October of that year.

While the language and themes portrayed are repeated throughout these songs, the widest consumers and listeners of these songs are in fact the American youth and/or under 30 years old. While, as a society, we frown upon the vulgar contents of these songs, we continue to allow our children to hear it regularly, and repeat the foul language or learn to appreciate the vile actions displayed through the lyrics as cool or normal.

America’s taste for rude and distasteful songs making the Top 10 list for “Popular Music” should bring anyone to believe that our country is irresponsible and vulgar in our songs [which would inevitably be traced to an assumption that the people are the same, for music choice is often linked to behavior and life decisions].
