[Verse 1]
F C Am G
two little boys, met each other on the playground
F C Am G
just like the rest, didn't stick out from the crowd
F C Am G
but between themselves, they knew that they were different
F C Am G
but they pushed it down, cause nobody would even listen
[Pre-Chorus]
F C Am G
their parents always saying "boy when you grow up, you're gonna find a nice lady, make sure you act tough
F C Am G
you'll be living a life like barbie and ken, cmon suck it up and forget this nonsense"
[Chorus]
G F C
what if he wants ken, not barbie?
Am G
why should he have to say sorry?
F C Am G
tell me do you even listen, to all the dumb shit you're slippin'
F C
we can love who we want to
Am G
don't say he's not supposed to
F C
if he loves ken, not barbie
Am G
he doesn't have to say sorry
F
no not to you
C
not to me
Am G
not to anyone, anyone, anyone
F
not to you
C
not to me
Am G
not to anyone, anyone, anyone
[Verse 2]
F C Am G
seventeen years old, feeling like a stranger at home
F C Am G
keeping his head down low, hide away so that nobody will know
F C Am G
avoiding mum and dad, when they're asking "who's your girlfriend?"
F C Am G
cause lord forbid they see, his true identity
[Pre-Chorus]
F C
his parents always saying "boy when will you see?
Am G
you'll be happy I know, it's just a woman you need
F C
you'll be such a nice ken, just gotta find your barbie-
Am G
make sure you act like a man, it's what you born to be "
[Chorus]
G F C
what if he wants ken, not barbie?
Am G
why should he have to say sorry?
F C Am G
tell me do you even listen, to all the dumb shit you're slippin'
F C
we can love who we want to
Am G
don't say he's not supposed to
F C
if he loves ken, not barbie
Am G
he doesn't have to say sorry
F
no not to you
C
not to me
Am G
not to anyone, anyone, anyone
F
not to you
C
not to me
Am G
not to anyone, anyone, anyone
