lyrics:
Two little boys, met each other on the playground
just like the rest, didn't stick out from the crowd
but between themselves, they knew that they were different
but they pushed it down, cause nobody would even listen
Their parents always saying "boy, when you grow up, you're gonna find a nice lady, make sure you act tough. you'll be living a life like barbie and ken, cmon suck it up and forget this nonsense"
What if he wants ken, not barbie?
why should he have to say sorry?
tell me do you even listen, to all the dumb shit you're slippin'
we can love who we want to
don't say he's not supposed to
if he loves ken, not barbie
he doesn't have to say sorry
no not to you
not to me
not to anyone, anyone, anyone
not to you
not to me
not to anyone, anyone, anyone
Seventeen years old, feeling like a stranger at home
keeping his head down low, hide away so that nobody will know
avoiding mum and dad, when they're asking "who's your girlfriend?"
cause lord forbid they see, his true identity
His parents always saying "boy when will you see? you'll be happy i know, it's just a woman you need. you'll be such a great ken, just gotta find your barbie - make sure you act like a man, it's what you're born to be"
What if he wants ken, not barbie?
why should he have to say sorry?
tell me do you even listen, to all the dumb shit you're slippin'
we can love who we want to
don't say he's not supposed to
if he loves ken, not barbie
he doesn't have to say sorry
no not to you
not to me
not to anyone, anyone, anyone
not to you
not to me
not to anyone, anyone, anyone
No, no, he doesn't have to say sorry
no, no, he's never gonna say sorry
He always wanted ken, not barbie
he never ever has to say sorry
and nobody is gonna listen, to all the dumb shit you're slipping
we can love who we want to
don't say he's not supposed to
he'll always love ken, not barbie
and he doesn't have to say sorry
to you
