Lyrics for Stereotype
Recorded 15 Feb 2004. Vocals: Forster Park Choir & Daisy

How can you
Judge me do
Without finding out who I really am?
And who told you
That you’re better than me?
We are different but exactly the same,

So what if I am:
Larger, smaller, shorter, taller, stronger than you.
Don’t matter if you are:
Darker, lighter, weaker, brighter, wider than me.
I may be richer, poorer, younger, older, broader than you,
But it’s what’s inside that counts,
Being kind in large amounts…

Oh listen to the stereo and not the stereotype,
Oh sing into the mike but don’t take it,
Oh listen to the truth and not the hype,
Make sure that you have fun, but don’t make it.

Oh listen to the stereo and not the stereotype,
Oh sing into the mike but don’t take it,
Oh listen to the truth and not the hype,
Make sure that you have fun, but don’t make it.

Why do you
Dislike me
Just because I’m not your mirror?
I’m proud to say
That I’m happy this way
I had no choice in how I would appear.

So what if I am:
Larger, smaller, shorter, taller, stronger than you.
Don’t matter if you are:
Darker, lighter, weaker, brighter, wider than me.
I may be richer, poorer, younger, older, broader than you,
But it’s what’s inside that counts,
Being kind in large amounts…

Oh listen to the stereo and not the stereotype,
Oh sing into the mike but don’t take it,
Oh listen to the truth and not the hype,
Make sure that you have fun, but don’t make it.

Oh listen to the stereo and not the stereotype,
Oh sing into the mike but don’t take it,
Oh listen to the truth and not the hype,
Make sure that you have fun, but don’t make it.

Oh listen to the stereo and not the stereotype.
