[Verse 1: Tracey Thorn, Shura]
I was born a girl
Only just survived
Lucky little girl
Lucky to be alive
First breath (First breath)
All wrong (All wrong)
Here's death
So long

[Verse 2: Tracey Thorn, Shura, both]
I grew up a girl
Then I went astray
Didn't understand
The rules or how to play
Too tall (Too tall)
All wrong (All wrong)
Deep voice
Headstrong

[Chorus: Tracey Thorn]
Oh, I need some air
I need air
I need air
I need some air
I need air
[Bridge: Tracey Thorn, Tracey Thorn & Shura]
And I like the boys
The boys, the boys, the boys, all of the boys
But they like the girly, girly, girly, girly, girls
And looked straight through me
Like plate glass
Like fresh air
Like I wasn't even there

[Chorus: Tracey Thorn & Shura, Shura]
Oh, I need some air (I've got to feel free)
I need air (I've got to feel free)
I need some air (I've got to feel free)
Oh, I need air (I've got to feel free)

[Outro: Tracey Thorn & Shura, Shura]
And I don't care
I'm as free as air (I've got to feel free)
I'm pretending
You're not even there (I've got to feel free)
I'm as free as air (I've got to feel free)
I'm as free as air (I've got to feel free)
I'm as free as air (I've got to feel free)
I'm as free as air (Free as air)
And I don't care (I've got to feel free)
I'm as free as air (I've got to feel free)
I'm pretending (I've got to feel free)
You're not even there (I've got to feel free)
And I don't care
And I don't care (I've got to feel free)
And I don't care (I've got to feel free)
I'm as free as air
