TOOTSIE:
When they sCay you can't love
AmI think you've got Emit Gwrong
And you saCy you can't feel
AmWith a heart made of steel
But you cCadd9an't say that steel aiGn't strong
Well, if Cthat's who you are,
Just a Ammeaningless star in tGhe sky
Tell me wFhat is the meaning
Of wDmhat I am feeling if you are the Greason why
Now I may be dAmumb
But where I come fFrom
Folks say they're Cfine when I know that they'rGe blue
No, you don't kFnow you the wGay I dCo

Your kind is Ebfrail and weak
And I Cmwant to destroy yoBbu all
You're a Ebsorry disgrace
To the Cmconcept of race
And to Ablogical science Bband law
But for Ebsome reason why
When you loCmok at me I don't Bbwanna be
AbProgrammed this way
AbBelieve when I say you're the one anomBbaly
You might not be sCmmart
But there is a Ebpart
Of me that's Abstarting to make a breaktBbhrough
No, you don't Abknow you the wBbay I dEbo

TOOTSIE:

When they say you can't love

Am Em G

I think you've got it wrong

And you say you can't feel

With a heart made of steel

Cadd9 G

But you can't say that steel ain't strong

Well, if that's who you are,

Am G

Just a meaningless star in the sky

Tell me what is the meaning

Dm G

Of what I am feeling if you are the reason why

Now I may be dumb

But where I come from

C G

Folks say they're fine when I know that they're blue

F G C

No, you don't know you the way I do

MEGA-GIRL:

Your kind is frail and weak

Cm Bb

And I want to destroy you all

You're a sorry disgrace

To the concept of race

Ab Bb

And to logical science and law

But for some reason why

Cm Bb

When you look at me I don't wanna be

Programmed this way

Ab Bb

Believe when I say you're the one anomaly

You might not be smart

But there is a part

Ab Bb

Of me that's starting to make a breakthrough

Ab Bb Eb

No, you don't know you the way I do

TOOTSIE:

Gb Eb

I never expected to find something like you

MEGA-GIRL:

My wires are protected from abnormal things like you

MEGA-GIRL:

Bbm Eb

When you know everything it is suddenly strange when you don't have a clue

TOOTSIE:

I don't know anything but you're giving me a clue

BOTH:

Cm Gm

If I can see past the surface

Finding the worth

That is hiding beneath

Cm Gm

Your life, and purpose

Ab Bb G

And all of sudden I feel like I've run into something that no one has seen
