The Little Monsters aren't going to like this one. Lady Gaga recently took to our favorite 140-character social networking site to tweet lyrics of her new single "Born This Way" and it looks like it might backfire.

The Prophet Blog is claiming that the pop phenom may have plagiarized the not-yet-released "coming out" song which the singer claims she write alone. But peep this, the lyrics to "Born This Way" have some pretty close similarities to "I Was Born This Way" by Motown artist Carl Bean, released back in 1975. We'll let you be the judge.
