Seriously people?
Music is art. Art is a way of expression, and if Lady GaGa feels that this is the way she needs to express herself, then she should do so. You may or may not like the lyrics, but if she was to make songs that were created just to appeal to the larger audience, that wouldn't be way of "expression" because you're only expressing the lies about a world that never was and never will be because people are afraid from accepting the different.
The song itself, even though I may not agree on it's message, will probably make somebody out there in the world, who is probably depressed and thinking about ending his / her life over issues addressed in the song, will hear the song and smile. To make a
somebody smile, and who knows how much this smile have done, probably saved lives. In a world that focuses on bad, dark things and is addicted to the drama, while thousand of peoples are falling to the jaws of money-thirsty people thriving for more and more ways to get money no matter what are the effects, to make a person smile, in my opinion, worth way more than breaking records and selling millions of copies.
And if Born This Way succeeds in doing that, then kudos to GaGa.
Now this is what I am talking about! Go Gaga! 
love these
I don't think it is early for her to do this, especially on her lead single.
How do you know a song will flop based on two lines from it? Dumbest logic I've ever read.
Fierce.
