You Can't Pray The Gay Away lyrics

Brothers and Sisters

Prayer is a powerful thing

In these tryin' times, we pray

We pray hard

But

There are some matters

Where we would be better servants of the Lord

By accepting what he is

And not bothering him

Come on!

You can't pray the gay away

(You can't pray the gay away)

No matter what your preacher say

(No matter what your preacher say)

There's no fighting DNA

You can't pray the gay away

Mama, oh, Mama, you can't blame yourself

Just cause your baby boy took your high heels off the shelf

Daddy thought football would make a man of him

But now he spends all his time cruising the gym

You can't pray the gay away

(You can't pray the gay away)

No matter what your preacher say

(No matter what your preacher say)

There's no fighting DNA

You can't pray the gay away

Well, the Reverend Bill, at the Church of Christ

Says he needs reprogramming

(That boy ain't right)

Send him off to camp where he could get fixed

Had the Summer of his life

Never saw so many dicks

You can't pray the gay away

(You can't pray the gay away)

No matter what your preacher say

(No matter what your preacher say)

There's no fighting DNA

You can't pray the gay away

You may not know it

But you know lots of them

Statistically speaking

1 out of every 10

Every family's got one

You might call him Auntie Fred

Mama says he's harmless

Lest he's tryin' to give you head!

You can't pray the gay away

(You can't pray the gay away)

No matter what your preacher say

(No matter what your preacher say)

There's no fighting DNA

You can't pray the gay away

Hey! You can't pray the gay away

Amen

Hallelujah

Bless your heart
